I guess they're good in snow. This is the only product Suzuki currently has that's worth mentioning. Me thinks this is what has remotely kept them in the American market- even if they aren't selling them by the bucketloads. In NY, I’ve seen a lot of them. I guess they’re good in snow.

Maybe its bland looking but it is damn near bulletproof. I would certainly take one over an Aveo, Caliber, Yaris - but the Fit is a different story. SX4′s are awesome.

Speaking of trunks, it is HUGE. I autocross mine and can carry my full set of race tires, tool box, floor jack, small cooler and chair in there, and still have plenty of room for little things here and there. It'll hold its own in the Stock class with the Mazdas too with the 5-speed. Handles great for a sedan. But I've only seen 1 other sedan on the road here in Florida and have only seen a couple of the crossovers, so they aren't big sellers. Plus my dealer went belly-up a month after I bought it, but there is another dealer here in town, so I'm not out in the cold.

Haven't driven one yet but if you go by consumer reports, they are extremely reliable so far. . . as in full red circles (that's the best) for every category as far as reliability goes. The look grows on you too. They survive this economic storm and they could end up being something of an automobile company,. . . after all they are doing good elsewhere Suzuki just needs to freshen up the Sx4.

This is a car that screams "Tune me" but only if SUZUKI shows what can be done with the car. It's a sweet little number that deserves more play.

Beside Suby it is only 4WD small car, that does not burn hole in your pocket. I test drove with manual it was very well put together car.

Actually, that is almost too bad because suzuki is one of the more unique small car marques out there, and it would be a shame for them to close up shop on our side of the pond due to lackluster sales. Anyone remember Isusu, and how they went from a full-line (sorta) manufacturer to SUVs-only, to 1 SUV (Ascender), and then they sorta died? This is what I see happening here. The SX4 is a nice small wagon, perhaps give the ever-bloated Impreza a good swift kick in the ass..but americans don't get small wagons as probably the best type of car there is.
