Introduction

Suzuki SX4 - 2007 Review: You've heard about all the big car awards. You know, like Car of the Year, Truck of the Year or Most Significant Vehicle. But are you aware of the Best Kept Secret? You are if you've heard about Autobytel's Editors' Choice Awards. This year, we put that title on the 2007 Suzuki SX4, an all-wheel-drive wagon that stickers for less than $16,000, has room for five, is a versatile little hauler and is covered by a 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. We've done our best to increase awareness for this worthwhile vehicle, but until Suzuki increases production and puts forth some advertising, it's destined to remain a secret between you and us.

Why We Drove It

Small cars - everyone's talking about them because of the price of gas. Extended warranties - even if we only keep the car six months, we all like a product that's backed until it literally falls apart. Utility - we live in a consumer society, so we need vehicles that carry all of our stuff. All-wheel drive - so what if I live in southern California - it rains here, doesn't it? All are points addressed by the 2007 Suzuki SX4, a little crossover wagon thing that, at $15,594 (including a $595 destination charge), is the least expensive all-wheel-drive vehicle on the market. For those reasons and more, the SX4 easily deserved a week of our time for evaluation.
