Suzuki SX4 now with AWD

Japanese car maker Suzuki has launched an AWD version of the SX4 hatchback to complement the 2WD hatch and sedan variants available in Australia until the end of August.

The SX4 AWD and SX4 AWD S captures the appeal of both a sport compact and SUV with its switchable 3-mode Intelligent All Wheel Drive system delivering superior all-wheel traction. Both models features the same 2.0-litre engine developing 107 kW of power and 184 Nm of torque and a raft of standard features including dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, air conditioning and an MP3 compatible sound system with steering wheel mounted controls.

The ranging topping AWD S model adds further safety features including seat-mounted side airbags, curtain airbags plus other creature comforts such as keyless entry, cruise control, climate control air-conditioning, alloy wheels and fog lamps.

Prices for the Suzuki SX4 AWD (5-speed manual) starts at $21,990 and tops off at $26,990 for the SX4 AWD S with 4-speed automatic transmission.
