2010 suzuki sx4 Professional Edmunds ReviewSource: Edmunds...The base Crossover comes with the LE sedan's features and adds 16-inch wheels, a roof rack and a rear wiper. The Technology trim adds the LE Popular package sedan's features along with the navigation system. The Touring AWD adds the GTS's features, except it has 16-inch wheels rather than 17s. The Sportback comes only in loaded GTS trim, which includes the features of the Sport GTS sedan minus the CVT and MSN subscription, both of which are optional. Powertrains and Performance: Power for all Suzuki SX4s comes from a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine rated at 150 hp and 140 pound-feet of torque... |

2010 Suzuki SX4 Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...The sound? The sound. . . . Let me see. Imagine Lucy Ricardo stomping grapes in the vineyard, only the barrel is full of cats. The Suzuki makes a virtue of a functional liability, and that is its total vacuum of low-end torque. At any point under 4,000 rpm this engine is bereft of twist. If you attempt to take off from a stop in second gear, the car has the acceleration of a Russian novel. But above 4,000 rpm the torques come on hard and fierce, and if you cane it, it actually seems to like it. As you've heard me say before, it's more fun to go fast in a slow car than slow in a fast car. It's... |

2010 Suzuki SX4 Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...I worried about the weather -- nasty, slippery, side streets quickly accumulating snow. With chagrin I considered the car -- a compact, front-wheel-drive wagon, 150-horsepower four-cylinder engine, six-speed manual transmission, four-wheel disc brakes, 17-inch diameter wheels shod with "all season" radial tires. Great for dry weather, I thought. But I figured it would get trumped by the snow. I was wrong. The car was a mensch in a snowstorm. It maintained its footing on wet, icy roads, never once hinting at skidding or swerving out of control. On several Northern Virginia side streets where... |

2010 Suzuki SX4 Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Those are not even close to high mileage numbers I was expecting. In fact, bigger cars do better on the open road than the Sportback. The Ford Fusion, Chevy Malibu, Honda Accord, Toyota Camry and Hyundai Sonata all post better highway figures. Few likeable features Inside this little car, there was more than enough room to move around. The soft seats were fine for short drives, but a long highway haul would certainly leave your back in knots. However, when I did get the seat in a good driving position, I realized there was no room in the back seat for a person to sit behind me. The overall... |

2010 Suzuki SX4 Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...But smaller imperfections are your constant companion in this car: Over long stretches of less-than-smooth highway, my tester settled into a rhythm of up/down motions. We've complained of the same proclivities in crossovers like the Honda CR-V and, to a lesser extent, the Toyota RAV4. No matter where it happens, it gets old fast. The Inside Though the SX4's interior was on par with the competition a few years ago, Suzuki has since been leapfrogged. There are some highs: My test car's backlit gauges and silver dashboard accents looked sharp, and most controls operate with high-rent precision... |

CarGurus' Review for 2010 suzuki sx4Source: CarGurus
...Suzuki’s little SX4 offers a viable alternative to more mainstream nameplates at a very appealing price. |

2010 Suzuki SX4 Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Make no mistake, the SportBack has a hard plastic dashboard and center console, which drives some folks up the wall, and the turn-signal stalk feels cheap. However, the faux-metal trim is of good quality, and the steering wheel had a nice size and feel to it. The upgraded alloy pedals provided good grip. The gauges were easy to read. All in all, it feels well-executed for the price. What It All Means The steering has a nice weight, meaning it's not overly power-assisted to the point of being twitchy on the highway, nor does it require too much effort at slow speeds. It's also precise, meaning... |
