The Suzuki SX4 was introduced in 2007 with Sport (four-door) and Crossover (small station wagon) versions. Gas mileage ratings for the SX4 Crossover are among the best of the four wheel drive pack, with a rating of 28 miles per gallon (MPG) on the highway.
The SX4 has an Italian heritage … its handsome lines were penned by Turin-based Italdesign (perhaps best known for their work with Maserati and Lamborghini) while the vehicle itself was developed in conjunction with Fiat. By the looks of the SX4, un’unione bella! While we don’t usually get hung up on Manufacturer Suggested Retail Prices (MSRP), we’ll make an exception for the SX4 Crossover. At a base price of $14,270, the five-door hatchback SX4 is the least expensive four wheel drive vehicle sold in America today. Chart-topping all wheel drive gas mileage at entry-level prices make the Suzuki SX4 worth a look for budget-minded folks in colder climates.

In America, the SX4 is equipped with a five-speed manual transmission, mated to a 16-valve DOHC 2.0 liter four cylinder engine, producing 143 horsepower (HP) and 136 foot pounds of torque. A 4-speed electronically controlled automatic transmission is optional.

While a diesel engine is not currently offered in the States, two diesel front-wheel-drive SX4 variants are sold internationally. With a five-speed manual transmission, the 1.6 liter DDiS four-cylinder pumps out 215 foot pounds of torque and delivers 44.1 urban miles per British gallon / 61.4 extra urban, equating to roughly 36.7 city / 51.1 highway in US gallons. Equipped with a six-speed tranny, the more powerful 1.9 liter DDiS four-banger cranks out 280 foot pounds of torque, while providing 36.2 urban miles per British gallon and 51.4 extra urban. This is roughly 30.1 city / 42.8 highway in US gallons.

Note: the EPA tweaked their testing procedure, starting with the 2008 model year, with the end result being that the 2008 MPG estimates are now lower than previous years. As always, YMMV.
