Vehicle Highlights

Both use a 143-hp 4-cyl engine and a 5-speed manual transmission or optional 4-speed automatic. The AWD lacks low-range gearing, but can be set for front drive only, for AWD, and for a locked-in 50/50 front/rear power split. ABS is standard. Sports add traction/antiskid control. SX4s come with front side airbags, curtain side airbags, and a 60/40 split folding rear seat. Sports have automatic climate control, keyless entry/starting, cruise control, and heated door mirrors.
