Article comments for Full Test: 2007 Suzuki SX4 - We spent two weeks with this charming little hottie and found it to be, well, charming. Although it's a little light on frills, the SX4 is roomy, comfortable and cute. In fact, more than one person said our Racy Red test car looked like a candy apple on wheels. (more)

eric i know what you meant about to small. i test drove on for the 2nd time and decided i would the car would out grow my needs to quickly. believe it or not my 24 valve V6 zr-2 tracker is getting 21mpg city. havent even driven it on the highway yet. and the power, room and 4x4 is all great. The sx4 has alot of great features but the bottom line is underpowered (at least it surely feels that way) and too darn small as your Main car.

#20 of 27 Love my manual SX4 JLX by trixiechartwel

I just love my SX4 JLX...I live on the west coast, and this little vehicle is just what I needed. I had to order it (since I wanted a manual JLX in ocean blue...) but boy was it worth it! It zips me around quite nicely, and when the rain is coming down sideways and the wind is blowing..the AWD is great....fun drive, safe drive, and it looks fantastic!! Move over ugly little 4-cylinders...here come the great looking, great driving Suzuki SX4's!!!

The suzuki SX4 is a good car at a cheap price. The SX4 is originaly the Fiat Sedici a car with great quality.

Any impressions on the automatic volume control for the SX4?
I've had mine set at all three levels and it never seems to make a difference. I find myself adjusting the sound manually. Not the biggest problem, to be sure, but if you are supposed to have it, better you have it.

SX4 was co-developed with Fiat. I'm actually hoping Fiat re-enters the US market. They've got some great small cars and quality is way up from the old days.

I have to put mine on level 3 to get any results. It helps some, and I don't have to turn the volume down as much when I come off of the freeway, or up as much when I'm back up to speed. I agree that they should have given a broader range of adjustment, especially on a small car that has quite a bit of road and engine noise. I also have trouble getting enough contrast to read the display easily on a bright day. Overall, I think it's a great car, though!

#25 of 27 2008 SX4 FWD by oiric

I live here in Abu Dhabi, i got a black 2008 SX4 FWD (hatchback) stick shift they dont offer the AWD here but i still bought the car, it drives well and the torque is above average since it weighs only 2420 lbs. without the AWD.

The sx4 awd is the only sub compact to offer awd, it is unique. The only cars to compare it to are the more expensive Imprezza, Matrix, or Calibre. I think Suzuki made a wise decsion adding weight to the structure, I've seen the crash tests. Awd adds 250lbs or better why compare this car to a Fit or Versa?

Exactly, and many of us think AWD is much better than not. How does the GTR out perform the 911 afterall. I think this car is the best solution for inclement weather, and it is fun and strong all the rest of the time as well. Also the potential exists to mod this car into a wrx killer . $ 5000=turbo=225hp is anyone hearing me?
