Maruti Suzuki SX4 User Reviews

Exterior Its having an amazing exterior look..its an real macho type..Its having amazing exterior look..good storage for luagages..

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior was not that much apealing for this car..rear seat space is very less, not at all comfatable for 3 persons..Its having good suspensions and good ground clearence too with an appreaciable tyre thickness, so for rough rood, its fine with the ride.. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is having very good performance and power.. I got around 17-18kmpl with petrol on an avg speed of 80-90km/hr.. so thats an great deal for me..

Ride Quality & Handling Its having an good ride quality on speed around 140 also..so, this speed is an good one to enjoy your drive on highways for the this middle segment car.. 

Final Words U can give an thought while selecting in this segment for SX4.. Do proper maintanance and servicing at regular intervals..Since, maintenace for any car can give you good performance as well as average.

Areas of improvement The interiors has to be improved a lot. I am not at all satisfied with interiors. Also the rear leg space can be more for an long comfartable journey.

It gives an good fuel economy.It doesnt have an good interiors and back seat leg space is problem

Exterior Its robost and musculine and gives the feeling of a sedan.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Quality of interior could have been better especialy the plastics. For people who are not too tech savvy its ok as it has very limited features on its dash unlike Verna. Space for driver and front passenger is good. Space for back passengers is better than its some of the siblings. Comfort level is satisfactory but could have been better. Boot space is one of the best compare to its siblings and some of the other competitor.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is proven and it is one of the best in its class yet could have been better as its the same DDiS engine being used in Swift, Dizire and now in Ertiga. Fuel economy is far below as claimed as per ARAI. On highway one can expect 18 to 19 kms/L and in city conditions 14 to 16 kms/L. Gearbox is ok and nothing great about it with 5 MT.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good but it will also depend on what kind/type of road one is using. We all are aware of our Indian road conditions, unlike in Europe and other advanced countries. The longivity of life of a vehicle purely depends on road conditions. Handling is good. At high speed also it gives full confidence that I am with you. I have gone upto 160.

Final Words I found the car is very responsive.  I am nearing 10,000 Kms now and its due for 3rd free service as I had purchased in May 2012. Till now I have not experienced any major problem and completed quiet a few long journeys. My bet with SX4 is purely personal. Following were on my paper.

1. Maruti vast network of ASS

2. Basic things on dash.

3. Milage

4. Trouble free

5. Little less on my pocket

6. Simple yet musculine looks

7. High speed handling.

Areas of improvement Power of engine, power of headlamps and its quality, Ground clearence, overall look and few gooddies on the dash to be with other competitors. ABS and Airbag should be made mendatory in all variants.

Musculine Look, Good on road gripping while on high speedQuality compare to others is not upto the mark

Exterior It looks very muscular and eye catching. I purchased in Nov 12. Has been a very good purchase.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very confortable in seating and driving. The rear seating is positioned at a good height and very easy to enter and exit for aged people. Music system is excellent. Since I need a good sedan with driving  confort, I didnot want many features in other cars.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I have driven around 1500 kms in one month with 1000 kms within city of Bangalore and 500kms on highways. The pick up has been very good though some times I feel second gear is not enough and have to switch to first gear frequently. The mileage I am getting in city is around 14 and on highways i got 16 to 17. Over all very good driving experience.

Ride Quality & Handling Initially when I bought the vehicle, on the first day itself, I started getting rattling sound from front left side. It was very uncomfortable and next day I took to Maruti dealer Kalyani Motors, Mysore Road. I must say, the service at this dealer is really wonderful and they solved the problem withinhalf day and now that sound is no more. Due their service that, this is my third car from the same dealer and I have never been disappointed even once. Got first servicing and went for long drive on highways for around 500 kms. Drove close to 130Kmph and car was fantastic and never felt that I was drivingat that speed.

Before buying I took test drives of most other sedans line Verna, Skoda Rapid, vento, sunny, duster etc. Only verna came close to my selection. However considering its low ground clearance and expensive after sales service and spares, chose for Sx4 VDi.

Final Words Dont go with exteriors alone. It is the quality, service back up, number of service centers on road count a lot. Just got a feeling that, with every other car purchase, I was purchasing one or the other problem with the car. Hence went ahead with sx4.

Areas of improvement Exteriors can be modified.

overall very good and gread road presenceneed to push doors hard for closing

Exterior Awesome look, its really a man's car. I had purchased this car about couple of years ago, and i fell for this the highest end model ( ppl who actually love the cars will understand my words) for others its having a macho simultaneously decent and as well as kind of a officer class look. Its having an Awesome groungd clearence which you wont be getting in honda city, PERFECT FOR INDIAN ROADS, MADE FOR INDIANS ONLY.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I purchased the high end model in petrol without leather seat. it is fully featured from inside, wel I dont think you will not going to find anything less about it. music box is good but at the same time bad for those who like to show off from music by playing it hard, because for show off it will going to disapoint you. But the juke box is nice really nice and very clear sound you can get. I dont know about others but for me its my first sedan class vehicle so i mainly got attracted to a joy stick which is given at the drivers door. By that joy stick you can manage viewing of both the side mirrors without even touching it. If we talk about the steering wheel, its adjustable and got all the controls on it, controls like for volume of music system or changing tracks or chaning modes from CD to USB to FM anything. temperature sensor is also given to it which show the temperature in celcius. The BEST OF THE BEST part I like is the music system control panel and the knobs given for controlling AC. ITS JUST AWESOME because I'd seen the honda city's control panel and knobs they look ly an semi automatic washing machine but in SX4 its classy. and yes you'll get fastes and awesome cooling by AC upto the rear side also. space is just great. I'll suggest that once sit inside and feel because its unexplainable. Overall its 10 on 10 for total comfort section.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is outstanding, the power you get while driving will be more than great. But on the other han I have some complaints regardin fuel economy.As using AC it will give you 10-13 kmpl max in city, without AC upto 18kmpl. Gear box is too soft. ppl may complaint but I dont feel any problms, its smooth, soft and adaptable.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality is awesome, I'll say take a test drive and you'll know i m not wrong. And handling part drive at whatever speed you want vehicle will not going to leave the road or it will not make you feel that its going uncontrollable. I touched the speed of 140kmhr and trust me it was in control.

Final Words Awesome vehicle.  But go for high end type or else u'll regret afterwards that why didnt you went for high end vehicle. Why i am sying this because its fully equiped.

Areas of improvement I think mileage. But still its fair enough. They shuold provide a glass holder for rear ppl also, apart from providing on gates.

Extremely comfortable ride, awesome and quick cooling by AC for the whole compartment.Not at all fuel economy, company promises for 17kmpl, but in actual you'll get 10-13 kmpl at max

Exterior Graet macho looks. The boot is a little on the higher side, blocks the rear view vision. Could be a trouble initially for reversing and while driving in heavy traffic. However, it is not something that would bother you after driving the car 2-3 times.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The stearing and the seats are very good. The dash is well placed and easy to access the controls on the music player and the AC. However, the interiour plastic quality isn't the best.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox This car has very smooth transition. If you are driving on the highway and maintain 4th-5th gear, it gave me 16.5kml with the AC. However, the overall fuel economy is only around 13.5/14 kml.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality is smooth and the handling is Awesome.

Final Words One of the best Cars to go for as a second hand investment, provided you get it in gr8 condition :). Servicing is cheap and overall gives you a very pleasurable drive.

Areas of improvement The Boot obstructing the rear view is an area that needs to be looked into. The interiour plastics aren't all that great. But overall, you cannot complain much about this car once you drive it, you'll love it!!

Great road presence, road grip, smooth high speed driving, great bucket seats, head and leg room,Ok Interiors, Fuel economy, sluggish on 1st gear,

Exterior Elegant looking which has a bold exterior which has a royal look on the roads. Looks like a MAN. Great exterior finish and a strong body.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Excellent interiors, good space to fit a family of 4. Comfort able seating both rear and front. Huge Boot space. Leg space is in the rear is the best of all the cars. Gives a feeling of sitting in an SUV than a sedan. No sedan can be compared with SX4. This is the best in the lot. A very good family car.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox High performing engine. performance equivalent to big cars with 2+ litre engines while this is just 1.6.

Ride Quality & Handling Great driving experience. Feels like sitting in an SUV. You will not like any other Sedan once you start driving this.

Final Words I own this car since 5 years and don't feel like giving up. I drive this more than my BMW. Great car for a daily use and also highway driving with family. My family loves this car.  

Areas of improvement None. Keep it original.

Drive, space, performance, Great styleNone

Exterior The car has a very sexy look from outside, it also shows the strength by look, tough body, elegant look, aerodynamic shape.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very spacious, very good for the old people to step in and sit those who have knees problem. My mother always prefers to sit in SX 4 for this reason. Most comfortable seats, which reminds me of Ambassador car, give perfect support to back. Driving is not at all tiring even after 10 hours.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is powerful, great pickup, I drove down the car from Nagpur to Goa after 15 days of buying it. I took flat 18 hours to reach, great speed which you don't feel while sitting inside.

Fuel economy is poor, my only grudge with this car. In city I get around 10km/l. The gearbox is stunningly smooth, effortless changing gear.

Ride Quality & Handling Very smooth in handling. It starts very smoothly with a great power. Handling is very very easy, no complicated switches, easy to understand the indicators on dashboard.

Final Words I love this sexy man car

Areas of improvement Inetrior, upholstry, dashboard design, The steering wheel blocks the view of dashboard. The angle needs to be studied.

When you reach in a square, there is a serious problem with the view of teh vehicles coming from the driver's right side. The frame on right window and body blcoks the view. I already dashed a car coming from my right in the very first week of buying. Then I started take care while in square. It happened second time when my friend drove it. He has Tavera, he mentioned he didnt see the scooter coming from right.

Sexy glam look, smooth on road, soft gearbox, powerful brakes, a man carHigh boot, dash board design

Hi Friends

Wanted to change from a Wagon R to a Diesel Sedan. After research and TDshortlisted the fludic Verna 1.4 CRDI, new SX4 1.3 ZDI  and the Vento.

I have finaly gone a head with the new SX4 Zdi over verna and vento.

Verna 1.4 is with very low seating and no major features, Vento again out of my buget.I found SX4 to be a better value for money product with lots of features and at the price of Vento diesel base verna  variant.

Got the delievry of my car and completed close to 500 kms run, found it to be a very good balance of power and performance with with strong built and amazing road dynamics. Initial average of 16 kms per ltr.

The engine is so silent that u don't here the diesel machine inside the cabin. I got 2 airbags, alloywheels, ele foldable mirors, CD player with 4 speakers and 2 tweeters, ABS front and rear fog lamps...all under 10 lakh.

Downside - limited choice of colours, dashboard could have been better, bluetooth not present, cabin richness and gears little hard.

I initially had doubts on the 1.3 ltr dsl engine as vento had much powerful 1.6 . But believe me the 1.3 same as used in Dzire does a fantastic job in the SX4 with the new turbo charger. So performane wise its and amazing sedan, The height and Grnd Clearance is amazin all msot like an SUV.

Strong built quality, ground clearance, lots of feqatures, high seats and driving position,Gear shit, dashboard, bluetooth not present,

Exterior Attentions will surely fall on an moving sx4 for its exterior, where things are rightly placed, and majesticaly lifted where it needed, good family car, very less engine noise inside which is my consern comparing with nissan, hyundai, and etios, the cross bar in the front is a cause of consern during uphill as it makes a blind spot on a deep curve towards the right while driving.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Great space inspite of little crunchy back seat legroom, good plastic, nice comfort, harder steering pains the hands sometimes, but regular service and cleaning makes it free, audio quality is appriciative, only missing bluetooth for a hastle free driving for a busy day to answer.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Jumps and tores the wind in 2nd and 3rd gear.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good, steering wheel handling is prety hard, like the gear rod as well.

Comfortable driver seat, pickup is adventurous and amazing, tyre grips the road and roars the roadGears & steerinsmoothness is overlooked in making, seats need hugging effect for comfort long rides
