The Suzuki Forenza and Reno were compact cars produced by Suzuki from 2004 to 2008. They were essentially identical twins, the Forenza being marketed as a sedan and the Reno as a hatchback. These models were designed to appeal to a wider audience than previous Suzuki offerings, aiming for a more mature and sophisticated image. They were built on a modified version of the Suzuki SX4 platform, sharing many components with the Chevrolet Optra and Pontiac G3, which were also built by GM Daewoo in South Korea. Both the Forenza and Reno were available with a 1.6-liter or a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, paired with a five-speed manual or a four-speed automatic transmission. The Forenza and Reno offered a comfortable and spacious interior for their class, with standard features like air conditioning, power windows, and a CD player.

While the Forenza and Reno received generally positive reviews for their fuel efficiency, affordability, and comfortable ride, they were criticized for their lackluster performance and somewhat bland styling. They also faced competition from other popular compact cars of the era, like the Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Mazda3. Despite efforts to attract a wider audience, the Forenza and Reno never achieved the same level of success as their competitors. Their production ended in 2008, marking the end of Suzuki's foray into the compact car segment in North America. The service repair manual for these models is a valuable resource for owners and mechanics, providing detailed instructions and diagrams for maintenance and repair procedures, ensuring the vehicle continues to operate safely and reliably.
