Our take on the Suzuki SX4 S-Cross
Most for sale are petrols (80%). At the NCT (figures for all Suzuki SX4s, as the RSA doesn't list the SX4 S-Cross separately), the 2014–2019 cars do better than other cars the same year. Every one with a known engine has the 1.4 petrol, and it usually lasts around 350k km.
