The 2020 Suzuki Ignis is available in two trim levels with prices ranging from $16,690 before on-road costs for the base Ignis GL manual to $18,990 before on-road costs for the Ignis GLX auto.

    Though it looks like an upright city car and comes only with front-wheel drive, Suzuki markets the Ignis as an SUV. That makes it Australia’s cheapest SUV, undercutting the much larger Chinese Haval H2 by over $2000.

    It also means the Ignis doesn’t really have any direct rivals.

    Safety

    The Suzuki Ignis has yet to be tested by ANCAP.

    All 2020 Suzuki Ignis models come standard with anti-lock brakes, and front, front-side and curtain airbags but there’s no active safety technology like autonomous emergency braking (AEB).

    Suzuki recently revealed a facelifted version for the Japanese market that adds AEB and lane-departure warning. We don’t yet know when it’s coming here and if the Australian-market Ignis will receive that equipment.
