The ground clearance compared to other Suzuki models
Among the Suzuki ensemble, the SX4's ground clearance finds itself playing in the middle of the pack. Glancing around the Suzuki family reunion, you'll see the Suzuki Swift and its sportier sibling tiptoeing at 115-116mm, barely clearing a thick textbook. The Swace, akin to a diligent but slightly taller student, stands at 135mm. Meanwhile, the Vitara and S-Cross, perhaps the SX4's closest kin in aspirations and altitude, match the older SX4's 175mm clearance stance with pride. In the realm of ground clearance, the SX4's latest 180mm elevation means it rubs shoulders with the likes of the Across and Ignis, yet still gazes up at the lofty 205mm perch of the Jimny, the unquestionable mountain goat of the family.

How does the ground clearance of the Suzuki SX4 compare to it's nearest competitors?
Charting the SX4 against its classmates from other families brings about an intriguing narrative of undercarriage diplomacy. The Skoda Citigo, with its urbanely modest 136mm, wouldn't dare venture where the SX4 boldly strides. Then there's the DS Automobiles DS 7, which looks down upon most from a lofty 190mm, a clear reminder that ground clearance is but a number, yet a significant one. Comparatively, the Opel Grandland's 188mm barely overshadows the SX4, making for similar capabilities when hopping curbs. Dacia Duster and Subaru XV, however, play in a league of their own, towering at 205mm and 220mm respectively, leaving the SX4 and many others in their dust. Yet, against urban crawlers like the Lexus UX and BMW X2, with 160mm and 182mm, the SX4 proudly asserts its competitive edge, striking a fine balance between urban agility and rural readiness.
