Portland Car Dealer: OTC Teams up With Suzuki to Modify a 2010 Grand Vitara
Ohio Technical College students are always modifying something, and there’s a new toy on their list: a 2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara. 
Known for its tremendous all-around value for families, the Grand Vitara will experience a whole new look this time around. Students will customize the Grand Vitara with a nautical theme, representing the harmony between Suzuki’s automotive and marine divisions.
Some of the exterior modifications to be included on the project are custom paint, massive tires and wheels, lifted suspension, bar side step and bumper, shaved door handle kit, and LED lights all around. The interior is just as impressive, with a DVD head rest entertainment system, refrigerator, back-up camera, surf board rear view mirror, and all weather front and rear floor mats.
The vehicle, which will also have major restructuring on the body to resemble a boat, will be featured at several major auto shows around the country in late 2011 and 2012. This will include Los Angeles, Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia, Denver, and New York.
We can’t image what the finished product will look like, and we’re really looking forward to seeing the end result! Read the full article from UTV Weekly and stay tuned for more news on this here and on our Facebook page!

Portland Car Dealer: Suzuki Kizashi Named Official Safety Car of the F1K Series
The 2011 Suzuki Kizashi has received praise from virtually every auto publication, and now it’s receiving a very different kind of recognition.

The F1K Series is very excited about the Suzuki Kizashi being our Official Safety Car. “Beyond being an outstanding sport sedan, the Kizashi is the perfect car to pace our field, as Suzuki’s GSXR-sourced powerplant is also the preferred engine of the majority of teams running in our Championship. – F1K Managing Director, Jon Lewis

Portland Car Dealer: Editors Praise Suzuki’s New Kizashi EcoCharge Hybrid
With the New York Auto Show in full swing, some wondered if Suzuki would deliver on its innovative new promises. 
Halfway through the show, Gas 2.0 reports that we have our answer with the reveal of Suzuki’s latest Kizashi concept, the EcoCharge Hybrid. This concept is a nice addition to the powerful Apex concept, and further illustrates Suzuki’s commitment to innovative, socially-conscious products. This reveal comes with optimal timing, as Americans continue to see fuel prices skyrocket.
The Kizashi EcoCharge Hybrid contains 2 cohesive engines: a 2.0L gas engine and a 15 kw electric motor. The two deliver a combined 144 hp and 127 Ib-ft. of torque. It also features six-speed automatic transmission, stop-start technology, and regenerative breaking. The EcoCharge’s 25% increase in fuel economy from the original Kizashi also presents a tremendous improvement.
The interior features advanced materials which require 84 percent less energy to produce, and the exterior boasts a striking design with a unique white satin paint job and LED foglight illumination. Stay tuned for more news on this vehicle as it rolls out!
Our basic concept was to attain substantial gains in fuel economy without the traditional sacrifices in drivability required with today’s mid-size hybrid sedans. The proof of our concept is that the Kizashi EcoCharge has the capability to deliver a 25 percent fuel economy gain in real-world driving through an electric charge to the powertrain system while still retaining the production Kizashi’s dynamic handling and braking advantages that make it a standout category performer. – Steve Younan, Director of Automotive Marketing and Product Planning for American Suzuki Motor Corporation
