Suzuki Baleno hatchback Show Availability

Finally, we can consider the new product, which will debut in Frankfurt in September

When, in March we saw at the Geneva Motor Show concept Suzuki iK-2, his style we called controversial, but because of its design remain at the serial car, and that will remain a one-off experiment, it was completely unclear. Later, the Japanese showed a snapshot of the serial car in profile, but this view did not give a real idea of ​​the appearance of a novelty. And finally, the company publishes photos of its new products - Baleno. Under the name of such a compact hatchback will go into a series and, I suppose, would be the replacement model Swift.

If the appearance of the concept iK-2 seem contradictory to you, then Baleno, probably you will not charm: ready to develop the prototype inherited all of its main features. Although, when compared with the "Swift" is a big step forward: after all, no longer young Swift (the current generation is produced since 2010). And in terms of the practicality of the new product will clearly be preferable: the length of iK-2 was superior to the current Swift - 4023 mm against 3850 data for the serial car were not disclosed, but judging by the pictures, the size Baleno and concept, and if different, not much .

With regard to the technical stuffing, Suzuki is trying to keep the intrigue until the last. It is reported that the car will receive a 1-liter turbo, but the characteristics is a secret. The car will appear in public for the first time at the Frankfurt Motor Show in mid-September - and then all the details will be disclosed.
Meanwhile, it became known that the alliance Suzuki and Volkswagen officially came to an end.
