Suzuki Reno for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by the Edmunds Experts

Pros

Lots of standard features for the price, comfortable cabin with unexpected conveniences, solid construction, predictable handling.

Cons

Unrefined powertrain, subpar fuel economy, similarly priced Aerio makes more power.

What’s new

The Reno is an all-new car for 2005. Based on the Forenza, the Reno uses the same engine, transmission and underpinnings but adds a little attitude with a sleeker five-door hatchback body and a flashier interior design.

Edmunds says

Comfortable, well equipped and solidly built, the Reno represents a good value and provides a more youthful alternative to the Forenza wagon.

2005 Suzuki Reno S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl 5M)

I purchased this vehicle in hopes of getting an inexpensive dependable commuter car.When driving home one evening the car quit on the interstate.The car was under warranty so I wasnt worried.I sat in the dealership the entire next day? After a couple of weeks the dealership called and said the serpentine belt broke and caused the timing belt to jump time, ruining the engine.The icing on …

Why I DIDN'T get a Reno

DC, 08/27/2005

2005 Suzuki Reno LX 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl 4A)

Although I was impressed with the Reno LX's ride, features, performance, and quiet cabin, the following items turned me away. 1. Very weak AC, which I found in all three Renos I drove. Sub-par at best. 2. Poorly designed sunroof operation, with no "one-touch" closing, requiring you to keep a finger on the button and your eyes on the sunroof as it closes, meaning having to take your …

Great on a Budget

The Newlyweds, 12/16/2005

2005 Suzuki Reno S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl 4A)

We recently purchased a new 2005 Suzuki Reno. We are very pleased with our purchase. We love how quiet and relaxing it was to drive/ride in. The gas mileage is pretty good (30mpg). We also own a '97 Geo Metro so we're big on gas mileage. We were complaining about wanting more room on longer trips and wanting 4 doors. So we very pleased with the roomy interior, safety features, and …

Great Little Car

2005 Suzuki Reno S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl 4A)

My Suzuki Reno is the second Suzuki I have owned. I also currently own an XL-7. I LOVE this car. The interior is set up great and there is plenty of room for me and the kids. The sound system rocks and the ride is as smooth as silk. The braking with the 4 disk brakes is sharp and the speed sensitive steering is awesome...especially in parking lots etc. The only knock I have so far …
