Fiat Sedici side

The Suzuki SX4 is a crossover the instant you stride into foreign markets like Italy. It’s rebadged as the Fiat Sedici in those countries.

The facelifted Fiat Sedici was supposed to be seen by the world at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show, but thanks to spy photographers, who have successfully pooped Fiat’s plans, we’re able to see it now. In what looks like a parking lot, the facelited Sedici has been snapped without any camouflage.

Fiat Sedici bumper

What sets the current and future Sedici apart is a fresh grille and a new over-ly designed front bumper. On the inside, the instrument panel has been altered and the air-con buttons and knobs have been revised.

Will the Maruti Suzuki SX4 undergo this cosmetic change too? We don’t think it’s a good idea to carry over that off roader-faking bumper on the snappy SX4 sedan. It’ll aggravate the already dreadful sales numbers.

The site also reports that there will be mechanical changes as well- a run of petrol and diesel motors have been planned. More details will arise in the months to come. So stay tuned to IAB.

    This is not a spy shot, Silly. Clearly its a new car just out of the showroom – or rather in the sales office parking lot! The first picture shows the other new Sedici’s parked at the far end.
    Atleast you should have made it out by noticing the small sticky plastic sheets on the steering – over the FIAT logo and over the AC display.
