- Suzuki SX4 S-Cross is now in its third generation. At least this is what Suzuki claims. But don't be surprised if this SX4 S-Cross looks familiar. The fascia is new (for the third time since 2013). Also the tail lamps are different.

![2023 Suzuki S-Cross Hybrid POV [Car Obsession]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/xJxeshUzLsQ/mqdefault.jpg)
As a Suzuki driver for about 2 years (with a Swift, but having experience with the S-Cross), I find these cars honest, practical and good value for money. They don't offer great design and luxury, but they do the job well and they don't break easily. Their service and repair are also reasonable. I've had experience with other well-known European and Japanese brands and I think that Suzuki is quite fine and much cheaper. And better than other "cheap" brands like Dacia and... Dacia.
Thanks for sharing!
Yes, I agree with everything you said
and what is luxury, we just add premium word in the front and everyone thinks that is superior. The people around the world, better buy used "luxury" cars then new "on the budget" car. The main problem is in the mindset. Because of that kind of people, the cars nowadays cost as flat with three bedroom (before crisis) that is insane. Like everything in life, people should buy car because of practicality, not because of brand or what will neighbor say.
Agreed, Suzuki is better than Dacia and Ssangyong
I went for window-shopping, then Suzuki salesperson tempted me with a spin, why not? I really wasn't prepared for the refinement in 30-mile zone, very impressed. The dampers, wow, is it because it's new I wonder, or my old car is too old? But I'm pretty sure that it's new so the brake is very grabby, but I got used to it quickly. Start-stop is a tad slower than I like. What's getting me the most is the low-down roar, very boomy, though when the speed picks up, it faded - I don't think I'll get used to that. However, though slow, the single-clutch auto box is smoother than my double-clutch renault box - THAT is surprising. Lane-keeping is an intriguing experience, like your instructor returned from 5 years ago and decided you needed help, so I switched it off with a flip on the steering wheel. Pound-for-pound, this is a hybrid of good value (but maybe not good fuel economy). If I went for this, I definitely go for top trim - full fat Suzuki tech and massive glass roof.
Ended up with a mild hybrid vitara. I'd say it's pretty engaging to drive for what it is. Nowhere near my old volvo but then again. It uses half the fuel that my volvo does.
Much better looking than older models.
No, on the contrary!
Very nice review 👍👍👍
My 2015 S - Cross is a great all rounder. Super reliable and excellent fuel consumption (petrol) good review.
Good review as usual. Thanks.
I have a 2023 1.4 Boosterjet Mild Hybrid and im very happy with it. 15,000 miles done so far, trouble-free. It's a fantastic engine and a comfortable ride. Yes, it's no Bond-girl, but the facelift has worked well and it feels well built. I much prefer it to my Jogger and 500x.
HI all purchased a brand new model last week October 2023 and early days but will keep you all updated and in passing I am sort of out in the country Co Antrim N.Ireland.
I'm in co Clare too
Great review! Dziekuje bardzo for your videos from Ukraine!
💪🇺🇦
The Suzuki S-Cross isn’t gonna be sold in the United States or Canada. But they could be sold in Mexico, cos Suzuki still sells vehicles in Mexico.
Edit: the S-Cross is now on sale in Mexico.
Hey… we DID have Vitara and SX4 and Kizashi here in USA (at least until about 2008).
You had the original SX4 (aka Fiat Sedici), which was a great little crossover, but probably not for the US.
@@MarekDrivesENG They were sold in the United States but in miniscule numbers.
Suzuki's downfall in the United States was when they started selling rebadged Daewoos.
The best advantage of this car is the weight. From 1200 to 1300 kg. So it has a good performance (because of the low weight) and can have a very low consumption (with manual gearing naturally). The pricing is, I would say, a bit too high. Should be lower.
For my reviews in English I use German prices, and these are absurd for the Suzuki. In Poland it's much cheaper.
@@MarekDrivesENG in Slovenia the top version cost 29 k€
In Croatia starting price is 21.000eur and my Premium GLX MT FWD was 25.000eur
I am considering this car as we have a 6 year old Vitara and a 2 year old Swift and those are brilliant. Cheap to buy, cheaper to run and service. But Marek, where do you get those prices bro? In Romania they are 10.000 euro cheaper....
I use German prices for my reviews in English. In Poland the S-Cross starts at 19k euro, and this one costs about 29k.
prices of cars differ from market to market (and by market i mean country)...didn't you realise that by now ? Obivously cars in Germany will be more expensive than the same car in , lets say for example, Bulgaria. Its becasue in Germany the consumers have more buying power...thus more expensive products, apartments, services, etc...
Don't bother the fuel economy is rubbish.regret changing from my Vitara.
Love the car
Marek you probably made a mistake in pricing. Fully equipped AWD car with everything, plus extra color (600€) is going for around 26700€ in Slovakia. As per today's 10th of July 2022 price list.
I use German prices in my English reviews, and for some reason the Suzuki is absurdly expensive over there. In Poland the car as tested comes out at about 29k.
@@MarekDrivesENG I don't know why, but it is. I looked to import Vitara from France or Germany. For 3-5 years old car it's usually cheaper to import, but Vitara is more expensive even before import tax.
V nice car
Mitsubishi RVR/ASX is pretty much the same. Decade+ old platform with mild facelifts to keep it fresh. I'm not complaining though, old tech is usually more reliable.
Mitsu is too slow. Suzuki has 8 sec to 100 kmh what means the fastest SUV's
@@7shpongle Have you ever heard about Lamborghini Urus???
@@xgamez5698 its shit. Turbobusa is faster. 502 kmh Karl!
I have been watching Scrossmyoutube video for quite sone this and this one is the most efficient, informative and driver&buyer friendly coverage. Congrats
Glad it was helpful!
Well, I own s cross from 2018 and I fit on the second row comfortably under roof. But I dont have panoramic roof, maybe because of that you didn't have space above your head.
Good point! That sunroof takes a lot of height space inside the car.
Interesting that the 4x4 system digs in better than the Vitara and Ignis - but that's the only interesting thing about it!!
It does better than Vitara Strong Hybrid. It doesn't do better than Vitara Mild Hybrid or older petrol one.
Middle packet allgrip 25keuro new in Croatia.i think thats cheap as chips for an honest little suv.
The previous versions ass was a complete copy of the last generation Quasqui - now it’s ass looks like a copy of the VW T cross. As an average car for average people this isn’t a bad thing at all.
Keeping it affordable for people to buy it.
It's a lot better looking than the old one. I'll give them that.
No, it looks a lot worse than the previous generation. Pity they redesigned the front that bad.
Your Spiderman reference would have sold if you had shot a web and disappeared straight up.
My god this car is dull. And the colour tops the dullness factor. But thanks for the fun video Marek. I missed the last video. Time to watch that! I arranged an EV6 AWD test drive in a couple weeks.
I spoke to the PR guy about it. Apparently it's a battle between the PR and marketing, who's going to configure the car. PR wants cool colors, and marketing wants something that's going to be easy to sell afterwards. Grey is inoffensive, they say.
@@MarekDrivesENG I think in this case a brighter colour would just accentuate how boring the design is. I did see a new Audi Q3 in turbo blue and that looked great! And the Q5 in Quantum Grey. It's a darker greenish grey non metallic colour. It shows even grey can be interesting.
is it very noisy on highway? thank you
Yes.
Yeah no. Since I know about the new Jimny 5-door prototype, I am really not interested in the S-Cross^^
37.500 euro??? did they wrap yours in gold? Prices totally inaccurate
Ask the German Suzuki distributor. These are German prices.
Hahaha man, don't get this personally, but you're not a very good Spider Man 🤣🤣 On a more serious note, watching the last few reviews of Suzuki cars, it looks like they are stuck in a time-loop, 10 years into the past. I wonder how vastly different the Japanese Suzuki range looks like.
Sounds about right :)
i ordered mine for 20670 euros...
the 1.5 engine full hybrid u get, if u want automatic transmission, is very disappointing, very slow and u cant get ur cabin warm because the engine never warms up enough during city rides.
I average 4,8-5,8L/100km in my 2015🤔
What engine and gearbox though?
@@injinerconev there was only a 1.6 diesel 6 speed and a 1.6 petrol 5 speed both 120hp also available in 4x4 i have the petrol. Also both non turbo.
@@quintendeceulaer5988 that's a pretty good figure for such an engine and gearbox. Probably as good as it gets so cudos to you and to suzuki engineers 😁
@@quintendeceulaer5988I have the same one from the same year. The fuel efficiency is amazing for a quick-enough car. I don't understand how the hybrid system made it worse...
For me, the previous generation looks better. This one look too much like Toyota. I hope that Vitara will not get the same Toyotization treatment
it most probably will...Suzuki & Toyota have a very close partnership for some time now.
Very weird comment that the previus generation's front looks like "a pig with a muzzle". On the contrary, the previous generation had a very nice front design - by far superior to the new generation. Furthermore - why do you call it "snow lock mode"? Is that your own invention? According to the driver's manual it's simply called "lock mode" (also stated on the knob).
Basic model, front drive, manual gearbox is 21000 euro. You cant buy better for that money. All the little silly complains goes to trash then. Ofcourse Toyota cross is better but 10000 euro more so...Mazda has its own troubles, and again, for much more cash...
S U Z U K I
UNIK
ICONIC
POWERFULL
THE BEST
Except the trunk size and loud noise above 100km/h, but I agree :)
Forgot to add my Suzy as 27000 on clock
Drivers heated seats go faulty ,six speed manual’s gearbox is crap in first and second,drivers seat split twice slight hesitation around forty miles per hour,rear brakes needed modification .
Horrid car. We have a brand new s cross it slow to pull away doesn't save much money being hybrid we are going to try and change it
What will you buy then?
