Buying the 2001 Suzuki Esteem
No 2001 Suzuki Esteem is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Thinking about the 2001 Suzuki Esteem? Here are the numbers in plain words and what to check.
What to check on the Esteem
Owners filed 21 complaints with NHTSA, most often about structure, suspension and engine and engine cooling; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
What the figures tell you
The powertrain to know here is the 1.6L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated at 8.1 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 24 litres. At our price setting, it costs about $12.56 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,300 a year for 15,000 miles.
Space and size
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. At 340 litres, the trunk fits about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Best uses
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Try before you buy
Rent the Esteem for a week and see how it fits your life. Try the Esteem on your commute, then decide. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Money matters
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Picking a year and a trim
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
Your move
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
