Overview Information

Suzuki offers the compact Forenza in sedan and wagon models. The Daewoo manufactured Forenza was designed by Pininfarina, and is built in Korea. All Forenzas are powered by a 127-bhp 2.0L engine mated to a standard 5-speed manual or optional 4-speed automatic. Although the Forenza is a roomy and well-equipped sedan, it has no real price advantage compared to its Japanese or American competition. However, the Forenza wagon has few competitors in its segment, which makes it a viable option for families looking for extra cargo hauling capability at a reasonable cost.
