Suzuki SX4 Crossover 2011
In 2007, The SX4 Crossover model was first introduced, but what once was the Suzuki SX4 all-wheel drive hatchback is now called the Crossover, to distinguish it from the new SX4 Sport front-wheel-drive sedan. With a base price of $16,999, the SX4 Crossover is the least-expensive all-wheel-drive vehicle available in America.
Carrying a little extra weight relative to its competition, the Suzuki only manages 22 mpg city and 30 highway when equipped with the manual transmission. Switching to the CVT will gain one city MPG and lose one highway MPG, for a rating of 23/29/.
The AWD can also be switched to two-wheel drive, though fuel economy isn’t really impacted for the better.
The SX4 is motivated by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine putting out an improved 150 horsepower with 140 lb-ft of torque, enough to make it the most powerful vehicle in its class. Power is transmitted to the wheels through either a manual six-speed gearbox or a continuously variable transmission (CVT) is available.
The cab-forward design and high roof line provide excellent visibility and the cabin feels light and airy inside. Alloy 16-inch wheels, providing 6.9 inches of road clearance, are standard.
