SUZUKI SX4 2013-2016 Photos, engines & full specs

The Suzuki SX-4 S-Cross was the second generation of the small crossover from the Japanese manufacturer and it wasn't built together with Fiat, like the first generation.

After Fiat stepped back from its joint venture with the Suzuki in making small crossover vehicles, the Japanese company decided to move forward on its own and creating the second generation of the SX4 S-Cross. The vehicle was closer to the C-segment of the sport-utility vehicles, but it was still a cross-over. A mix between the small class and a compact SUV.

When the designers increased the size of the vehicle, the A-pillars were moved back to amplify the 2-volume design instead of the MPV-look of the first generation. It was taller and had a bigger wheelbase, to offer more legroom for the rear passengers. The new headlights could have been fitted with Xenon lamps and LED daytime running lights.

The interior was good for five people, but the central transmission tunnel was to intrusive into the cabin and thus, the middle passenger from the back seat wasn't very comfortable with the seating position. But for four passengers was more than enough, especially if the car was not fitted with the panoramic roof.

The SX4 S-Cross featured 2WD as standard, but an electronically-controlled all-wheel-drive system was offered as an option. The rear independent suspension was available only for the all-wheel-drive system.
