Overview & Reviews

A new variant of the Suzuki SX4 hatchback, the "Sportback," debuts for 2010. With visual tweaks, a firmer suspension and a lowered ride height, the Sportback adds some spice to the SX4 lineup. All SX4 models benefit from a new, more powerful engine and a pair of new transmissions: a six-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission (CVT), the latter of which replaces last year's four-speed automatic. Rounding out the SX4 changes this year are a restyled front fascia, a new instrument cluster, a height-adjustable driver seat, an auxiliary audio jack (delayed availability), a few new navigation features and some renamed trim levels.

• Awkward driving position, so-so cabin materials, limited range of AWD model.

  Superb Suzuki aka Fiat - 2010 Suzuki SX4
  By talledega66 - July 18 - 10:00 am

  The car has been simple to own, the maintenance schedule is easy with the timing chain instead of belt ( as seen on more expensive cars), the oil changes every 7500 miles, with a special we got free a maintenance package. Suspension is better than any other comparably priced compact sedan, even better than one I drove costing almost 10k more. It feels heavier really secure at all speeds, corners well. Overall the 150 hp engine is enough with manual 6 speed (I test drove automatic and it was also adequate), but not as much fun. The car gets attention, people always like the styling. For a small car theres a lot of head and leg room even in back, overall it was the best choice

  Awesome - 2010 Suzuki SX4
  By cnej - June 23 - 10:00 am

  I love this car. Its reliable, comfortable, a blast to drive with the CVT with manual mode. Style wise, very European in flair which I like and gets tons of compliments, my neighbor who drives a 09 VW Jetta, is in love with my SX4, and is trading her 09 Jetta on an 2010 sx4 on Tuesday.The gas mileage is actually better than its rated, I average 33 mpg. Steven Suzuki is amazing, the best customer service Ive ever had, even better than the Mercedes dealership where I bought my MBZ at. I dont even miss my C220!

  A good choice! - 2010 Suzuki SX4
  By mbroster74101 - February 2 - 10:00 am

  After test driving cars for nearly a year, I decided on and SX4 sedan, sport SE. Compared it to other compact cars, from cheap up to almost $30K this car impressed me most with performance & options, the low price was just an added bonus. I found it funner, more solid feeling than a Golf that cost $8K more,more features than mazda3, better looking than a civic!

  Decent Little SUV Alternative - 2010 Suzuki SX4
  By JDA - January 25 - 12:20 am

  This is my wifes new car. She loves it. She traded in her pickup for it due to heavy driving. It drives Very well and has good get up and go. The built-in GPS is a genius way to have one without needing a super expensive radio. So far my wife loves it. We were looking for a an SUV or minivan for her, but she saw it and said, "this ones cute." The price is also right for a new car. The dealer was very good and positive. We were also surprised with the $300 gas card! If youre looking for a nice small vehicle, definitely check it out. There is one caveat however. I am 59" and I cant find a comfortable driving position. This is meant for shorter drivers.
