Maruti Kizashi to launch in 2010

Kolkata - Maruti won’t come as the first name when you are thinking to buy a luxury Sedan or a sports car in India but they are desperately trying to break the myth by launching this concept car into reality. It is expected to be launched in 2010 and will compete with cars like Honda Civic, Toyota Corrola, Skoda Octavia and upcoming Volkswagen Jetta as it will also be placed in the 10 lakh cars bracket albeit a bit on the higher side as you can expect.
The crossover sports sedan car was first showcased at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2007 as the concept car and was also showcased in New Delhi in 2008. Kizashi literally depicts an athlete in motion. Let’s take a look at some other details of the car.
The car will be powered by a 2 litre turbo diesel engine or a four valve turbo fired 2 lit petrol Euro V engine. It is likely to have a six speed transmission which will be the first from the Suzuki stable. The large 21 inch alloy wheels will add to thecars’s glamorous look besides being lightweight and tough at the same time.
Maruti Kizashi is expected to roll out from its Manesar plant in India. Hope that this car won’t suffer something like nano has faced in India.
