At first it may seem that there isn't a whole lot of cargo space, even with the seats down but they also fold forward which creates a ton of carrying space in the back. Easily the best part about this car is the All Wheel Drive system. Like all AWD cars the SX4 has a very planted feel that really gives you a lot of confidence in the car when you're driving in bad weather; the benefits of AWD easily outweigh the higher fuel consumption and cost though fuel consumption is quite good when in 2WD mode.
