KBB Editors' Overview
Endowed with a bit more aggressively styled bodywork than the Suzuki Forenza on which it's based, the five-door, front-drive Suzuki Reno hatchback has room, ride comfort and lots of standard features, but a somewhat dated mechanical package. With a very attractive base price compared to the Honda Fit, Kia Spectra5, MAZDA3, Nissan Versa and Toyota Matrix, and backed by a truly outstanding warranty, it offers budget-minded buyers the chance to acquire a practical and reliable new car. However, seizing that opportunity requires accepting a one-trim-fits-all package with performance and handling characteristics that fall behind many of the current segment leaders. Given that the same holds true for its resale value, maximizing your investment in a Reno also means being prepared to live with it for a while.

You'll Like This Car If...	You May Not Like This Car If...
When the words "new" and "budget" both figure prominently in your car-buying equation, the Reno's admirable combination of style, space and standard equipment has an undeniable charm -- particularly when you factor its comprehensive warranty into that mix.	Anyone seeking the leading edge of automotive thought or design will be better served looking elsewhere. A decently executed but decidedly aging basic economy car, the Reno lacks the quickness, agility, fuel efficiency and innovative features offered by many of its newer competitors -- including Suzuki's own and only slightly pricier SX4 and SX4 Sport models.

What's Significant about this Car?

Minor tweaks add steering-wheel audio controls to the Convenience Package and Bluetooth wireless connectivity to the options list while the sunroof gets eliminated from the Reno's already-meager available-extras roster.
