Overview

The 2011 Suzuki SX4 Sedan is a subcompact sedan offered in 5 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $13,499. For that price, it mainly competes with the Nissan Versa Sedan, the Ford Fiesta Sedan, and the Hyundai Accent Sedan. Between 5 trims, the SX4 Hatchback offers one powertrain. It is a 2.0L inline-4 engine making 150 horsepower and 140 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 6-speed manual transmission and a continuously variable transmission. The SX4 Hatchback reaches 60 mph from zero in 8.3 seconds. The SX4 Hatchback manages a combined fuel economy of 25 mpg. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 3 striking colors the SX4 Hatchback comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

In our opinion, the mid-range LE Anniversary trim is the real deal here. It incorporates all the necessary features like 17-inch alloy wheels, cruise control, leather-wrapped steering wheel, etc in the standard package.
