Suzuki has announced the third of a series of new models, joining the Swift and Grand Vitara. The SX4 is the Grand Vitara’s ‘little brother’ and it’s platform is a joint venture development with Fiat. Fiat’s model is called the Fiat Sedici.
The Suzuki SX4 was styled by Giugiaro’s ItalDesign. The car is powered by a 98hp 1.5 litre petrol, a 106hp 1.6 litre petrol and a 118hp turbodiesel. The SX4 will also come with a 2.0 litre DOHC engine for the U.S. market.
The transmission runs a three-mode all wheel drive system, which are 2WD, AUTO (AWD High) and LOCK (AWD Lock). Four speed auto or five speed manual transmissions are available.
The Suzuki SX4 is expected to debut at the Geneva Auto Show in March 2006.

Lovely looks. Although need to see the interior first. I love the new Suzukis, esp. the Swift.
And once you're used to the height of an SUV, you'll never want to ride in a low sedan anymore. Moreso in Malaysia where floods are commonplace.
it doesn't look like an suv.
NICE , I LOVIN IT
buy one for me kthxbai
the new trend, small SUV like kembara, getz…
somehow i feel it look like hyundai getz.
who design hyundai getz ? is it Giugiaro’s ItalDesign also ?
there are shades of the hyundai matrix don't u think?
I am really sorry to all SUV fans but I really think that SUV now days should stand for Stupid Useless Vehicles (SUV). But not all SUV's are bad. Some are nice like rexton, BMW X5, toyota fortuner. Although some like the Suzuki SX4 are just plain ugly to me.
The front look resemble 'a bit' of its big brother the Grand Vitara. It got a nice look on the front, but for overall look, I don't favour it much. Taking a peek at the side profile looks kinda funny to me. It seems too 'heavy' at the front. All boobs and no butts kinda thing.
By the way, Paul, is this model under SUV catergory or small 4×4 catergory? It look kinda representing both. If its a 4-wheeler, then I'll pass. If I want to go into mud and flood, might as well get a real 4-wheeler. I'd rather buy a second hand Ninja Turtle or Landcruiser II. Or just get the Land Rover. Now that's a winner 4×4!
SEE FU arrr. What kind of 'poison' you use, huh? Paraquat ka? The more I look at the Outlander the more it appeals to me. Haiya! I take back my words la. Hehehe.
Savvy front design should follow this one, then possibly can be acceptable as 'my first lotus'…
coool.
huh Grand Vitara reminds me of Monster Kojima or tajima.. bleh whatever, Escudo Grand Vitara used for Mount Climbing rally.
real HP there….
how much it cost ah?
pendek: Monster Tajima's Escudo uses two engine. Sure got real HP maa. 900+HP. A sure winner la at the Annual Pike Peak Rally. =)
lol…. again cannot recall but seem like hyundai model .. arghh
SX4…??? Sounds like '4Sex' hehehehe
From my observation, something look like a hybrid of Kia Rio and Matrix. It's nice.

YAU MOU GAU….CHOR!! cheer!

Like Matrix and Aveo size oni… Super small. Too small to be registered as an SUV in my head.
Eeks!…hyundai matrix lookin shape…esp the tail part..
like the new kia rio….dono y ppl obsesed with such cars anyway…
just wanderin'….if it's true u can transfer myvi booking, i think i wanna cancel my booking for myvi,anybody interested. i booked right b4 launching suppose to get myvi anytime but loan not approved!..fed up already coz they insist on guarantor..mine is for auto premium.
Urgh… hideous!! SWIFT lagi chun!!
Well looks like GM now has the entire field covered when it comes to SUVs.. starting form this 1.5 machine, followed by the Grand Vitara then the S3X all the way to the huge Hummer H1 Alpha. Only the Kembara is smaller then anything GM has.
I'm sure the decision to build these SUVs came in the days when fuel prices were lower… really wonder if GM can keep themselves from going bankrupt.
yo, anybody seen the kancil special edition?
yup… the interior underwent some cosmetics change… nothing special, but enough to differentiate it from the usual kancil… y?
gosh… the italdesign name shocks me..
the rear design might be "whoooosh!"
Suzuki's favourite colour dude..
Cannot wait to buy one! Already one Vitara and I'love to trade our second car for this one! Great idea!
Shift the name around and you'll be having Suzuki 4SX="Suzuki for Sex".
hahaha…
from the side looks like peugeot or saxo
once again Suzuki stick w/motorcycles. Not cars you don't belong there. shame
Arghhh!!! i hate suzuki….but accept the wagonR la….
is it SUV???? tk nampak mcm SUV pun???? the front looks like VW golf
i saw a few of this in miri oredi
