JY Turbo Prestige Hatchback 5dr Spts Auto 6sp 1.4T The Suzuki S-Cross is pitched as a premium contender in the small SUV class, where it competes with Mitsubishi's ASX, the MG ZS and Hyundai's Kona. Available in Turbo and Turbo Prestige form, the front-drive S-Cross is powered by a 103kW/220Nm 1.4-litre turbo petrol driving through a six-speed paddle-shift auto gearbox. Although it comes with electronic stability control, ABS braking with brake assist and seven airbags, its only shortfall is a lack of new-generation safety technology. This is partly compensated by a leather-trimmed interior with sat-nav standard on both versions, as well as Apple CarPlay/Android Auto functionality. Electric folding rear-view mirrors and 17-inch alloy wheels are standard.
ABS brakes automatically sense when a tire has stopped rotating under extreme braking, and will modulate the brake pressure to allow the tire to rotate.This increases the vehicles ability to turn while braking.
Stability control automatically senses when the vehicles handling limits have been exceeded and reduces engine power and/or applies select brakes to help prevent the driver from losing control of the vehicle.
Front-impact airbags for the driver and passenger have been designed to protect the head during a frontal crash.
Side impact airbags for the front seats have been designed to protect the torso during a side impact collision.
Overhead airbags are used to protect the occupant's heads in the event of a side collision or rollover.
Seatbelt pretensioners automatically tighten seatbelts to place the occupant in the optimal seating position during a collision.
Anti-whiplash head restraints actively react to rear collision forces and craddle the occupants head in an effort to reduce the likelihood of a whiplash injury.
The vehicle is equipped with a means of anticipating and/or detecting unwanted vehicle intrusion. The vehicle is equipped with an ignition disable device that will prevent the engine from starting if the correct original manufacturer key is not used.
