"Big things comes in small packages." That should be Suzuki's tagline for their new SX4. This tiny SUV has a ton of room. I'm 6'4" and had no problems fitting in either the front or rear seats. Even the trunk area is very roomy...
It comes with a 2.0L engine and 3-mode AWD (FWD, AWD, 4WD-lock), which the driver can toggle back and forth, as he/she sees fit. It also comes with a choice of a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic. Suzuki expects the SX4 to start around $16K.

This is exactly the kind of vehicle that Suzuki is good at - something slightly different, small, and sporty. It should give Subaru pause!

Will this be replacing the Aerio?

ethanwest, yes it will be replacing the Aerio. You can see how because you can get this with AWD like the Aerio. To me this looks better then the Aerio I also like how they got rid of the black back door like on the Aerio, I know some people liked that I just didn't.

Why couldnt they get the rear seats to fold flat like in my Aerio?

Fold and tumble rear seats give you a lot more room. Much deeper. I prefer that to fold flat seats.

UGH, I sent an email to Suzuki asking about the change in the front bumper they have made for the US market. It makes it look like a vibe because of the Fog light panel area. They said yes this is the US version. I like the European version a lot better. Shame they had to mess with it. Why do companies do that? They had a different and unique looking front and ruined it by "Americanizing" it.
