My experience has been that with proper maintenance, this car is solid. Just the usual.... tires, brake pads, fluid changes.Finding parts has not been a problem. I replaced plugs at 100,000, and the old ones looked good... but I'm old, and think 100,000 miles is a lot to ask. Changing serpentine belt this week for the first time. Brakes are simple to work on with basic tools. I had a 2010, but a deer committed suicide on the highway. Hit it at 65 MPH. Front end crumpled, Big buck was killed & tossed a long way... I walked away without a scratch... crumple zones & air bags worked, and I always wear the safety belt. I was so impressed that I bought a 2012. The seating position is upright & to me, very comfortable. I drive a 20 mile commute each day, and long vacation trips. a very good & practical car... wish they still sold them in USA.

The SX4 is a great all around general purpose vehicle, especially the Crossover. This car is heavy, solid, and handles great when driving around twisty back roads. Suzuki is biased towards building great handling cars rather then simply ones that accelerate fast. The SX4 Crossover is NOT an economy car. It easily weighs over 3000 with a driver and full tank of fuel. This is a vehicle that tries to do everything well and succeeds. Some cars just do one thing well, like a Prius getting great mileage or a Wrangler being good in the middle of the woods. You will get fed up with that when you need a car that does something else. The SX4 is that very car, and a reliable one.

I have owned two of these. I bought the first one when I couldn't afford a new Subaru. I was very happy to find out that it is a very good car for the money.

Our family went shopping for a new vehicle (wanted to upgrade from our 2012 crossover hatchback LE? auto with manual shift option, AWD, and 4wheel drive option). What we discovered was we already owned the vehicle we were shopping for. No other compact car available in Canada has AWD and 4x4 option. The biggest complaint I have, even though I'm petite and fit the car wonderfully, is the seats are uncomfortable. I struggle to drive or even be a passenger for longer than 20 minutes. Also the climate control... 😞 ohhh the climate control... let me just say... it leaves much much much to be desired. I have owned it since it was 3 years old, and it's performed poorly since day 1. Oh and oil changes.... whoever decided to put the oil filter in that spot... should perhaps consider a new department to work in. But we've had no problems with mechanical, leaky rear differential seal.. and just regular maintenance. It is kinda gutless, but it's 4 cylinders, and the manual shift option is great for passing.

We own two 2011 Suxuki SX4 Crossovers, one with CVT, the other with the manual transmission. Both are worthy performers in both dry and inclimate weather. I've done several 600 mile days in both cars and found them more comfortable than many full size cars. I particularly appreciate the i4wd system which allows for either 2wd or 4wd operation. In snow deeper than the rocker panels I had no problem with traction, steering, or braking. Both cars are averaging well over 28 MPG in town, which is quite a bit higher than the EPA estimated mileage.
