Maruti has lots of cars in small car segment starting from Maruti 800 , Maruti Alto , Maruti Wagon R , Maruti A-Star , Estilo , Maruti Ritz, Swift , Dzire, Sx4 and Grand Vitara. But there has been a vacant space for a luxury sedan in D-Segment which will be soon filled by stunningly beautiful and elegant car Kizashi.

Maruti Suzuki Kizashi First Impression
First impression of Maruti Suzuki Kizashi is very nice. I felt like sitting inside, trying it out and take it on a test drive. The feel of sitting inside Kizashi is good and comfortable. The quality of components is up-class and neat. The styling is elegant and impressive. The features are modern and well placed. The option of 4 Wheel Drive is a really nice add on for rough terrains. The large18 inch alloy wheels give it a look and comfort level of a comfortable and up-class luxury car. I this it justifies to fill void above the SX4 segment in terms of luxury and quality.
Price Of Maruti Suzuki Kizashi In India
Maruti Suzuki has made no official announcement of the pricing of Suzuki Kizashi, but it is expected to be in the range of Rs. 10 Lakhs to Rs. 13 Lakhs based on the options. Its going to be a good competition for Honda Civic , Toyota Corolla , Skoda Octavia and Chevrolet Cruze. I hope that Kizashi will create good sales for Maruti after it is rolled out because it has the qualities to attract the target customer with brand name of Maruti Suzuki and its largest service network in the country.
