Сузуки Аэрио: Тарихы мен модификациялары

The Suzuki Aerio (also called the Liana – Life In A New Age – in China, Pakistan, Europe, Israel, South Asia, Taiwan and Australia or Baleno for sedan version in Indonesia) is a subcompact car that was built by Suzuki. It was introduced in 2001 as a replacement for the Suzuki Esteem/Baleno, with a tall 5 door SX model hatchback (for maximum inner room efficiency) and a 4 door sedan body. It featured two different 16 valve gasoline inline four engines, with 1.5 litre and 1.8 litre, this one capable of JIS. Production was discontinued in 2007 around the world and replaced by the Suzuki SX4, except in Pakistan (2006 to 2014) and China where production was continued by Changhe Suzuki until 2019.

Models in North America got a larger and more powerful 2.0 litre engine with A 5 speed manual transmission was standard with a 4 speed automatic optional. All wheel drive was available, but only with the automatic. American Aerios came in two trim levels: the S and GS (2002–2004), S and SX (2005), and Base and Premium (2006–2007). Key changes over the years included an upgrade to a new 2.3 liter engine in 2004, a major styling and interior refresh in 2005 (replacing the digital instruments with conventional analog ones), and the standardization of antilock brakes in 2006. Only the Aerio sedan remained for 2007, as the hatchback had been shelved to make room for the new 2007 SX4 hatchback. Likewise, the Aerio sedan bowed out at year's end, making way for the 2008 SX4 Sport sedan. Throughout its run, the Aerio was distinct for being the most affordable car in America to offer all wheel drive. In Europe, where the car was called Liana (an acronym for Life In A New Age), it was seen as a more affordable alternative to small family cars or to mini MPVs, introducing a new generation of Suzuki M engines, with 1.3 litre and 1.6 litre I4 engine. All wheel drive was available on the bigger engine. In 2004, the car was restyled with a look that closer resembled the Japanese version, and also received a Diesel engine, with a 16 valve version of the 1.4 litre HDi engine supplied by PSA Peugeot Citroën, capable of thanks to common rail direct injection and a variable geometry turbocharger. The Liana remained in production in Pakistan in 1.3 litre and 1.6 litre variants until 2014.

Changhe Suzuki in China released a new 1.4 litre Liana hatchback in October 2010, called Liana a+, which has been sold alongside 1.6 litre versions. Prior to 2013, the Liana retained the same styling as the international version. The Liana was facelifted for sedan and hatchback models with styling unique to China in April 2013.
