wow what a copy! There was an article about design trends in the car industry in the german newspaper Frankfurter Allgemeine this month that was raising the question how much the car design studios are like a copy shop business. of course there are also the millions of government restrictions that make cars look a like, but the front of the suzuki could be a VW or an Audi or with some twink of the eye a BMW ...its that blunt of put together copy.
(wait - did I just say VW is copying BMW?)
disappointing!

this looks nothing like anything you mentioned aside from 4 wheels and doors. if anything it looks lexus-ish from the front but still unique IMO. it looks Japanese not German. I like it.

Sorry man its looks like Suzuki not bmw or Audi! Its totally looks great specially its rear and its rear fender unlike other Japanese brand.

The overall design is great. I love the chopped windows and high shoulder line. However, the grille apes VW/Audi way too much to give Suzuki designers the credit that should be due! This is madness.

This is surprising for a Suzuki. I actually really like it, but looks a tad bit like the Jaguar XF.

it seem to look like Lexus LF-A concept. However, it still have a good look at the tail

This is the third and probably the most tame looking of the three, I don't like the rear but the front end is really cool!

Oh, common...Dont you see the great influence from Opel's concept GTC and Insignia?

I LOVE IT! Suzuki is trying to build their image in North America and this is just the vehicle to help with that. Now if they put as much performance in this car as they do in their bikes then it will be a winner.Low price, High performance, that should win over a few customers here in the states

sorry trailer, but in relation to this suzuki the insignia looks crappy?

THIS IS SOOOOO COPIED... headlights from BMW 3 series, grille from Audi, chrome wheels from Lexus. This thing's bonnet resembles a toilet lid.

have you ever seen a 3 series? these headlights are not the same, and the grille - honestly. the Germans need to produce some mid line cars that look this good.

this is a beautiful car it does not look like an Audi because Audis are cars for useless snobs.

Audis are supposed to look alike, ITS THE SAME BRANDS PRODUCTS. However, other manufacturers should not intentianally copy a successfull design theme. Copying of technical themes is only expected, but design? Thats what brand indentity is for. So your brand can have its "OWN IDENTITY"! Have you ever seen a modern Audi?

Looks awesum!! Its so sleek and sexy..yum! But yeaa..definately Jaguar XF inspired headlights and body shape + Audi grille.
March 22, 2008 1:01 am
Audi grille....no questions about it. Headlight of a 3 series...Whats is the vehicles identify? Grille? please...

So, the double kidneys don't make a Bimmer a Bimmer? And the Spirit of Ecstasy flying on a center mounted, highly polished, vertically slatted "washboard" don't make a Roller a Roller? "Not to acknowledge it doesn't mean its not true. That...just means you're ignorant." -Eisenhower

What are u talking about? Ofcourse those things make up those vehicles....what has this car got thats original and can be used as an identity? Something that makes people see it and think that has to be a suzuki?
Im not saying the design is bad, but not very original.
