Suzuki first reached its goal of selling 100,000 vehicles in the United States in 2006, but has struggled to come close to that figure in subsequent years. Part of the blame can be put on the downtrodden U.S. market, but Suzuki’s lackluster product offering is also at fault. In order to correct the situation, Suzuki is planning a product renaissance, of sorts, for the next four year.

To kick things off, Suzuki will improve upon its SX4 for the 2010 model year. Improvements for the 2010 model include a more powerful engine, a CVT transmission and the addition of a hot-hatch model.

Suzuki will follow up the 2010 SX4 with its all-new 2010 Kizahsi sedan. The Kizashi was rumored to receive four and six-cylinder powerplants, but the mid-size sedan will only be available with a 2.4L four-pot at launch. A V6 could eventually be added to the mix, but a hybrid version of the sedan will likely bow first for the 2011 or 2012 model years.

In order to capital on the small car boom in the U.S., Suzuki will launch its Swift model for the 2011 model year. The Swift is a popular model in Japan and Europe, known for its style and excellent fuel economy. The U.S. version will be powered by a 123 horsepower 1.6L engine.
