Suzuki S Cross, or crossover, as it is more commonly known, is a fairly old vehicle. It was introduced in 2013 and was well received locally. There are quite a few people who are mainly looking for peace of mind with a proven reliability reputation, and are not necessarily looking for the last word in the field. He went through a few changes throughout his life, and also changed a few nicknames, and now he's standing here after an obvious facelift.
Lifting and stretching
The main change is very easy to see, since it includes a completely new front and also improved rears.
The result is a significantly present look, one that replaces the gray design that was here.
If it's the more aggressive front with the new lighting units, or the prominent rear lights a la Rab 4 - the result is definitely good.
She manages to give the crossover a fresher look.
Inside the passenger cabin you can recognize the new multimedia screen.
In this version, it is 9 inches in size, and offers a significantly better multimedia system than the one that was here before.
The tested version also includes dual-wheel drive, and those who don't need it can choose a version so equipped (GLXV), even with front-wheel drive only.
This version also includes a very effective 360 camera system.
The rest of the safety equipment has been updated and now includes cruise control, independent braking, lane departure correction and a warning for vehicles in the dead zone.
An inside look.
suzuki s cross,
similar feeling
Before setting off, you discover that Suzuki's design focuses, as always, on efficiency and durability, and less on noise and ringing.
The seats are mostly of the harder and more durable variety, the space is good, also in the back, but you won't find air conditioning vents or charging sockets in the second row.
The trunk continues the same useful line with a wide structure, a low opening and a handsome 440 liters.
On the road, the crossover feels quite good.
The suspensions show restraint that will demonstrate their ability on a fast undulating road, for example, but not on a broken urban one.
The behavior is safe and predictable despite the light steering wheel.
The drive unit still includes the same 1.4 L turbo with a light electric system.
The electric part here is mainly intended to make the engine easier in different situations, but it is really a minor addition.
The overall performance is good - the Suzuki efficiently performs what is asked of it, without noises, bumps or complaints.
what is needed
The dual drive here shows good ability on the slippery trail.
What will limit the progress here are actually the tires and the clearance.
For those who don't plan on off-roading or driving on slippery surfaces, this version won't really be needed.
It is better to go for the cheaper front-wheel drive version, and get an efficient and proven vehicle at a reasonable price.
