I bought a sx4 crossover hatch back. Sedan version to me just too common looking; not much to differentiate from others.
Do try to check out the sx4 hatch back version,it’s a beauty….especially for young to mid age ladies.

to consider reducing slightly lower the price from RM79K after taking into consideration of its lower second hand value.

In terms of its looks, superb, sporty + elegant.

Hopefully with this positive remarks can get special price from the Suzuki dealers.

I think the car in question is not the VVT version. If you guys look at at the global Suzuki site, there’s a VVT and non VVT version of the SX4. The non VVT version produces 74Kw/100ps@5600RPM and 140nm@4000RPM, while the VVT version produces somewhere between 74Kw-79Kw/107ps depending on the country of origin.

However, this is not written in stone apparently. Indonesian SX4 (CKD & CBU) both have a 100ps 1.5L VVT engine… But how? It is stated clearly on the Suzuki website that the are no 1.5L VVT engine on the SX4. But there IS an oil valve control that controls the VVT mechanism. There are no concrete answer for this one, but it seems that Suzuki uses a “dumb” chip so Indonesia bound SX4 are able to drink the shitty fuel quality we have here.

So perhaps that explains the low horsepower number on the SX4 sedan bound to Malaysia.

Although it’s pricey compare to other sedan in it’s class.
I would say that the quality of SX4′s interior beat it’s competitor.
The design of the dash is nice compare to vios, city, latio. And u got an automatic air conditioning, not those manual type like vios, city, latio’s air-con.
PLUS, it’s a fully imported unit from japan. It’s not like CKD’s latio, city (Correct me if i’m wrong ). So the quality will be better.

Another option to choose instead of Toyota, Honda, Nissan sedan car. This should be a rivalry to Toyo Vios, Hond City n Niss Latee oh …

I dun no about SX4 sedan, but the look is good. i own a swift sport ( M ) , the quality is good . for normal swift, CKD and CBU different is not in performance but in quality. i m so confident the QMS and process control in japan is far away better than in malaysia , thailand.

but the price for 1.6 sedan is bit expensive. if suzuki malayisa really 1 2 use this sedan to beat vios and city , they should lower their price.
they should think about point of differnet for this SX4 sedan.

Vios type s around RM 88,000 versus SX4 Sedan RM91,437 .

i doubt many gonna reach for d cheque book in a hurry for this. it’s interesting to note that car makers seem to be outdoing each other to make d most visually impaired design. first d city, then latio and now this…hmm.

i think this car is so so only. of course its a change….but uninspiring car. just running off the halo image of the swift. would be nice to see it priced exactly like the vios.

Dun forget this is a CBU unit as oppose to CKD units of Vios n City…i haven’t step into the SX4 sedan yet but from the pricing…it’s not that expensive in comparison with the other CKD model….esp. Vios….
PS: the high pricing is a reality….can’t deny n there’s no escape from it….v just nd to evaluate base on its price as compared to other cars sold in M’sia..nt others countries…

This is a nice design even the quality is good, this cars look sporty. and it look stuitable for age 18 to 24 year old. i like the Azure Grey colour. especially this is CBU unit compare with CKD is still the different, even the quality i would rate 4 star. All of can see in american people mention this cars provides a welcome altenative to all those civics, corollas and sentras. good cars !

Notice that they never show the side profile… with that squashed upturned butt, it looks like a dog doing it’s … err… business by the road. Quite a turn-off. I understand that it’s targetted at the American market – apparently Americans hates hatchbacks (“College Cars” they would sniff). “So let’s slap on a boot to meet the Yanks’ demands” says Suzuki Japan. To hell with good taste.

In Singapore, it range as the most cheapest model among City, Vios & Latio.
Gain the most economical car status but not here inconsideration of its price higher then City or Vios.

i would still prefer the toyota or the civic. my SEG corolla 1.6 is still going strong after 13 years on the road.

I have seen it at the Curve Damansara and frankly, I prefer the hatchback version which look much nicer than the sedan. Another thing is, what Dr_Carz said is true. I do not own a Suzuki but I do test drive the Swift Premier edition a while back and by god, I’m in love with the overall performance and quality! Too bad that time my wife strongly stated she wants a sedan…sigh!

Hmm the combination of the A pillar and the tilted rear looks weird. And its rather under power imo.

Yup indeed as other commenters have said, it’s just too expensive. Want a cheaper and more frugal car? Get the swift….That’s a real contender to Vios or city for those who can’t careless about the sedan look.

the car is ok, but the price is slightly too high…. maybe some discount between 5k-10k?

However, malaysian market always depends on it’s resell value. People opt for Toyota/Honda due to it’s reputation and 2nd value. Doubt this will archieves it’s par head to head with Toyota/Honda or Nissan.
