Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
Pros
- Smooth inline six-cylinder engine, generous features list for the price, nice interior touches, strong warranty.
Cons
- Generic looks, marginal output for six-cylinder engine, no side airbags.
What’s new
The four-door, five-passenger Verona is an all-new midsize sedan in the Suzuki lineup. With a standard six-cylinder engine, automatic transmission and ample passenger and cargo room, it's designed to go head-to-head with class-leading vehicles like the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord.
Edmunds says
It may have a great warranty and a solid list of standard features, but this new Suzuki is no match for the established class leaders.

Guess it's still a Daewoo
Juan, 05/11/2008
2004 Suzuki Verona S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 6cyl 4A)
I purchased the Verona back in 2004 brand new and I was ecstatic. It looked great, rode well, and was incredibly smooth. I was always complimented on how good-looking the car was and how nice the interior appeared. And even now I still like the Verona, it's just the reliability that is complete crap. I've had issues with the 02 sensors, bearings, and now the engine has problems with the … fuel injectors. At about 11,000 miles the whole transmission had to be replaced and it's now beginning to act up again. The car isn't worth the headache. And it's a shame because Suzuki could've had a hit.

Run Away Fire waiting to happen

2004 Suzuki Verona EX 4dr Sedan (2.5L 6cyl 4A)
This started out to be an OK car. I can see why they give this a 7 year 100,000 mile warranty. I had the engine replaced and on my third transmission. The other day while parked with a child in the car it was destroyed by a engine fire . We were lucky no one got hurt and when I went to Suzuki for help they told me too bad. I am telling you this car was a joke and they do not stand … behind it if it catches on fire. They spent more on warranty work than what the car was worth. They should have negotiated with me after the engine and second transmission. Make sure you carry hazard insurance....

The Beast with Faults

2004 Suzuki Verona S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 6cyl 4A)
The Engine will pass most anything in and out of its class [I used to own an audi turbo] at the front end it has a hesitation. The suspension is too soft and will need to be replaced too soon [100k]. The electrical/indicator system is not the best[my check engine light has been on and off for over 100k and my millage has not changed since day one, and the dealers cannot give me a … ration explanation. Car has 150k miles and stops on a dime and has bailed me out of several nasty braking situations!
