6.8 / 10The Suzuki S-Cross (sold as SX4 Cross in UAE) is a compact turbocharged crossover offering a practical five-seat interior, capable AWD option and a class-leading 7-year/unlimited-km warranty. At AED 112,700–120,000 it sits above the expected compact-SUV price band, meaning buyers can find larger or better-equipped rivals from Korean and Japanese brands for similar money. It rewards with strong build quality, a well-sized boot and genuine all-terrain ability in the AWD Ultra.
Who it's for — Compact SUV shoppers who value a long warranty, proven reliability and AWD traction without the premium price tag of European alternatives — especially those who need occasional off-road capability.
