2010 Suzuki SX4 Start-Up and Full Vehicle Tour

It's time to let the Volvo go, so we shopped around for a new car. We were looking at four choices, the Suzuki Swift, Suzuki SX4, Honda City and Toyota Vios. Instantly, no Toyota for us, the Toyota doesn't really look that good TBH, and it has a bad name now. So it was the Swift, SX4 or City. First we test drove the SX4, and instantly got attracted to it. Didn't even test drive the Swift or City. So we placed an order for the SX4 in this beautiful red colour. =)

This SX4 is the facelifted 2010 model, with a new grill, new front bumper, slightly revised interior with a new instrument cluster, the elimination of the central information display and in place, an extra speaker. The engine also has been slightly revised, now to produce 110bhp and 150Nm or torque. There are two models available in Malaysia, the basic one for RM89,000 and the premium one for RM94,000. Fully imported from Japan and an impressive spec-list, we bought the car. We chose basic model as we prefered cloth seats to leather, we didn't want the bodykit and the tint was cheaper if we had done it ourselves.

why is the 2010 model doesn`t have fog lamps? very nice car btw.

[alexlovesmac]

@nouvolcphx Thanks. The 2010 model won't come imported with fog lights, but the dealer said they're bringing in the fog lights and we can go and install them at the workshop FOC when it arrives.

VERY nice car. What role will it serve? BTW, it's the opposite in US. Suzuki is about ready to pull out of the US market altogether. It is doing HORRIBLY bad.

[alexlovesmac]

@1bentley4ever It's an all around town car. Similar to the old 325i. That car was small and we took that car to places which are not suitable for huge cars. Same role here. Plus it's also a car I drive to college. Parking at my college is horrible!

[alexlovesmac]

@maeng97 Nope.

Hi, thank you for the wonderful tour. I am planning on buying the SX4. My salesman is offering me the 2010 model and giving 3years free full service on top of the 3 year warranty. I am a little suspicious about this offer. Do you think it is ok to buy a 2010 model now at the same price of a 2011 model? Btw, how is your car performing? Thanks....

Nice car! I would not mind driving one of those at all! Oh, and I am subscribing to you!

How reliable are Suzuki cars?

Right off the bat I got jealous! My 2010 SX4 came with the lamest fob & key combination - you got that really cool integrated key. I'd kill to not have that extra junk on my keychain!
