Maruti forays into Premium segment with Kizashi





India's largest passenger car maker Maruti Suzuki is now entering the premium car segment through its new offering Kizashi after it failed with two earlier attempts through Grand Vitara and SX4. This time around though, the company has left no stone unturned in making Kizashi.

Hold your breadth as we bring you the specs, the car houses a 2.4 liter petrol powertrain, comes with an all wheel drive option and features a sporty aggressive look, no doubt, the engineers have toiled hard at the drawing room designing this beauty.
