View dealThe Suzuki S-Cross is a five-seat family SUV built around simplicity: one body style, one petrol engine and three trims, with front- or all-wheel drive depending on the version you pick. It measures 4.31 metres long and carries 430 litres of luggage with the rear seats up.
It sits alongside Suzuki's smaller SUVs as the roomier, more grown-up option in the range, and it's aimed squarely at drivers who want a practical car with a high driving position, a long standard equipment list and no charging cable to think about.
The choice is refreshingly short. Pick your gearbox (manual or automatic), decide whether all-wheel drive earns its place on your driveway, then choose between Motion, Ultra and Kuro.

The current S-Cross is the third generation of Suzuki's family crossover, on sale in this form since 2021. It's a five-seat, five-door SUV with a 430-litre boot, 665 litres with the rear seats folded, and a 3-year / 60,000-mile manufacturer warranty.
Reviewers consistently describe it as easy to drive, light on its feet and well equipped for the money, while being equally consistent that the cabin materials feel plain next to plusher rivals. Road testers also single out the availability of all-wheel drive at this size and price, which has become unusual.
Suzuki's reputation for dependability does a lot of work here. This is a car chosen on sense rather than showmanship, and a 10.8-metre turning circle makes multi-storey car parks less of an event.
Because the S-Cross gives you a lot of standard equipment without a long options list to argue over. Every version has adaptive cruise control, heated front seats, keyless entry and start, built-in navigation, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and dual-zone climate control.
The safety and driver-assistance kit is standard across the range too: blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, automatic high beam, front and rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera. Autonomous emergency braking is fitted from Motion upwards.
On practicality, you get roof rails, privacy glass, power-folding mirrors, rain-sensing wipers and a 47-litre fuel tank, plus braked towing of up to 1,200 kg. Servicing falls every 12 months or 12,500 miles, and there's a 12-year anti-corrosion guarantee. A tyre repair kit is supplied in place of a spare wheel, which is worth knowing before you order.
There's one engine, so the real decision is gearbox and drive. Every S-Cross uses the same 1.4-litre turbo petrol, and nothing in the range needs plugging in or charging at any point.
A four-cylinder turbo petrol with 107 bhp and 235 Nm, driving through a six-speed gearbox in manual or automatic form, with front- or all-wheel drive available. Official economy runs from 46.3 to 52.3 mpg and CO2 from 121 to 141 g/km, depending on the version you choose.
Performance is modest rather than quick: 0-62 mph takes from 10.1 seconds, and top speed reaches up to 115 mph. Insurance groups span 16 to 20. If you regularly deal with muddy lanes, steep unmade tracks or proper winters, the all-wheel-drive versions are the reason many people look at this car in the first place.

Three trims: Motion, Ultra and Kuro. All three share the 107 bhp petrol engine and 17-inch alloy wheels, so you're choosing on upholstery, glass roof, camera coverage and finish rather than on performance.
The Motion is the entry version, front-wheel drive, with 17-inch painted alloy wheels, cloth upholstery, LED low and high beam headlamps, a navigation system, smartphone link display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heated front seats and autonomous emergency braking. For a lot of families that's the whole list covered.
The Motion is currently available from £316.49 a month.
Ultra keeps the same engine and adds 17-inch polished alloy wheels, leather upholstery, a double sliding panoramic sunroof and a 360-degree view camera. The panoramic roof brightens the cabin considerably, though taller rear passengers should sit in one before ordering.
The Ultra is currently available from £337.14 a month. Against the Motion, that is currently £20.65/mo more expensive.
Kuro takes the Ultra's specification, including leather upholstery and the 360-degree camera, and adds 17-inch black alloy wheels. It's a looks-led choice rather than an equipment upgrade, and its entry version comes with all-wheel drive.
The Kuro is currently available from £494.95 a month. Against the Ultra, that is currently £157.81/mo more expensive.
Seven paint colours are offered across the range: cosmic black, energetic red, savanna ivory, silky silver, sphere blue, titan dark grey and white. If you're weighing up spec against mileage and term, our guide to choosing your car is a sensible half-hour.
If you're shopping around, the Nissan Qashqai, CUPRA Formentor, Škoda Kodiaq and Volkswagen T-Roc are all worth a look, and the rest of the Suzuki range is here too.
