Review: 2008 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Go to MYRIDE.COM for more car videos.
The Suzuki Grand Vitara is a bit of an anomaly in the small SUV segment, in that it's a true rear-wheel-drive based off-roader, with a ladder frame and a legitimate mud-tracking potential.

And 16 years later in 2024 it's still a pretty nice vehicle.

don't hear what critics say..
do your own search, see what you need and want from a car, and buy it...

this is really good. suzuki's are really good cars nowadays. but why can't we get the swift here in the states?

[@occultdestroyer]

Grand Vitara is one of the best TRUE off-road SUVs in the market..
It's in the same league as the Land Cruiser and Nissan Patrol.

these are solid vehicles, mediocre gas mileage but with excellent handling, with 2 people it works great, the engine revs cause how its designed, an extra 15 HP would have been great, too bad it never caught on in North America.

all Suzuki cars today are great ! good value of many with many features n many fun buttons to play.The interior is economical too like Suzuki SX4 sedan i own Suzuki is better than Toyota at making cheap cars.

[@dargay]

[@elswine1978]

That is the point of critique is it not? to look at everything with a microscope? letting readers know what's not great and letting them decide whether it's an issue?
Pointless to read/write reviews if they are not critical. Product improvements will never happen... and you, the consumer, end up buying things that really aren't any good.

I don't mean to be rude, but how many oversized Americans can actually fit into a Swift....???

I have a 2007 Grand Vitara X-sport and it has a rough ride along with lack of acceleration plus noisy engine with cheap feeling interior.
A lot of drivers behind me tell me to 'get that piece of crap out of my way' and procede to manoeuver around me.
Suzuki Grand Vitara gets no respect on the roads here in Albuquerque,NM.
