Available for Suzuki Grand Vitara XSport and luxury cars have a new 3.2-liter V6, 230 hp and 213 Nm of torque, replacing the 2.7-liter engine V6 in 2008, the Grand Vitara that produced 185 horsepower and 184 Nm of torque. Despite the increase in 45 horses, the new V6 engine for better fuel economy ratings old.

Suzuki four-wheel drive modes offers the best of both worlds: the most helped by a completely retuned suspension, is exceptionally capable off road, but it is civilized on the asphalt. On the road, drivers can leave the switch in the dash box of 4H and the electronically controlled on-demand four-wheel drive system will apply traction to the front wheels only when necessary, the economic optimization.

Built as a brute
Suzuki Grand Vitara Suzuki continues 40-year heritage of building compact, yet rugged SUV-type, including a model named "Brute." The current Grand Vitara has proven its durability in some of the most difficult global markets. The key to the Grand Vitara is mat is its ability to unibody construction with integrated ladder frame, rear-wheel drive transmission and based four-wheel independent suspension. Typically, the luxury SUVs offer this premium architecture. This construction gives strength and capabilities sought in large SUVs, while providing the agility on the road and ride quality expected in a modern compact SUV.
It also separates the Suzuki Grand Vitara from the "high wagons" in the segment is the availability of a four-mode four-wheel full two-tier system transfer case. This material, along with its robust body approach and departure angles steeper, and 7.9 inches of ground clearance (4WD models), enables the Grand Vitara to keep going when the road becomes a trail. In addition, the Suzuki Grand Vitara 3000 lbs. towing capacity (with V6) is double that of many car-based models and light enough to carry the boats, ATVs and motorcycles.
