en si no hay mucha diferencia aparte del motor… la mayor diferencia es la cantidad de bolsas de aire que tienen y los rines de fabrica
I love this SUV!
how much is th 2009 model?
I just purchased an 09 Grand Vitara X-Sport V6. One word: Incredible! The new engine is awesome, lots of power. By far, the best compact SUV out there!
I would have this over a CR-V or RAV4 any day. This is actually has SUV characteristics, unlike the competitors.
is the cheapest solution
I owned a 1999 grand vitara, and never had a problem , and for off-roading or going uphill this car is more than enough, too bad I had to sell it.
In 2006, we purchased a 2006 grand vitara 2.7 V6, so far we hadn’t have any major problem. It has been 3 yrs now since we have it. However, it is very well maintained. We never abuse the car. After 3 yrs, I start to appreciate grand vitara because whenever we are buying big stuffs, such as tv or furniture, things seem to fit in that SUV. Last month i bought a queen size headboard, the salesman of that furniture thought it wont fit in our car, but it did..
el suzuki grand vitara nuevo es lo mas bonito del mundo y lo mas bueno que me lo digan a mi que tengo uno y ademas de las primeras unidades de 3 puertas me lo compre en noviembre del 2005 y vaya joya que me compre ya quisiera mucha gente tener un coche tan bueno como este TE QUIERO GRAND VITARA 2005
I have chevrolet tracker 2001 model car which also made by suzuki, the engine is great & it will last longer than i expected. I never have any single problem with my tracker & it run flawlessly. I would highly recommend to everyone to buy the suzuki brands of car!!!
I have a 2007 GV Xsp. Seems to me that Suzuki was in a hurry to release this designe early in 2006 but the new engine intended for it would not be available until late 2008. So they decided to use the old GV H seiries engine used in the 1999 to 2005 model. The 2.7L V6 is 1990s technology used in a modern design. I think Suzuki sould have waited until 2009 to release the new design and use the engine that was intended for this vehicle.
I’m Grand Vitaras owner since 2007 and never had a problem I like this SUV !
i had vitara 2000 cc since 2006 a great car save my life in car accident in my side ..a great car
On the Suzuki Grand Vitara, is the outer surface of the front bumper metal or plastic?
I’m seeking a way to add a small electric winch short of installing a grill guard. If the bumper is metal, I may bolt the winch directly to that.
By the way, I’m open to suggestions from those with winch experience.
I have a 2007 Grand Vitara sport and I don’t like it too much. Not enough power and drivers behind me tell me to ‘get that piece of sh** out of their way.’
I feel embarassed to be seen on the road at times trying to defend the reputation of Suzuki against say a Toyota 4Runner or Chevy.
I may see like the cheapest solution but certainly not the best.
If you’re so “embarassed” to be seen in it, trade it in.
I have owned a plethora of Suzukis and have been impressed with all of them. I still have an 88 Samurai, and a 95 Sidekick. I sold my 02 GV to a family member, and bought a 09 GV 3.2L XSport. Fantastic vehicle! The 3.2L will not be passed by any Chevy or Toyota SUV… So, rbolo29, do you actually have people telling you to get that “POS” out of their way, or are you being dramatic….
You MUST live in America. Let the redneck think they are cool with their monstertrucks and jeep v8s, let them destroy the environment och get embarressed when they get stuck do to a high weight of the truck etc, Suzuki is a very good all-terrainer for the money and looks nice to.
lol okay this car really actually sucks badd, i was sittin in the rear seat of my friends moms for about 2 hours drivin somewhere and my ass was sore for 3 fucking days, also it feels very cheap, suzuki sucks lol go bmw.
Northamerican people never trust in something that is not GM or Ford….since they think their innefficient engines and disgusting design cars are the best, car makers from other countries must offer an incredible warranty. Suzuki Vitara is a GREAT OFF ROADER, best option out there if you want a small real off roader. Everything else (Rav4, CRV, Sportage, Equinox) is just a family crossover sedan platform based SUV with no Low-range options, just electronic AWD systems.
OMG!!! Samurai 88!!! that is the Jimny’s grandpa!! dude, that little 4×4 is just AWESOME!!!
They are plastic in the front, I have a tracker and the easiest way I found to mount the winch was to bolt a very thick plate onto the front top of the frame rails, and have this plate stick out just past the grill enough to bolt the winch to it. May be able to modify the front of the GV in a similar way, but I think the grill might be one piece with the bumper
I also had gran vitara model 2002 it also saved my life in a car accident , nice strong car indeed.
I like it how he says americans are downsizing, then he reviews a huge SUV…
Is it just me or he said “big ass on the front” 0:35
I drove this in my field yesterday, my first go at driving.
I’m ten years old!
