The Daewoo Magnus is a mid-sized sedan developed and manufactured by Daewoo for model years 2000-2006 under a single generation, and marketed globably by GM Daewoo and other General Motors divisions, as well as GMDAT stake holder Suzuki. Developed under its internal Daewoo designation V200, the Magnus was marketed prominently in the United States as the Suzuki Verona.

The V200 is a successor to the Daewoo Leganza (model V100), used a larger chassis of its platform. Launched in 23 November, it was sold alongside the Leganza in Korea until the end of V100's production in 2002, when it also superseded it in export markets. The V200 itself was given an extensive facelift for 2006, which resulted in the model known as V250, or Daewoo Tosca in Korea. The V250 completely superseded all versions of the V200 during 2006.

The Evanda comes equipped with the Daewoo-developed XK6 inline-6 engine (DOHC 24V, 155 hp (116 kW) at 5800 rpm, 177 lb⋅ft (240 N⋅m) of torque at 4000 rpm – Canadian specification) or a Holden-built 2.0 L D-TEC inline-4 (DOHC 16V) carried over from the Leganza. ItalDesign of Italy was responsible for the styling and design of both the Leganza and Magnus. However, the upcoming V250 was styled in Korea by GM Daewoo.

Suzuki Verona 2005
  • Date Of Incident: 2023-10-02
  • Date Complaint: 2023-11-06
  • VIN: KL5VM56L75B
  • Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
  • Summary: This issue pertains to Safety Recall Notice No. XC - All 2004-2006 Suzuki Verona Vehicles - DRL System. Please note, the vehicle manufacturer provided documentation service was performed and the DRL Module (part 38860-84Z21-RX0) was replaced at mileage 49470. My wife and I are the original owner and the mileage is 61,000-62,000 currently. Approximately 1 month ago we experienced a slight odor like something electrical was burning. Recently, we noticed 1) That the Daytime Running Lights glow at first and gradually reach full intensity. 2) When switching from low headlights to high beams, all headlights go completely out for about 6 seconds before coming on gradually. Because Suzuki automobiles are no longer sold in the United States, the nearest support dealer is located 150 miles away. A local auto repair shop diagnosed and determined the DRL Module part mentioned in the original recall needs to be replaced. We contacted the support dealer, who, in turn, contacted Suzuki USA about the issue. Suzuki USA indicates they complied with the original recall and refuse to comply a second time. The original recall service report indicated a $122.60 cost for the part. Currently, Suzuki has the part and wants $294 for it, and they consider the repair to be a billable service. We have not been able to locate any alternate part sources and must rely on Suzuki for this item. I am [XXX] old and if I have to drive 150 miles (one way) to make the repair, it will involve the additional cost of an overnight hotel. My local repair guy can do the repair, which I'm willing to pay for if Suzuki can supply the part at $0 or at least for only their product cost. Otherwise, I do not feel safe driving the car with the possibility of having a fire (per the recall notice). Even if no fire occurs, it certainly is not safe without dependable headlights. Won't you please help us? Thank you in advance for your assistance. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

    I can understand your frustration with your Verona. It seems like you have had a difficult experience with it. Have you tried contacting Suzuki's customer service to see if they can help resolve the issues you are having? I hope you are able to find a solution soon. Best of luck!

    Vehicle year: 2005

    Hi there! I wanted to share my experience with my car. I've had it since 2005 and unfortunately, I've had some issues with the motor and electricity. The check engine light has come on five times, and I took it to the dealer for diagnosis. It took them a week to figure out the problem, and unfortunately, the warranty didn't cover these issues. I'm planning on notifying the BBB, but I wanted to share my story with you first.

  3. Eusebio Berge 2025-04-24

    It would be even better if it offered better fuel economy and more speed.

  4. Justyn Wolf 2025-04-11

    American Suzuki vehicles have a history of numerous problems, including loss of power and rapid depreciation. However, it is important to note that the issues are not insurmountable and can be addressed with proper maintenance and care.

  5. Richard Feil 2025-04-08

    Vehicle year: 2005

    With only 54k on the car, I have already replaced the MAP at $75, MAF at $90 (twice), head gasket under warranty, catalytic converter under warranty, ignition coils at $800+ (all 6), and a fuel pump under warranty, within just a year and a half of owning the car. Despite bringing it back to the dealer for a recurring problem with the car's idle dropping to about 400 and dying or surging to 1200, they were unable to duplicate the issue, stating that it drove fine for them. However, I have noticed that the transmission shifts rough. It is disappointing that the car has the power of a 4cyl with all the mpg of a v8. Nonetheless, I am confident that the issue will be resolved soon.

    We purchased our Verona mainly for comfort. My wife has arthritis in her neck and most cars force her to hold her head so it is painful to ride in. The Verona is excellent. It is extremely comfortable to ride in and spacious. I am 6'2

  2. Sylvester Lemke 2025-05-11

    Initial mileage readings up to 11,000 miles were only 18-19 mpg. However, after 11,500 miles, mileage improved to present 23.8 mpg city driving

  3. Gordon Jacobs 2025-05-10

    Vehicle year: 2005

    My fiancée and I were looking for a new car and we were considering a Kia Optima. However, when the salesman offered us a test drive of a 2005 Suzuki Verona, we were both drawn to it because of its design and features. The car shares its lines with the Toyota Camry, but it is indeed a Suzuki! I was impressed with the woodgrain accents, as well as the placement of the easy-to-use controls in the car's interior. But what impressed me even more was the car's handling during the test drive. It has plenty of power and a very smooth and quiet ride. The keyless entry and trunk release built into the key itself are also a plus. This is definitely a must-have ride! And this comes from a die-hard GM owner who has just been turned onto imports!

  4. Ansel Brakus 2025-05-05

    Vehicle year: 2005

    I absolutely adore my Verona! It has been a reliable car for me, with 9000 miles and counting. Despite some negative comments I've read about it, I haven't experienced any issues with mine. The design, both inside and out, is fantastic and I'm surprised I don't see more of them on the road. It's definitely a lot of car for the money. I think Suzuki could improve sales by advertising it more. If you're considering buying one, I highly recommend it - you won't be disappointed!

  5. Felipe Sanford 2025-04-25

    Hey there! I noticed that you recently purchased a car. Congratulations! I hope you're enjoying it so far. I just wanted to let you know that I think you made a great choice with this car. It has some amazing features and a really good motor. The only downside is that it might not be the most fuel-efficient option out there. However, overall it seems like a really reliable car. Thanks for sharing your experience with me!
