The SX4 hatchback provides a neat option for those looking for a five-door machine with a powerful engine, good styling and optional all-wheel drive. Power comes from a 143-hp 2.0-litre four-cylinder with a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic. All-wheel drive models also come with a low-range lock mode for the all-wheel drive, meaning the SX4 really can dig itself out of trouble. The engine is eager, and the reflexes are sporty. Inside, the Suzuki has plenty of storage space, supportive seats, and a good radio.

Pros

Optional all-wheel drive, good dynamics

Cons

Not visible enough against traditional competitors
