A smaller predecessor to the Suzuki SX4, the Suzuki Aerio was designed to be a worthy competitor to the Toyota Corolla but it failed to capture international attention despite its six years in the market. It came into production in 2001 combining a minivan and a hatchback design. It’s available as a sedan and a 5-door hatchback wagon. There are several things that can be linked to the Aerio’s short-lived run. Thanks to the sedan-minivan combination, the Aerio boasts of a roomy cabin and a large boot space. If you can look past the subpar design, the Suzuki Aerio is a pretty good car for a small family. Generations First Generation (2001-2007)
