The Maruti Suzuki SX4 is a midsize sedan that offers many different options for customers with regard to fuel (petrol, diesel, and CNG), as well as roomy interiors and a unique style. This gallery contains images of the last facelift of the India-spec SX4, which was sold until production ended in 2014, showing the exterior, interior (including the size of the boot), and colour choices.
The final facelift arrived in 2013 with a revised grille, an updated bumper, a refreshed cabin, and additional convenience features. The final range included VXi and ZXi petrol versions, VDi and ZDi diesel variants and a factory-fitted CNG option. Since the SX4 is discontinued, buyers can now explore used Maruti SX4 cars on Spinny.

Maruti SX4 Exterior Images
With the facelift, the Maruti Suzuki SX4 has a standard three-box sedan form, with a long hood and a large glass area, while having a higher position from the ground compared to other cars of its class, giving it a somewhat rugged appearance while maintaining the proportions of a traditional sedan.
The final facelift measures about 4,500 mm long, 1,735 mm wide and around 1,550 mm tall, with a 2,500 mm wheelbase. Depending on the variant, it came with steel or alloy wheels and additional exterior equipment.
Key Highlights
| Exterior Feature | Highlight |
| Front design | Horizontal chrome grille and revised dual-tone bumper |
| Lighting | Smoked headlamp garnish and fog lamps on higher variants |
| Wheels | Steel or alloy wheels depending on trim |
| Rear styling | Large tail lamps and broad boot lid |
Front Profile
The front view of the updated SX4 features a wide horizontal grille with chrome accents, and the Suzuki emblem is front and centre. The new bumper from the 2013 update adds to the overall width of the vehicle’s front end, and the smoke coat around the headlights provides the vehicle with a sportier look.
Higher variants add front fog lamps with contrasting surrounds. The long bonnet and relatively high-set nose make the SX4 look more substantial than a low-slung sedan, and the generous glass area also helps outward visibility.
Side Profile
From the side, you can see how high the SX4 sits and the length of the cabin area. It has a 2500 mm wheelbase, providing a good amount of room within the cabin, and the high roofline and larger windows give the cabin an airy feel.
Lower variants use steel wheels, while higher versions get alloy wheels with wider tyres. Body-coloured handles and mirrors are offered depending on trim, while electrically folding ORVMs with integrated turn indicators were introduced with the facelift.
Rear Profile
The rear of the SX4 has large rear taillights mounted at the body’s outer edges and a wide centre boot lid. The design is straightforward and practical, and the design of the upright rear ultimately helps the SX4 provide a good amount of luggage space.
Higher variants add a rear defogger and additional trim. Overall, the SX4 combines traditional sedan proportions with a higher stance and practical detailing.
Maruti SX4 Interior Images
The SX4 facelift offers a black-and-beige interior that’s dual-tone. The black dashboard and beige fabric make a nice contrast, while the 2013 facelift introduced new trim finishes such as marble and wood. Chrome accents added around the A/C vents and door handles round out the overall look of the car’s interior.
The dashboard remains straightforward, with physical controls within easy reach. Higher variants add automatic climate control, steering-mounted controls and an optional touchscreen navigation system.
Key Highlights
- Dual-tone black-and-beige cabin
- Optional touchscreen audio and navigation system
- Automatic climate control on higher variants
- Steering-mounted audio controls and electrically folding ORVMs
Dashboard & Front Seats
The dashboard is generally divided horizontally, with the audio or touchscreen system located in the central position and the climate control directly beneath that. The optional touchscreen, which was introduced with the facelift, combines navigation, Bluetooth, music and messaging into one display.
Higher variants get automatic climate control, steering-mounted audio controls and additional chrome trim. The front seats are broad, while the driver’s seating position provides good visibility over the bonnet.
Second Row
The Maruti SX4 has a three-person rear bench seat with a total seating capacity of five. The 2,500 mm wheelbase provides sufficient knee room to allow legroom for passengers to sit comfortably, and the tall roofline means that the SX4 rear seat passenger experiences more headroom than lower sedans produced during the same timeframe.
The rear bench can take three passengers, while two adults are more comfortable over longer distances. A centre armrest is available on higher variants.
Boot Space
With its high-capacity storage space of 505 litres, the Maruti SX4 has one of the best practical characteristics (ability to carry items) in its class. This large boot area and the depth of its storage area provide adequate space for families to transport their luggage.
The broad boot lid provides straightforward access, while the conventional sedan body keeps luggage fully separated from the passenger cabin. On CNG versions, the factory-fitted cylinder reduces usable luggage space compared with the petrol and diesel models.
The interior of the SX4 is designed for maximum interior space, visibility, and ease of use, while the recent facelift provides sufficient additional equipment to create a more complete feel to the higher-grade models.
Maruti SX4 Colour Options
The 2013 facelift introduced Serene Blue and Granite Grey alongside the existing colour range. The official palette also included Glistening Grey, Beige, Silky Silver and Superior White.
| Colour Name | Type | Availability |
| Serene Blue | Metallic | Facelift range |
| Granite Grey | Metallic | Facelift range |
| Glistening Grey | Metallic | Facelift range |
| Beige | Metallic / premium finish | Facelift range |
| Silky Silver | Metallic | Facelift range |
| Superior White | Solid | Facelift range |
Serene Blue and Granite Grey added freshness to this facelifted SX4; the previous colour options gave most cars that were made before this year’s facelift a more basic look. The new colour options Glistening Grey and Silky Silver provide the sedan with a more subtle, understated aesthetic compared to the other vehicles. Superior White allows for a far less complex and cleaner design.
Beige offers a warmer look and suits the SX4’s mature styling. Since the car is now available only in the used market, actual colour availability depends on model year, variant and inventory.
Summary
The Maruti SX4 is a combination of a classic sedan body with a taller profile, a roomy interior, and a huge trunk (505 litres). The 2013 facelifted model introduced an enlarged chrome front grille, an updated bumper design, smoked headlamps, and additional colour options while also introducing alloy wheels and further equipment on the higher trim levels.
Inside, the SX4 offers a roomy five-seat layout, dual-tone cabin and practical controls. Higher variants add automatic climate control, steering-mounted controls and an optional touchscreen navigation system. Petrol, diesel and CNG choices broaden the used-car appeal.
