Suzuki SX4 vs. Hyundai Elantra Touring Review

Handling
With their similar turning circles, the Hyundai Elantra Touring and the SX4 most certainly handle approximately the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The Suzuki SX4's engine isn't much more sizeable than the Hyundai Elantra Touring's.

Utility
The Suzuki SX4 and the Hyundai Elantra Touring can accommodate the same number of passengers.

Convenience
You will definitely have to visit your friendly gas station more often with the Suzuki SX4 than with the Hyundai.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Hyundai Elantra Touring offers a bit more head room than the Suzuki SX4, there honestly isn't much of a difference. The Hyundai offers more head- and leg-room to your passengers than the Suzuki does.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Hyundai Elantra Touring than the Suzuki because of its larger tank. The Suzuki SX4 and the Hyundai Elantra Touring compete for the same parking spaces. The Hyundai Elantra Touring's longer wheelbase will result in a smoother, more stable ride; on the flip side, the Suzuki SX4 may give a more agile feel in daily traffic.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs roughly the same to get the Hyundai Elantra Touring to the dealership as the Suzuki SX4. The Suzuki SX4 won't tax your gas budget substantially more than the Hyundai Elantra Touring will. There isn't much of a difference in gas mileage here, but if you must know, the Hyundai Elantra Touring is a tad more economical than the Suzuki SX4. Regarding MSRP, the Suzuki costs significantly less than the Elantra Touring.

Warranty
The basic after-sale protection that comes with the Suzuki SX4 isn't quite as generous as the Hyundai Elantra Touring's.
