Eibach releases Suzuki Kizashi Sport Pro-Kit
Suzuki’s Kizashi may only have just been launched in the UK, but already Eibach has released a fully TUV-approved suspension upgrade for the latest AWD Japanese Sports Saloon. The car has a superb chassis, with switchable 2/4WD as standard equipment, making it the perfect recipient for a subtle visual drop with improved dynamics. Kizashi – which in Japanese means ‘A sign of great things to come’ - represents an exciting new direction for the company and has been developed as the flagship model in the Global Suzuki passenger car line-up.
In standard form the car is finely balanced and a brilliant drive, but for those looking to achieve the ultimate in pin-point handling, without upsetting the Suzuki’s superb road manners, Eibach have released a selection of chassis upgrades to endow the Kizashi with unparalleled handling. This is achieved without inducing harshness or spoiling the car’s balance.
The new Eibach Pro-Kit lowers the car by around 20mm and offers a drastically improved stance, better turn-in and lower centre of gravity for decisive direction changes. Working in harmony with the standard dampers, the Pro-Kit rides at almost factory comfort levels, truly offering the best of both worlds. These are priced at £130.87+ VAT.

Improved cornering grip and steering feel
Ride comfort preserved whist still improving the vehicle handling (progressively wound)
