About the Suzuki S-Cross
The third-generation Suzuki S-Cross, launched in late 2021, represents a significant evolution of the brand's compact crossover, moving away from the 'SX4' prefix in many markets. The Ultra trim serves as the flagship, offering a high level of standard equipment including a 360-degree camera and a panoramic sunroof. Its 1.4-litre Boosterjet engine is enhanced by a 48V mild-hybrid system that provides torque-fill at low revs, improving both efficiency and drivability. While it retains a focus on value and utility, the S-Cross is noted for its lightweight construction and surprisingly agile handling compared to heavier rivals.
