Suzuki is rolling out yet another Kizashi Concept at this month’s New York Auto Show. Suzuki unveiled the first Kizashi Concept at last year’s Frankfurt Motor Show with a sport wagon, and then the Kizashi Concept 2 debuted at the Tokyo Motor Show as a sleek crossover. Now, the Kizashi Concept 3 is a sport sedan that has been rumored to explore the potential power of a V-8.

Suzuki says the complete series of Kizashi Concepts will be on display in New York. The Kizashi Concept 3 will be the closest to production-ready of the three, according to Suzuki.

We don’t have much more information at this time, but check back during the New York Auto Show for the full skinny on Suzuki’s upscale sedan concept.


PRESS RELEASE:

LIVE! From New York: Suzuki Debuts Concept Kizashi 3 at New York Auto Show

* Concept Kizashi 3 makes global debut in New York
* Suzuki’s complete Kizashi concept series on display for first time
* Latest Suzuki concept fuses automotive passion, exquisite design and engineering excellence

Brea, Calif., (March 6, 2008) – The New York International Auto Show welcomes American Suzuki Motor Corp. on Thursday, March 20, as the company debuts its sleek and athletic Concept Kizashi 3, the final addition to its acclaimed Kizashi concept series. The Concept Kizashi 3, which suggests both Suzuki’s future design direction and stated intent to offer a larger, more upscale sport sedan, will be joined in New York by the North American debuts of the Concept Kizashi and Concept Kizashi 2.

The Kizashi concept series was developed by Suzuki’s Advanced Design Group to reflect a dynamic athlete in motion, taking its design cues from a strong, honed physique while displaying the performance, strength and style befitting a flagship vehicle. The design theme began with the Concept Kizashi, which made its debut at the 2007 International Motor Show in Frankfurt, and the Concept Kizashi 2, unveiled at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show last October, which further pushed Suzuki’s new design language. The Concept Kizashi 3 will represent the completion of the Kizashi concept series as well as providing a closer-to-production vision of a future Suzuki sport sedan offering. The complete Kizashi concept series will be revealed at the Suzuki press conference on Thursday, March 20, at 12:10 p.m. in booth 1215 at the Javits center.

Suzuki Kizashi concepts in the round and on the road

Suzuki is said to be unveiling the Kizashi 3 at next week's New York Auto Show, so we thought we'd refresh our memories about the Manga-styled Kizashi 1 and 2 concepts we saw at the Frankfurt Motor Show and Tokyo Motor Show. There's still no information about what powertrain (we've heard talk of a V8) or platform any car derived from the Kizashi concepts would ride upon, but we like where Suzuki's going with the idea. We expect that the Kizashi 3 may be nearly production-feasible, from what Suzuki has to say. Does this mean there's a sports sedan in the offing for Suzuki? Possibly. Or not. For a taste of what it might be like to see one of these cars actually out in the wild, we've turned up some videos of the concepts riding around in a digital world,
