The SX4’s engine has twin cams and four valves per cylinder. Apart from the strong midrange where a thick slug of torque makes overtaking effortless, the lack of low-end grunt and a reluctance to rev eagerly limits this engine’s appeal. The SX4’s engine feels best on a part-throttle and is essentially best for sedate motoring. When driven flat-out against the clock, the SX4 takes a modest 12.1 seconds to 100kph. SX4's M16A motor doesn't exactly leap up to the red line, labouring up after around 5000rpm, the motor getting coarse and strained. The in-gear acceleration from 20-80 in third gear takes 13.75 seconds, while 40-100 in fourth gear comes in 20.92 seconds. The SX4’s fuel economy is not poor but it’s nothing to write home about either. 9.3kpl in the city and 14.5kpl on the highway is nothing exceptional.
