The Suzuki SX4 Crossover is a small five-door wagon that comes standard with Intelligent All-Wheel-Drive (I-AWD). It is reasonably sporty and offers versatility with the looks of a stylish mini-SUV.
The SX4 is available in three trims: Base, Convenience, and Touring. The SX4 is powered by a 143 hp 2.0-liter all-aluminum four-cylinder engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission (four-speed automatic is optional). Standard features include front, side-impact and side-curtain airbags, and four-wheel-disc antilock brakes.
For 2008, a sport sedan has been added to the SX4 lineup. The front-wheel drive sedan comes with 17-inch alloy wheels and upgraded shocks. The SX4 Sport sedan uses the same powertrain as the wagon and is also available in a Base, Convenience, or Touring trim. Upgrades for 2008 include a new power fuel door remote release. Also available is Bluetooth, automatic climate control, sport pedals, and heated outside mirrors.
This car is really a comfortable ride, it can be bumpy at times, but other than that is is a real fun time to drive, this car is fuel economic, but not as good as someone would expect. The car has an OK acceleration speed for its price, it can get from 0-60 in about 9.52 seconds, it is really stylish, and has a nice look to it, I would recommend this car to new driver that is looking for a fun ride, at a low cost.

So far I have almost nothing but love for my new SX4. It is very fun to drive. Low displacement allows for high reving with good mileage. It also corners very nicely and has many comfortable features. A very nice car for the price and very well equipped. I am very happy with the car so far,and would recommend it to anyone.

This car is my 5th Suzuki and the best one so far! It's easy to park, drive with great visibility with all the windows. The color (copper) is what attracted my attention, but I love the keyless entry and ignition too! Mostly town driving and am getting 23 to 24 mpg.

This is fun to drive and suspension is great for a small car and very stable when driven at high speed. So far it has been a lot of fun to drive and is getting good mileage which is what I was looking for. I have owned Suzuki's in the past with great reliability and value. For the price it is a hard to beat vehicle.

Man I love this car! It looks small outside, but is it ever big on the inside. All the standard features in this car are awesome (see favorites). Who would believe I could get a gas saving AWD, fully loaded, for less than a Nissan Versa, Honda Fit, Hyundia Elantra, or a Toyota Matrix. A standard GPS device would be nice - I hear that a GPS will be standard on the 2009 models.

I just traded in an 06 Forenza for the SX4. All I can say is wow what a diffrence. I love this vehicle. the way it handles and drives is no comparison to the Forenza. I have the top of the line Touring Edition it's well worth the extra money for the options you get. The keyless entry and start are really good. I would reccomend this car to anyone looking for a great car for good value.

I have had the car for six weeks and have put 3000 miles on it so far. The handling is better than my Volvo C30. I love this car to pieces! It has saved us so much money and it feels like a sports car! It is comfortable and the stereo rocks! Way to go Suzuki and thanks so much from me!

This is a great car-nimble and fun to drive. Have it for 3 months and so far I have encountered no problems. I really like its keyless feature-you don't need to insert key to start the engine (like an expenssive car). It's highly recomended.
