Kizashi is India bound. Kizashi? Who Kizashi? What Kizashi? You might ask. ‘Kizashi’ though sounds much of a tongue twister; it is the name of the car Maruti Suzuki will be manufacturing in India in the near future to compete in the D-segment of Indian car market.

Suzuki Kizashi was first unveiled at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show and than at the 9th Auto Expo in New Delhi in 2008 as a concept car. This concept car of Maruti Suzuki is anticipated to be launched in India by 2010. Maruti Suzuki’s conspicuous absence in the D-segment will be filled with the advent of the Kizashi.

Expected to be priced at Rs10 lakh, Maruti Suzuki Kizashi will compete with Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, Skoda Octavia and the Volkswagen Jetta. Kizashi is likely to be powered by a 3.6-liter V-6 engine that produces 300 bhp, and equipped with a six-speed transmission and 21 inch alloys.

This sedan will come with a radical aero-dynamic design with a completely stylish look. The Kizashi will sport chic tapering headlights and elegant front design which is unusual in other small car models of Maruti Suzuki in India.

The Kizashi concept illustrates and infuses a high degree of “style and sensibility’ to car and we all hope that the appealing blend of space, comfort, style and passionate spirit matching Maruti Suzuki’s user-centered functionality and performace engineering excellence is rolled into one in the form of Maruti Suzuki Kizashi.

The race for small car continues!

Volkswagen enters the race and is targeting to produce better and lighter commercial vehicles along with an unnamed small car. The company has plans to roll out a slew of launches in the next two years.

The company desires to gain a bigger market share with the proposed launches. Following this approach, the company recently launched its exciting sedan, Jetta. Jetta is available in three versions priced between Rs 12.97 to Rs 16.67 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi).

Volkswagen Jetta is a tough competitor for the Skoda Laura, Honda Civic and Toyota Corolla. All these cars belong to the same segment and will definitely race with each other to get the maximum share of the pie. The upcoming small car will compete with the likes and performance of the Swift and Getz.

It is expected that some officials from Volkswagen will drive to India to study the Indian small car market and judge the requirements and demands of Indian consumers. The company is putting in assiduous efforts with a keen desire to make the car India specific.

The company envisions itself creating a benchmark in the Indian car industry with its upcoming models.

All those fans that were looking forward to buy Honda Civic Hybrid should be cautions. How different is the car from normal petrol/diesel run cars? Is it really produced less emission as it claims to be? These questions were raised by auto experts in US who made a study on the aspect.

The company claims that Civic Hybrid has one of the lowest car emissions of 109g/hm of CO2. This is even mentioned in the international websites. However, during a study it came to light that the emission was actually 171g/km of CO2. This is much higher than the standard rating of less than 140g/km.

Honda will be bringing its Civic Hybrid to India soon. So all those environmentalists who thought that Civic hybrid was the answer to all environmental issues need to re-think about it. Further, the Civic Hybrid will be costlier in India than in other countries as import taxes of 114% will be levied as soon as it lands in India. So think before twice before you buy the car.
