2007 Suzuki Aerio Premium

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2007 Aerio Premium.

Body PASSENGER CARTransmission Automatic 4-spd

The 2007 Suzuki Aerio Premium represents the compact passenger car iteration of Suzuki’s front-wheel-drive platform, pairing its modest footprint with a smooth-shifting four-speed automatic transmission and a fuel-efficient powertrain that delivers a respectable 28 mpg on the highway. As one of the final model years before the Aerio’s discontinuation, this iteration stands out for its remarkably low owner-reported issues, with just three total complaints logged—none of which triggered a recall. The near-flawless reliability record, particularly in critical systems like the service brakes, suggests this year’s Aerio Premium may offer researchers a rare example of a budget-friendly compact that balanced simplicity with dependability in an era when many rivals struggled with more frequent faults.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs every 60,000 mi; coolant every 30,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 30,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.
