Suzuki SX4 Diesel – Potent and Fast

The Suzuki SX4 entered the market a couple or years back, and with its heavy built and huge size the car was launched in the market with a tag line of “male among cars”, which according to me personifies the car very well. The SX4 got great response from the market and soon became an obvious choice for the people looking for a heavy sedan for Indian roads. Counting on the success of Suzuki SX4 petrol version, the company has now introduced the Suzuki SX4 Diesel, which again is a great option for the people looking for affordable yet potent sedan in Indian market.

The Suzuki SX4 diesel will be having a 1.3 liter Multijet diesel engine with VGT under its hood, and this engine from Fiat has everything that you expect from a potent and efficient diesel engine. The Suzuki SX4 diesel will be competing against the likes of Fiat Linea, Volkswagen Vento and Honda City, so the entry might have been easy for the Suzuki SX4 Diesel, but the road to success surely wont be all that easy and the car will be facing some tough competition.

In terms of drive the Suzuki SX4 diesel gives a great feel with almost comparatively less noise inside the cabin. The engine noise is a tad more than what we heard in Fiat Linea, but the good news here is that the Maruti Suzuki SX4 diesel is faster than Linea, and that definitely can be attributed to the comparatively light body of the car. It should be noted that the Suzuki SX4 diesel The 1.3L turbocharged engine of the car generates maximum power of 90bhp and has all the properties that are required for a diesel engine car.

Apart from the Fiat 1.3L engine under the hood of Suzuki SX4 Diesel, there isn’t any major changes in the car. If truth be told the Suzuki SX4 diesel has almost the same looks as we’ve seen in its petrol siblings and the ZDi comes with the same features such as the Dual SRS Airbags, EBD, ABS, steering mounted Audio Controls, beige interiors and 16 inch alloys.

The Suzuki SX4 diesel will be an excellent option for the diesel engine loving Indian customers and will be a tough competition for its rivals. The SX4 diesel already has entered the market, and if you are thinking of buying one, then you’ll have to pay around `70,000/- more than the petrol Suzuki SX4.
