Once you get to know the Kizashi, you'll like it. Value-packed and honest, ours has features like an iPod jack, making it easy to control music through the stereo system, and Bluetooth. The cabin isn't all that exciting, but the car as a whole continues to win over the staff.
Notes senior editor Jonny Lieberman, "The more I drive the Kizashi, the more I like it, especially when you consider that our well-appointed tester stickers for under $23,000, about what you'd spend for an equally powerful and similarly equipped Jetta. Of course, the Jetta now has a torsion-beam rearend-fine for most people, but the
SUZUKI KIZASHI is the better handler. And in fact, the better car." This is arguably the best car
Suzuki has ever made. Associate online editor Scott Evans adds, '"What is that?' I get that same question from everyone when they see the Kizashi, including a guy who's done business with American
Suzuki in the past. It's the best car no one has heard of."
