2011 Suzuki Kizashi EcoCharge ConceptSuzuki’s Kizashi line consists of, well, just the Kizashi sedan. One particular engine, front- or all-wheel drive, stick or CVT. We do not mind-a fact attested to through the praise littering the logbook in our long-term test car-but Suzuki needs much more flavors of Kizashi if it would like to become a player within the mid-size sedan section. At the 2011 Ny auto demonstrate, the enterprise is previewing two instructions through which it could expand the Kizashi line: the hybrid EcoCharge idea along with the alternatively a lot more invigorating turbocharged Apex notion.
Suzuki Kizashi EcoCharge Hybrid
In the other end with the spectrum may be the kinder, gentler Kizashi EcoCharge hybrid notion. Combining a 2.0-liter inline-four producing 144 hp and 127 lb-ft of torque with a 20-hp electrical motor plus a six-speed automated transmission, the pearl-white notion is said to achieve a 25-percent acquire in highway fuel economic system. That might consider it in the 30 mpg of the latest CVT Kizashi-with its two.4-liter-to someplace about 36 mpg. Given that hybrids have a tendency to offer you better gains within the town than within the highway, its general mixed rating also could end up over thirty mpg.
