Fiat and Suzuki cars from TJ Vickers
Suzuki SX4
Head for the bright lights, stow a mountain bike, a big wet shaggy
dog or a family of five. Whatever you do, the Suzuki SX4 is made to adapt to your way of life. The new SX4. Throw life at it.
Rest, relaxation & retail therapy
City life. It's fast. It's furious. It can bring you out in a cold sweat or tingles of anticipation. That's why the SX4 is built to take on the big bad city: rugged and compact, sharp and pacy, comfortable and refined, with enough boot space to satisfy the most ardent shopaholic. With its distinctive looks, wheel arch extensions and alloy wheels,* you'll always arrive in style. In the city the SX4 can more than hold its own. Precise handling, powerful engines to nip in and out, economy figures that won't set the pulse racing and an interior so spacious you can forget all about congestion.
Don’t be pigeonholed
It's original. A bit of a rebel. The SX4 is both of these things. When you want comfort, it's comfortable. When you want refinement, it's refined. But there's a wild side too. Sports Utility Vehicle looks, pacy performance and the ability to cross over from 2 to 4 wheel drive at the flick of a switch on the GLX 4GRIP models. Why stick to the straight and narrow? Life isn't all one-way systems and junctions, manicured lawns and washing the car on Sundays. Sometimes you want to leave the frappes, the mochas and the cappuccinos behind. Sometimes you yearn for country lanes, cobbled streets and wide open spaces. Wherever you go, the SX4 will help you on your way to one adventure after another.
Even our technology likes to be different
The SX4 isn't just unique in its crossover thinking, it's unique in
its engine offering. Both petrol and diesel are available and both
deliver the necessary torque for urban and outdoor lifestyles.
Nothing out of the ordinary you might think, but it's the sparkling
performance that captures the imagination. Each engine is
designed to deliver sporty, high-powered performance with sharp
acceleration across the entire rev range. They're all incredibly
efficient when it comes to fuel consumption but, for something
really different, go for the GLX 4GRIP model. This version has Suzuki's i-AWD (intelligent All Wheel Drive) switchable three-mode 4x4 system. An electric control coupling device enables 4WD-Auto, 4WD-Lock, and 2WD modes to be selected at the touch of a button. Select 4WD-Lock and this is maintained until 40mph for full traction. Then it automatically switches over to 4WD-Auto mode for smooth cruising. Select 2WD mode for permanent 2 wheel drive.
A unique interior experience
There's nothing quite like the SX4. Not on the outside. Not on
the inside. Our cross over thinking means you'll find the high driving position and great all round visibility of a Sports Utility Vehicle with the refinement and equipment levels of a car: tinted glass, electric windows, power steering, automatic air conditioning and audio system with eight speakers. Whether you're changing gear or changing lane, the driver's environment is designed to put all controls within easy reach. This ensures the driving experience is always controlled and relaxed.
An interior designed for outdoors
Muddy fields, city walls or sandy beaches? With the interior of the SX4, we really have thought of everything. Seat height, seat positioning and space are all developed for comfort and practicality on long journeys. High ground clearance, large door openings and split folding backseats increase boot size so your suitcases and camping gear can fit in just as naturally as a family of five. We've also blended style with functionality by creating discreet storage compartments and large bottle holders that are just as handy on a summer picnic as they are on the morning commute. The result is a
passenger environment which can cope with anything you decide to throw at it.
Designed for safety. Built for adventure
To start great adventures you have to feel completely confident with your vehicle. That'swhy we always aim to maximise the safety features in our products. To begin with, the SX4 has an elevated driving position to allow greater all round visibility and control. It also benefits from an incredibly tough body structure with front and rear crumple zones that absorb impact energy. Further safety is provided with ABS and an Electronic Brake Force System that ensures braking power is applied evenly to each wheel and prevents the brakes locking in an emergency stop. Inside you'll find front, side and curtain airbags,3-point seatbelts and child-seat anchors that combine to create maximum comfort and safety throughout the
reinforced cabin. It all adds up to an incredibly safe car. So much so, EURO NCAP awarded the SX4 4 stars for occupant protection and 3 stars for pedestrian and child protection.
