I really like a lot of the aspects of my Suzuki. I love the captain chair like armrests in the front seats of the car. If I ever need to put them up it is quick and easy. The head room in the car is also great. My friend is 6'5" and still has room to spare up there. The performance in the snow is also great, especially with snow tires, no skidding or slipping at all. Finally on the good stuff, It has a decent ride and responsive steering and brakes for the price paid. Now on to what I don't like. I find the build quality of the interior to be lacking. Some panel or knob is always seeming to come off in the inside. Second, the trunk space is abhorrent. There is so little space in the trunk! I just can't even think about doing many things because I don't have the room. Further, the leg room in the back seat is also horrible. There is barely any room back there when a normal sized person is sitting in the driver or passenger seats. The worst of all is the gas mileage. The gas mileage is way less than the predicted. It gets about .5 MPG less than the city driving estimate advertised and I do about half of my driving on the highway. AND it has a small gas tank to boot.

They take a licking and keep on ticking. This is the second Suzuki-built vehicle I've owned, purchased new in both cases, and in both cases these cars have consistently given me high gas mileage reliable transportation for the last two decades. I drive a great deal, travel a lot by car, and I cannot say enough about the good quality, comfortable ride and roomy cargo area of the SX-4.

This car has served me well. I have averaged 32 miles per gallon driving a lot to and from work. This hatchback handles well in snow and corners tightly on dry winding roads. The tall roofline allows upright seating which is nice for my six foot one inch frame. You can get a lot in the big trunk and the folding rear seats are a bonus. Am pleased with the vehicle which has held up very good. Cruise control is standard on all models, from September 2012. I bought one of these last year - it's a bit of mixed bag. The engine is quite powerful, but you need to be in the right gear and have at least 3000 revs on board. Tire noise? Much less than a Lancer. Handling? Quite good, but it has definite limits. Economy - quite good.
