2011 SUZUKI KIZASHI SPORT
Offered on both the GTS and SLS sedans, the Sport group adds a mildly revised front fascia, revised side sill moldings, extra chrome trim, and a trunk-mounted spoiler. Unique 18-inch wheels are two pounds lighter than before, and engineers blessed the Kizashi with a revised suspension setup, which lowers the ride height by 10 mm.
The suspension changes, it seems, are the extent of the mechanical upgrades gifted to the Kizashi Sport. Power comes from a 2.4-liter DOHC I-4, which is rated at 185 horsepower, and 170 pound-feet of torque at 4000 rpm. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, although a continuously variable transmission is optional. Selecting the CVT drops the engine’s output to 180 horsepower.
Inside, the Kizashi Sport receives a few unique touches, including revised front “sport” seating, along with perforated leather on the steering wheel.
