Suzuki SX4 is a crossover vehicle marketed by Suzuki. The SEMA Show displayed the SXForce at the Road Race Motorsports in California. The SXForce is a wild looking crossover vehicle with an interesting blend of car and bike. The concept of this vehicle is saloon based and the idea for the SXForce is to please both bike and car lovers. The exteriors have been painted in flashy white and metallic oranges complemented by carbon fiber lashings. The only exterior similarities to a super bike are the dual exhausts and door mirrors which are high mounted. The interiors of the SXForce are however very similar to those of a bike. The steering wheel is replaced by outrageous handlebars of the Hayabusa coupled with minimal instrument pack. SXForce resemble a bike in seating capacity by being a 2 seater and the rear seat gives way to a huge sound system of Rockford- Fosgate. The Road Race boys have changed nearly all the components with turbocharged propulsion engine of 2 liter capacity giving 250 bhp energy to the front wheels. The rims of the wheels are 18” Enkei and the tyres are high performance type Toyo T1-R. There are huge 355 mm discs and a 6 piston calipers that can be spotted through the wheel spokes. These are controlled by a Tein coil over spring. The SXForce design is sleek, sporty and stylish. The SX4 saloon sport version will soon be marketed in the US, and it won’t be expected very soon in the Suzuki showrooms though.
