Under the Radar- the Suzuki Kizashi

Mid Size Sedan Quietly Earning Critical Acclaim

In their review of the 2010 Suzuki Kizashi, Edmunds.com says "Forget everything you know about Suzuki." For most people that isn't tough, as it's a common misconception that Suzuki only makes motorcycles.  

Fact is, Suzuki makes high quality cars too, and it's no surprise Edmunds.com named this Kizashi a "top recommend."  The car also received 5 stars in the consumer reviews section.  

"With the Kizashi you have a car that rewrites the book on Suzuki and possibly the midsize sedan segment as a whole," said Edmunds.  

Edmunds isn't the only outlet raving about the Kizashi.  The car ranked #1 in Customer Satisfaction in AutoPacific's 2010 auto poll.  They spoke to over 42,000 drivers of multiple brands, including Audi and Lexus, and the Suzuki Kizashi won out.  

In terms of specs, the Kizashi is one of the few cars in this segment to offer all-wheel drive.  Edmund's said "Everything about the Kizashi makes it seem a bit more upscale than its competition, yet it costs the same or less."  The Kizashi starts at $18,999.  

All drivers value safety, and the Kizashi excels in this department.  In Edmunds brake testing, the Kizashi GTS with its 18-inch wheels came to a stop in an excellent 114 feet. In government crash tests, the Kizashi scored a perfect 5 stars for front and side protection.

So what else do you need?  Get over to West Herr Chrysler Jeep Suzuki and take one of these machines out.  The Kizashi is also a solid snow car, so don't be shy!
