Geo Metro 1989-2001 (Suzuki Cultus-based)

1989–2001 · hatchback

Suzuki Cultus rebadged as a Geo (Chevrolet Metro after 1997). First-gen XFi trim ran the 1.0L 3-cylinder G10 making 49 hp, weighed under 1,700 lb, and returned EPA-rated 53 city/58 highway — numbers no production gasoline car has matched since. Second gen (1995-2001) added a 1.3L 4-cylinder and a sedan.

Watch out: 1.0L G10 head gasket failure is the model-defining repair, especially on high-mileage examples. Rust around the rear shock towers, wheel arches, and floor pans. Crash protection is minimal by modern standards — drive it knowing what it is.
