2004 Suzuki Verona LX review from North America
"Good value if purchased. Parts may be hard other than at the dealership"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Just a problem with the engine stumbling when cold. This was fixed with re-programming the engine engine computer. Covered by the factory warranty. No other issues so far.
General comments?
Very good looking car, very comfortable and a great value when purchased used. The Verona gets OK fuel mileage (averaging 21 MPG) in mixed driving and get about 25 to 26 MPG at on the highway.
Performance from the 2.5 I-6 is OK, but not a rocket ship due to the vehicle's weight. The engine has good torque and is quite smooth. The transmission is not perfectly suited for the engine and often shifts roughly. Not a perfect car, but great for the low $$$ investment.
