Overview
On 3 March 2015, Suzuki released details of a small 4WD concept car, called the "Suzuki iM-4" at the 85th Geneva International Motor Show. On 30 October 2015, the production version, known as the Ignis was exhibited at the 44th Tokyo Motor Show. On 21 January 2016, Suzuki officially announced the launch of the Ignis for the first time in the Japanese market. The car is powered with two versions of the 1.25-litre K12C inline-four engine: a standard petrol, and a mild hybrid with 3Ah lithium-ion battery placed under the front passenger seat to store energy.

- Check the emissions equipment (particulate filter, NOx treatment) and the destination country's emissions rules; some markets restrict used diesels.
- Ask for service records: turbocharged engines are sensitive to oil changes and cool-down habits.
- Test the four-wheel-drive system (transfer case, differentials) and look for uneven tyre wear.
