What is the Suzuki S-Cross?
The S-Cross is a compact crossover with a raised driving position and room for everyday family use. First sold as the SX4 S-Cross, it blends a passenger car’s road manners with SUV styling and practicality. It sits among the versatile everyday models in Suzuki’s range.
Suzuki built its reputation on compact four-wheel-drive vehicles, and the S-Cross carries that experience into a road-focused crossover. Selected versions offer the ALLGRIP four-wheel-drive system for added traction in changing conditions.
Generations and changes
The first generation ran from 2013 to 2021 as the SX4 S-Cross. Suzuki presented it as a crossover combining passenger-car comfort with SUV practicality, and it found a strong audience in Europe.
The second generation arrived in 2022 with the shorter S-Cross name. Its bolder SUV styling, updated cabin and display audio gave the model a more pronounced SUV character, while ALLGRIP remained available.
Engines, power and fuel consumption
In EU registrations from 2013 to 2025, the S-Cross range spans 1.0 L to 1.6 L engines and 75 kW (102 PS) to 103 kW (140 PS). European versions include petrol, diesel, hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. In the UK, versions listed from 2014 to 2026 also use 1.0 L to 1.6 L engines, with power from 75 kW (102 PS) to 129 kW (175 PS).
The lowest stated EU consumption for petrol, diesel or hybrid versions is 5.3 L/100 km on WLTP. The lowest UK figure is 4.2 L/100 km on NEDC. The tests differ, so these figures are not directly comparable. The EU plug-in hybrid’s 5.5 L/100 km WLTP figure is a weighted result that assumes some driving is electric.
Where was the S-Cross sold?
Suzuki built the second-generation S-Cross in Hungary and launched it in Europe before exporting it to Latin America, Oceania and Asia. EU registration figures cover 2013–2025, while UK figures cover 2014–2026.
