Suzuki Vitara Review

The Suzuki Vitara is an excellent alternative if you're searching for a cheap SUV with a higher driving position that's reassuring to drive. Its eye-catching design ensures that you won't get lost in a parking lot, and there's plenty of room for passengers.

The front end is sporty, with some chrome trimmings injecting some life into the Suzuki's geometric headlights and a pair of upturned fog lights surrounding, giving it the appearance of wearing a comedic mustache disguise. These fun small embellishments continue on the inside as well. Silver accents can be seen on the air vents and steering wheel, and a few slabs of polished metal effect plastic on the dashboard and doors. 

Performance

The Suzuki Vitara is powered by a 1.6-liter M16 naturally aspirated engine that produces 115 horsepower and 156 Newton-meters of torque. The tiny crossover boasts vented discs up front and a solid disc in the rear to assist you to come to a halt. The front suspension consists of MacPherson struts combined with coil springs. However, at the back is a torsion beam suspension with coil springs. Both GLX variants have 17-inch polished alloy wheels as standard. All four wheels receive power.

Unlike its predecessor, the modern Suzuki Vitara is exclusively available in front-wheel drive. Power is not an issue, as the 1.6-liter engine produces 115 horsepower and 156 Nm of torque, providing power when needed without the need to downshift the transmission with paddle shifters manually. The engine's acceleration is also linear and frugal, making driving the vehicle more straightforward and predictable. The 6-speed transmission gets the job done, although there is a delay when you press the gas pedal down.

Exterior

The Vitara has LED projector headlamps and LED daytime running lights for the top trim level. On the other hand, the alternatives merely get projector halogens, which do the job in terms of lighting. It is available in either a monochromatic or two-tone color scheme. As a result, it can have a white or black roof to match the two-tone variations.

Interior

Vitara's interior is populated with plastics as Suzuki introduced the subcompact sector. According to Suzuki, the goal of the interior is to offer a more young and sporty appeal. The subcompact crossover has 375-liters of cargo space in the back. You get 335 liters of storage space when the seats are folded down. The GLX model has a sunroof. However, it can be bothersome due to light leaking through the relatively thin sunroof shade.

Safety

For GLX models, the Suzuki Vitara has dual front, side, and curtain airbags. An electronic stability program that reduces wheel spin, hill hold control, and a pedal release mechanism that minimizes pedal action in the case of a crash are among the additional safety features. Other amenities include front and rear parking sensors and a reversing camera.
