Suzuki SX4 2011 Review
By Craig Duff · 30 Aug 2011
The Suzuki SX4 has been the baby of the small car SUV segment since its launch in 2007. The front-wheel drive version is the smarter choice, though. It cuts out the cost and complexity of the AWD system to be a good-looking and reliable hatch and it is being run down by the latest models from Asia. Queue equipment upgrades and price trims.VALUEThe latest update sees the front-wheel drive models start from $18,990 and the switchable all-wheel drive version at $21,990. The 2WD has picked up the flared arches that were previously reserved for the all-paw versions so there is externally no difference in styling. That should make the front-hooker the more attractive buy for most.I'd tip the $3000 into the higher-spec S model, which, no surprise, costs the same and brings with it cruise control, climate airconditioning, fog lamps, rear spoiler and a nine-speaker sound system. Nissan's Tiida hatch undercuts the SX4 by $1000 but has four airbags to the Suzuki's six, making the Kia Cerato its closest competitor at $19,640.TECHNOLOGYThe 2.0 litre engine in the SX4 was a work of art four years ago. Now its power and torque figures (112kW and 190Nm) are matched by the opposition, but it still has the edge in fuel use, especially with the six-speed manual. The continuously variable auto doesn't come close. It uses more fuel and is less fun but at least the drone under acceleration will encourage owners to ease up on the right foot.The suspension is MacPherson struts up front and a torsion beam rear and it does a decent job of keeping the Suzuki on track. Hit a big enough pothole at speed, though, and the rear end will thump and jump.DESIGNRoof racks are now standard across the range and help raise the Suzuki's profile, while the flared guards lift it a touch above the average inoffensive hatch/SUV shape. The interior is functional rather than fancy: the hard plastics aren't class-leading, the seats are supportive but could do with more padding and the 250-odd litres of luggage space is what you'd expect in this segment.It looks roomy from the outside but the rear seat is limited to two passengers on a journey of any decent length. Keep it to a foursome and the upright seating position at the front not only help get in and out of the car but mean the seat can be sli d forward to give rear passengers legroom.SAFETYSix airbags and the usual software give the SX4 solid safety credentials. It was tested when released in 2007 and earned four stars from Euro NCAP. The brakes bite hard and don't fade, probably because the Suzuki's 1200kg weight isn't too much of an ask. The ABS system is fine on tarmac - with the 2WD model, Carsguide didn't play with it off-road - and the tall(ish) body doesn't affect its stance through corners.DRIVINGThe SX4 punches above its weight on the road and can be a reliable runabout during the week and still provide some entertainment on weekends. The steering is super-light at carpark speeds and helps make the Suzuki one of the best of the bunch to park. The response stiffens as the pace picks up and while it's never going to be a precision weapon, it is up to the job of pointing the car in the right direction.It can't rival the latest crop of cars for refinement, though. The engine/auto transmission matches on vehicles such as Hyundai's i30 and the Toyota Corolla are better - and the auto will be the preferred choice for most buyers in this class - and the Suzuki also lags on the quality of the interior plastics and the way they've been put together.VERDICTThe SX4 is a good car in a field of great new ones. As an entry level car in the small car class it does the job but needs a new automatic and improved interior to be a class leader. The price cuts/equipment upgrades make it a better buy but it is a common tactic for mid-life models and Suzuki's rivals are playing the same game. The good news is that gives buyers cause to bargain hard.SUZUKI SX4 HATCHPrice: $18,990 (SX4), $20,990 (auto)Warranty: Three-yearsResale: 58 per cent after three yearsService intervals:Engines: 2.0-litre four-cylinder, 112kW/190NmBody:  Five-door hatchWeight:  1215kg (manual), 1255kg (auto)Transmission: Six-speed manual, continuously variable auto; front-wheel driveThirst: 7.3 litres/100km, 170g/km CO2 (manual), 7.6 litres/100km, 178g/km CO2 (CVT)"It wins on the performance/economy equation but the interior is dated"

Used Suzuki SX4 review: 2007-2009
By Graham Smith · 10 Mar 2011
Just when it seemed Suzuki was about to drop off the radar the company launched a whole new range of cars to kick-start its presence in the market.The rebirth if the brand began with the new Swift, which was greeted with great enthusiasm by the motoring press and public alike, and that was followed up by the SX4.  The sports-crossover SX4 had proved popular when launched in Europe and Japan and the company hoped it would restart sales here as well.MODEL WATCHInitially there was just one SX4 model, a cute four-wheel drive go-anywhere five-door hatch, but it was joined a few months later by front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive sedan and hatch variants.That first hatch was a pretty little car with neat, modern lines, and lots of glass for an airy cabin. By contrast the later sedan and hatch versions weren't as attractive with slabby sides and a rather clunky appearance.All models had a 2.0-litre double overhead camshaft four-cylinder engine, which boasted 107 kW at 5800 revs and 184 Nm at 3500 revs, enough to make it a willing performer for anyone prepared to stir it along through the gears.  The gearbox choices were a five-speed manual or four-speed auto, and both were geared to get the SX4 moving off the line.Final drive varied depending on the model. There were the regular front-wheel drive models, the all-wheel drive that drove through the front wheels with drive going to the rear on demand, and the four-wheel drive model.The latter used Suzuki's intelligent all-wheel drive system, which was controlled by an electromagnetic wet clutch and was selected using switch on the centre console.It could operate in front-wheel drive mode, active all-wheel drive mode, in which drive varied as needed from 95 per cent to the front to a 50/50 split front to rear, or as a locked diff with a fixed 50/50 split for better traction in the harder going.  Three models made up the range, including the base model, the S and the 4x4.All were quite well equipped. The base model boasted air-conditioning, power windows and mirrors, eight-speaker CD sound, remote central locking and immobilizer.  Once you took the step up to the S you also got cruise control, 15-inch alloys, fog lamps, and a leather steering wheel.At the top of the pile there was the 4x4 that had climate controlled air, 16-inch alloys, rear spoiler and cloth trim as well.IN THE SHOPWhile they've always been diminutive Suzukis have generally been reliable, thanks mainly to their quality engineering. The same can be said for the SX4.  Few complaints land at CarsGuide and readers tell us they're happy with their cars.The only time they see the inside of a workshop is when they're due for a service.  Servicing is very important on today's cars, which rely on fresh oil for a long life. Check for a service record that confirms regular oil and filter changes.  Also inspect the bodywork for damage that might be attributed to a crash.IN A CRASHThe SX4 had the basic safety features with dual front airbags, ABS brakes, brake force distribution and emergency brake assist across the range.  The S and the 4x4 hatch were better equipped than the base model; they also had side and curtain airbags.What was lacking across all models was stability control. When tested by ANCAP in 2007 the SX4 was awarded four stars out of a possible five.UNDER THE PUMPFuel economy was regarded as acceptable rather than special. Suzuki claimed it would average 9.5 L/100 km.OWNERS SAYWhen they road tested the SX4 Alec and Lynne Jones were immediately impressed by its comfortable, supportive seats, roomy cabin, easy-to-use controls, standing-start performance, and fuel economy. There only criticism is that they say the paint chips easily compared to cars they've previously owned. Everything else, they say, is excellent, and they rate it nine out of 10.Young mom Kim Maxwell downsized from a much-loved VS II Commodore Berlina V8 to a front-wheel drive Suzuki SX4 and after some misgivings about the Suzuki's size and four-cylinder engine she says the move was a great one.She loves the economy she gets, and says it has been perfectly reliable in the 37,000 km she has done to date. Her only criticisms are of the front quarter windows, which create a large black spot that requires care when making a turn, and the rear seat belts that aren't child seat friendly.If it weren't for the blind spots she would be happy to buy another one, but until Suzuki changes the design in that area she won't.LOOK FOR. Nippy performance. Good economy. Very reliable. Blind spots from front quarter windows . Four-star safetyTHE BOTTOM LINEA well-built and reliable small car that would serve the family well.  70/100Have you owned a SX4? Tell us your experience in the comments below.

Suzuki SX4 2010 Review
By Neil Dowling · 29 Apr 2010
The Suzuki SX4 has a lot appeal but that quickly wanes once you cut through the rather attractive facade.  This model, which basically replaced the old Liana and sits one rung above the highly-successful Swift, is a chunky five-door family hatch with all-wheel drive and a decent 2-litre engine. So it has all the

Suzuki SX4 S sedan 2007 review
By Paul Gover · 25 Oct 2007
The first SX4 landed in February and the range is already out to three models, with more to come and a target of 5000 sales for the full year next year.Eventually there will be a Suzuki pocket rocket, with a turbocharged engine and all-wheel drive, as the SX4 range expands and reflects the company's push into the World Rally Championship.An SX4 WRC competed for the first time this month at the Corsica Rally in France and, despite some glitches, Nicolas Bernadini got it to the finish.In Australian showrooms, the SX4 newcomers are the front-drive sedan and hatch, which have just joined the all-wheel-drive hatch that kicked off the line-up.They have been set against the conservative contenders in the small-car bazaar, led by the Toyota Corolla.“Our aim is to get a reasonable share of that huge small-car segment, within which there are many body types; and we believe we cover the whole spread,” Suzuki Australia general manager Tony Devers says.“Small cars are about 22 per cent of the total market now and we haven't had a presence there.”The SX4 is built from the same basic package as the baby Swift, but with a much larger cabin and a 2.0-litre engine. The new sedan is a genuine five-seater, but has more conservative styling than the hatch.There are two models, with a starting price just below the crucial $20,000 mark. Even the base car comes with the essential airconditioning and regular electric assists.The S pack, with alloy wheels and cruise control, is still pretty affordable from $22,990. The four-speed automatic is an extra $2000.Suzuki Australia says it expects to move about 2000 front-drive sedans next year.“Swift is still the number one seller for us, even with restricted availability from Japan,” Devers says.“It will be 9000 to 10,000 cars this year. And once the new SX4 comes on line in Hamamatsu next July we should have much better supply of Swift and SX4.“Suzuki is now on the road to being a global company. The SX4 tells us that Suzuki is not just a micro-car maker.”The SX4 has even sparked an in-house sales race between Suzuki Australia and the company in Chile, which has a target for this year of more than 20,000 deliveries.The result could be line-ball between Chile and Australia because both countries reflect a global drive built around new-age cars. On the roadThe SX4 sedan is a sweet little car. It is quiet, comfy and does everything you need. It looks good, too, though it does not stand out in a crowd the same way the SX4 hatch does.It gets along quite well, is light on fuel, and will carry five people with no trouble in a body that is noticeably longer than the SX4 hatch.Is that enough? For people who will shop it against something like a Nissan Tiida or a Hyundai Elantra, it will be just fine.And against the top-selling Toyota Corolla or my favourite Ford Focus, it has a considerable price advantage and plenty of equipment for the money.The biggest problem for Suzuki will be to get the SX4 sedan on to shopping lists, but that is what the WRC rally campaign; and the company's flashy new television advertisements; is all about.Suzuki plans to push a more youthful image for the brand, partly through the WRC program but also because the SX4 lends itself to tweaking. A monster sport body kit is already under way for the hatch. The company believes it can walk people up from the Swift as they need a more family-focused car.The SX4 sedan is a perky drive and still gets economy, which will be great for commuters. The manual gearshift is light, the controls are clear and simple, the sound system is fine for the price, and it rides and handles without any vices. It also comes with the safety gear you expect for the price in the class, and is easy to park.But it has a significant flaw in the back seat. The SX4 has a split-fold system that still leaves a giant step-up because the seat-back does not fold completely flat, a design drama that makes it impossible to load some long items into the boot.I also believe it could benefit from some Australian input on the handling, which is not as crisp as the smaller Swift. But it's a solid effort and a car that will be easy to recommend. The bottom line70/100Sweet little car that is a nice drive and good value. It also shows the potential at Suzuki. All anglesFast factThe SX4 will be entered in the full World Rally Championship from the start of next season.

Suzuki SX4 2007 review
By Mark Hinchliffe · 04 Sep 2007
Rear legroom also continues to be generous for this size sedan and there are three child restraint anchor points in the backSuzuki has halved its drivetrain and added a boot to give its SX4 small car a sales lift.The SX4 all-wheel-drive hatch was launched here in January as a small car with youthful and aggressive attitude.Now Suzuki is looking to broaden its appeal with the addition of a sedan and a substantial drop in price to a sub-$20,000 starting price.The AWD SX4, which attracted only 5 per cent import duty because of its clearance and all-wheel drive, costs $24,390 for the manual and $2000 more for the auto.Now, despite attracting import duty of 10 per cent, Suzuki has saved enough on the less complicated drivetrain to offer the five-speed manual SX4 hatch and sedan for the same price of $19,990 in GLX base trim.The better-equipped S trim level adds $3000 and the four-speed auto is an extra $2000. There is no price premium for the sedan right across the range.Suzuki Auto Co general manager Keith Carroll said the SX4 had been a success, representing about 10 per cent of sales, but the addition of two-wheel drive and a sedan option would further increase its share.“We would expect that SX4 will be about 12-14 per cent of our total sales this year,” he said.“It will add to the younger end of the market because of the price, but with the boot we have a car that will appeal to either end of the age range.”With lower clearance than the AWD SX4, the tidy small car looks neater and less gawky. While the AWD SX4 sits 200mm off the ground, the hatch is 175mm and the sedan lower still at 165mm.However, older drivers attracted to the higher hip entry point of the AWD SX4 will still find the hatch and sedan easy to access because of their generous roof height.The sedan variant has a massive boot for this class of car with little intrusion from the torsion beam rear suspension, a flat and serviceable cargo floor, wide and low access, but a temporary spare under the floor.Rear legroom also continues to be generous for this size sedan and there are three child restraint anchor points in the back.Carroll predicts they will sell about 840 SX4s in Queensland this year with 640 of those being hatches.Standard features are airconditioning, electronic power steering, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, eight speaker sound system with MP3 capability, electric windows, power door locks, and remote key entry and locking.On the safety side they get dual front airbags, anti-lock brakes, electronic brake force distribution, emergency brake pedal assistance and a four-star Euro NCAP safety rating that includes pedestrian safety.The S adds leather-wrapped steering wheel, cruise control, 16-inch alloy wheels, smart key entry, fog lights and side curtain airbags that go back to the rear seat.While the Suzuki's top-selling Swift Sport now gets electronic stability program (ESP) thrown in for no extra cost, the SX4 goes without this vital safety feature.Carroll said if ESP became available on the vehicle, it would be offered.“I would be hopeful that if we get it, it would be at a similar price,” he said.The chassis and suspension were re-tuned for the front-wheel-drive version, but the engine remains the same with peak power of 107kW at 5800rpm and maximum torque of 184Nm at 3500rpm.Suzuki service manager Mike Turner described the powerplant as 'bulletproof.'“Amazing but true. In Australia, we have never had a mechanical failure of this engine assembly,” he said.“This engine, with very few changes and the addition of a turbo charger, will power Suzuki's SX4 World Rally Car, due to make its debut later on this year.”Queensland's Suzuki importer, Suzuki Auto Co, this year expects to sell four times the number of vehicles it did three years ago.Their sales to the end of July were 5026, compared with 3970 for the same period last year.“That means we now are tracking more than 1000 vehicles ahead of last year,” Carroll said.Internationally, Suzuki would increase its 'fire power' by building new plants, he said.“There are new plants underway in Hamamatsu and even Russia where a plant is being built in St Petersburg.“The Russian plant is scheduled to come on stream in late 2009... They will boost our ammunition significantly and allow us to sell more than 3 million cars a year in 2010 . . . which will give us five per cent of the world market.”

Suzuki SX4 manual 2007 review
By Neil Dowling · 17 Jul 2007
It appears to be a question rather than an answer. One that a TV quiz presenter would start by asking: “What am I?” then throwing it open to frazzled contestants barely coping with a live audience and the knowledge three million people watching at home are waiting for the contestant to make a complete prat of themselves.The Suzuki SX4 is the answer to a question few would ask. It's a hatchback, but could be a wagon; it's not a 4WD, though it has all-wheel- drive; it's not really a sports car despite its healthy 2.0-litre engine.In a world of cars with a dedicated purpose, the SX4 is an anomaly. It can be all things to all users and that is its appeal. It will cope with some light running along gravel tracks, even a jaunt on firm beach sand.It is also nimble enough for the city and spacious enough for a couple or a young family.And carrying a price tag of $24,390 for the manual model, the SX4 may not be at the cheapest end of the scale, but it's still an affordable package. Especially when considering the small car has a personality crisis when it comes to its definition, not to mention the features and a four-star Euro NCAP safety rating that comes with it.The four-speed auto is a little more expensive, adding $2000.But the five-speed manual does a fine job with a smooth shifting gearbox. It will also give you a more frugal performance than the auto.The hatch styling lends itself to a versatile life and the roof-racks cry out for mounting a wave ski (preferably one less than the car's 4.1m length) or mountain bike, just to show you are the adventurous type.Inside, the SX4 seats four adults and has a fold-down rear seat to boost cargo space. It feels more spacious than your average small car, a result of the big windows and the taller height of the car perhaps.The cabin design is neat and exceptionally simple to use, although a little plain. But it comes with a high level of features for the price.Standard gear includes a CD player with audio switches on the steering wheel, cruise control, climate airconditioning, electric windows, rather large mirrors and a trip computer. It even has keyless entry and start. You keep the keys in your pocket to open and start the car. While this is unprecedented in the car's price category, motorists who like the tradition of having the keys in the ignition will find it unusual.The seating position is much higher than the Swift donor vehicle, which makes for good forward visibility, but incites body roll through fast corners and on winding roads.The drive train is as flexible as the cabin. Based on the Suzuki Swift, the SX4 is predominantly a front-wheel-drive. By simply flicking a dashboard switch, it becomes an on-demand all-wheel-drive, or, by flicking the switch again, a full-time 4WD.Use 2WD for economy and your regular daily driving in good weather conditions, on-demand auto mode for a rainy day and 4WD when venturing away from the bitumen.It all works well, but beware of the fuel consumption in 4WD. The combination of the 2.0-litre engine and the taxing drive to all wheels can result in drink rates of about11 litres per 100km. But for regular city driving in auto mode, we averaged about 9.7 litres per 100km.Fuel use is accentuated by the car's relatively small 45-litre tank.Safety gear also rates well, with standard dual front airbags, ABS brakes with brake assist and electronic brake force distribution. On the downside it doesn't get ESP, even as an option. It also misses out on a full-size spare tyre, promptly dampening any off-road aspirations and even clouding country trips.The windscreen A-pillars are thick — which is becoming a trend. This indicates high body safety but also creates an awful blind spot to the sides, so extra caution is needed.Those points aside, it's a user-friendly and engaging little machine. The engine is lively and only gets noisy at the top end of its rev range.Performance is best above 3000rpm, and has an energetic feel, although it still cruises nicely around 2000rpm. It delivers its full 107kW potential at 5800rpm, and the 184Nm of torque comes on at 3500rpm.The steering has quite a good feel to it, with good feedback as you turn corners, and is very responsive and easy to live with.When it comes time for quickly engaging the brakes, the SX4 pulls up quite nicely. A sudden brake from 80km/h showed a short braking distance, and some wheel slippage was evident in the wet, but it didn't affect the control of the car.It might not be the trendiest small car on the market, but with its “I want to be a four-wheel-drive persona”, it does have an attractive, youthful appearance.An SX4 is currently part of the CARSguide long-term garage. In our hands over the past few months it has done more than 3000km across a variety of terrain, from shopping centre car parks to winding country roads. Much of that mileage, though, has been around town where, thanks to Sydney's many below-par roads, it has had to cope with some rough riding. Several pot-holed parts of Parramatta and Old Windsor roads, for example, give a reasonable test of the car's handling ability.Suffice to say the SX4 bounces in and out of the potholes well.It also kicks along well on the open road. However, the level of road noise inside the cabin is a concern. Overall, the little car that offers something for everyone has many plusses that make it a competitive buy in a busy market.Suzuki's quirky little soft-roader offers a unique driving experience. Its unusual tall stance for a small car and its overall looks will polarise opinion.

Suzuki SX4 4WD 2007 review
By Kym Wheatley · 06 Jun 2007
So when it came to taking her for a ride in the Suzuki SX4, I expected a barrage of criticism about a nifty but frankly impractical car for city driving. But she loved it.Apart from the nice dark blue (Kashmir Blue) paint job and the aircraft-like control panel that lit up brighter than Halley's Comet, it was all about comfort.This meant the ease with which she could get in and out of the vehicle. She had no problems, unlike the struggle she has with my ageing Laser hatchback.She was also riding a little higher than usual and had a good clear picture of the road ahead again.I suspect mums with young children would also find the height of the Suzuki much easier to negotiate for baby capsules.But for the driver, a few negatives need to be stated.For a start, the boot space is small - my grandmother's walker wouldn't fit into it - unlike my little Laser. I found the five-speed manual slightly clunky, but I've been reassured they loosen up after a few thousand kilometres. There is a blind spot at the front where the car has an extended A-pillar and a slight noise issue at 110km/h.But there are plenty of positives.Number one is the keyless entry and keyless ignition. After initially believing this feature was more gimmick than useful gizmo, it proved surprisingly practical.Take the scenario of diving into a handbag searching for keys while holding six bags of shopping. It doesn't happen with the SX4. While the “key” needs to be very close to the car - in your handbag or pocket - the driver merely pushes a door handle button to gain entry, then turns the ignition starter.The SX4 has great handling around corners and the steering isn't too sensitive like many new cars. It was a nifty city driver, particularly when it came to parking.But the SX4 is an off-road vehicle and it needed to be put through its paces in the mud around Port Gawler. I'd never driven in the sand and mud and I'm sure my husband expected the car to get bogged and to be hailing for help. Fortunately, the water hazards proved far from that and the good grip from the 4WD ensures the driver is in control.For a small car at a good price of about $24,000, there are plenty of nifty standard features, including six-stacker CD, cruise control, roof racks, power windows, fog lamps and a leather-clad steering wheel.It has six airbags, an immobiliser and child-proof rear door locks.The SX4 is a great car for the price and a petrol miser. But don't believe me. Ask my grandmother.

Suzuki SX4 2007 review: snapshot
By Paul Gover · 07 Apr 2007
In a little over six months the SX4 will be morphed into a World Rally Car, complete with a turbocharged engine and four-wheel drive, to chase global motorsport success.The SX4 will also grow beyond a baby stationwagon to become a four-door sedan and, probably, a compact hatch before Suzuki has finished with development of its newest model line.The SX4 is designed as a crossover wagon, which means it is fine for young families but was really planned for people who want a wagon for carrying work. That could be dogs or bicycles or any other lifestyle accessory, including a child.It comes with a 2.0-litre engine, four-wheel drive and fully independent suspension, as well as six airbags, anti-skid brakes and even breakaway pedals for impact protection. There is a switch to lock the Suzuki in four-wheel drive, but it is basically an on-demand system. The price is sharp at $24,390 for the five-speed manual or $26,390 for the four-speed automatic.The SX4 arrives as Suzuki really gets going in Australia thanks to the Swift, which was CARSguide Car of the Year in 2005, and the Grand Vitara. All three show a new approach to design and engineering.Suzuki has put some fun stuff into the new wagon, including a keyless entry system. It also comes with alloy wheels, airconditioning, electric windows and mirrors, a tilt-adjustable steering column, audio controls on the steering wheel and a digital readout for temperature and fuel consumption.It is already doing well in Australia and causing problems for Suzuki. As with the Swift Sport, Suzuki can't keep up with demand."The car is putting a lot of pressure on us. We have just had the allocation lifted from Japan and they are expecting big things from us," Suzuki Australia sales and marketing chief Tony Devers says.He believes the SX4 is putting Suzuki on a lot of shopping lists. It will also expand the brand's following, particularly with younger people moving into their first new car, he says."We are getting a lot of people moving out of Subaru Foresters and Imprezas. They want something a bit smaller, but still with the all-wheel-drive capability."Subaru is the obvious rival, but really it's anything in the small-car area. And we have the SX4 sedan coming later in the year," Devers says.
