2008 Suzuki Reno Road Test Ratings

The Reno offers little more than expected for its low price.

The 2.0-liter engine is down on power, requiring the driver to keep the motor higher in it's rev range. Steering and handling are a bit clumsy.

Ride comfort is agreeable, but a noticeable amount of engine noise enters the cabin when accelerating.

Drivers will find it easy to locate and operate all of the major controls. The 5-door body is functional, but the rather stubby tail limits space behind the 60/40 seats.

The Reno's shape isn't particularly attractive. Inside we find an uninspiring design with low-quality controls and detailing.
