2022 Suzuki Vitara Full Hybrid uk review

Neat car..The lack of rear headroom is due to the sunroof. I had a Vitara S and no sunroof. Will there be a full EV version soon do you think?

'Better for the environment' , I'll take that slogan seriously when F1 stops burning thousands of litres of fuel per race. And aviation fuel is not a thing. 🤣

Glad to see a review,even a shirt one for the new hybrid and its new engine and gearbox.Glad to see the Vitara is still chuckable and the new engine sounds just like the 1.6l when you rev it🙂.Still Suzuki is movomg with dualjet engines in all their new cars these days. They released 3 models in the past few months(not in Europe cause ,reasons🤷) and they are all dualjet in various displacements. The torque maybe down from thier previous iterations but they perform just as well and the fuel savings are up especially when paired with the AGS or even a torque converter.

Sorry, what?! £40k you said near the start?! That can't be right! Suzuki's website shows that the SZ5 allgrip full hybrid goes for £29,299. And btw Toyota badge up some of Suzuki's cheaper models (such as the Baleno as the Glanza) in Eastern markets like India not the middle east

The 1500 cc engine is already in the Jimny so not new. Just go for the 1400 turbo automatic. The one i drive.

Would you go as far as to say the gearbox is a dealbreaker? Thank you.

Don't get sunroof if you're over six foot!
Still looks a bit dated outside (and the horrible protruding rear light clusters) and inside infotainment not top notch and dated analogue dials.
Still a niche product and won't trouble it's competitors in this category!

It’s not the first “hybrid” Vitara. They have had the 1.4 hybrid for a couple of years. It’s not a full hybrid, but still it was a good start. I have one and love it.

Dost seem like much of a hybrid compared to a Toyota hybrid
