2010 Suzuki Kizashi Pricing Announced
With Kizashi, Suzuki delivers sophistication and driving experience of a premium sport sedan for price of a modest midsize car
- Kizashi is the best equipped mid-size sedan starting under $19,000, with volume models averaging between $22,000 and $24,000.
- Kizashi offers the most standard safety features in its price class and already meets the NHTSA’s 2014 safety standards.
- The AWD Kizashi, available in all trim levels with CVT transmission, can be purchased for less than some of the segment’s volume leading FWD sedans.
BREA, Calif. (Nov. 5, 2009) — Tapping in to its heritage of building high performance outboard motors and motorcycles, American Suzuki Motor Corp. today announces pricing for the all-new 2010 Kizashi sedan (pronounced “Kee-Zah-Shee”) which will debut in dealer showrooms in December 2009.
The Kizashi offers a unique blend of dynamic performance attributes, premium design aesthetics and craftsmanship yet to be experienced in this category. Suzuki expands on its best-in-class platform while offering features more appropriate to the near-luxury segment. In short, Kizashi delivers a premium package and experience without the premium price tag.
With the well-equipped entry-level Kizashi S priced between $18,999 and $21,749 for AWD (plus $735 for destination and handling), a prospective customer enjoys an energetic platform, comfortable accommodation and expressive design for prices appropriate to a modestly equipped compact. This base price includes many standard features usually found in vehicles costing thousands more or as options in the competitive class. Standard features of the Kizashi S include:
- 8 airbags (front/rear side and curtain)
- Pushbutton keyless start
- Dual-zone climate control
- 9-speaker audio with steering controls
- EPS Stability Control and ABS
- Projector beam headlamps
- Power windows, doors and mirrors
- Ambient and footwell lighting
The FWD Kizashi SE will cost a mere $2,500 more than the S FWD M/T and will allow customers the benefit of the efficient and responsive continuously variable transmission (CVT), P215/55R17 tires on alloy wheels, power driver’s seat with 10-way adjustment (including power lumbar), 3-position memory driver’s seat, and leather wrapped parking break handle and steering wheel with cruise control. The Kizashi SE, with prices ranging from $21,499 to $22,749 (plus $735 for destination and handling), will be Suzuki’s volume model.
The luxuriously appointed SLS model builds on the GTS and includes leather seats, power passenger seat, heated front seats, auto dimming rear view mirror with Homelink®3 Universal garage door opener, heated outside mirrors, automatic rain sensing wipers, automatic headlamps and rear proximity sensors with audible warning and graphic display. Prices for the lavish SLS range from $24,399 for FWD M/T to $26,749 for AWD CVT (plus $735 for destination and handling).
