The upcoming 81^st Geneva Motor Show will witness the launch of Suzuki’s Swift S-Concept. As the name suggests the model is based on the Swift hatchback, which was launched in Europe in the autumn of 2010. The new Swift was enjoying some limelight on the back of winning 2011 RJC Car of the Year award. Suzuki’s concept was to develop a jazzy car with excellent performance.

Not sure about you chaps, but for me Suzuki is by no means associated in my brain with turbo engines and extreme power. Well, that’s about to change as I just saw the 2010 Suzuki Concept Kizashi Turbo — a car that made its public debut on April 30th on the Speed Channel’s Test Drive program. It was nicely painted in red, and I learned that under the hood now there’s a tuner supplied 16G turbocharger added to the 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine (originally doing 185bhp) that brings 100 more horsies to the powerplant, for a good 290bhp. What else can you wish for? Apparently a high-flow intercooler, an extreme spray injector, a blow-off valve and a velocity air intake to polish this diamond. I just can’t take my eyes off of it …

Not sure if you knew but Suzuki started a beautiful series of their Kizashi concept in 2007 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. First they released concept 1, then concept 2 and now in New York they’ve unveiled what could be “a final version” of the Kizashi. In Japanese, Kizashi means prelude and rumors say that the company is working on releasing a sports sedan by 2010 and will have a lot in common with Kizashi 3.

We are not certain about the specs yet, but the market is expecting a 3.6L DOHC V6 engine that will sport 300hp. Waiting for it.
