Before you buy a new car you should check greenvehicleguide for fuel economy. I am not surprised that your fuel economy is so bad.

The base model Tiida (ST) does not even offer power windows in the front. That was a major turn off for me. The They also carry drum brakes throughout the range. For my money the Suzuki represents better value and versatility - just check out the back seats ! Just going back to the Tiida issue.

Better than manufacturers figures! That's never happened to me before, ever, with any car. And this is AWD (which i use, light duty off road dirt stuff/mud/sand... kangaroo island... :) I put an SX4 dirt offroad test on youtube i made. showing the benefits of AWD lock mode over 2WD. I love the keyless entry/start, never have to fumble for a remote control again, i just forget about it. good ground clearance, all the weird draiins and ditches around the place where the council haven't maintaned the roads don't bottom out.

As far as I know the only Japanese car in this class that has a 2.0 litre is the Lancer, and it's actually 2.4 and costs more. Nissan does not actually have a better reputation than Suzuki either. Just ask owners of the 3.0 diesel Patrol, and you'll find it is probably the other way around. If you are trying to say Australians are less aware of the quality of Suzuki, I'd agree with you. You will remember that the Tiida sold nothing when launched and the price was $19990, they had to drop the price $2000 and add some fruit before anyone looked at them.
