2009 Suzuki SX4 Crossover Base AWD

The 2009 Suzuki SX4 Crossover Base AWD is identical to the SX4 Crossover Base in all regards but a few. The most significant change is, obviously, the addition of Suzuki’s three-mode intelligent all-wheel-drive system. This system allows the driver to choose where power is distributed among the wheels – two-wheel drive for efficiency, all-wheel drive for wet conditions, and four-wheel-drive for maximum traction in snow and ice. The system adds a little to the pricetag and detracts 1 mile per gallon from the highway mileage estimates (21 city/28 highway mpg for the SX4 Crossover Base AWD). And, unlike the SX4 Crossover Base, the AWD version does not come with the SuzukiTRIP Navi system.
