Suzuki Vitara Full Hybrid First Drive (2022)

Suzuki is well ahead of the game with its cleaner, greener motoring policy with every model in its line-up offering hybrid technology in one form or another.

And the latest car to be given the full hybrid treatment is the Vitara, a popular five-door compact SUV with bags of character and lots of tech as standard.

The Vitara has been available with 48v mild hybrid technology working alongside a 1.4-litre petrol engine for some time. But now customers can make extra day-to-day savings by checking out the full hybrid version.

This four-cylinder, 1.5-litre petrol engine and 140v lithium battery combined with a 24kW electric motor is completely new, so is not the same as seen in the Suzuki Swace.

It is only available with Suzuki’s AGS system which stands for Automated Gear Select. However, there are paddles so the car can be driven similarly to a manual model if desired.

This version will eventually replace the mild hybrid Vitara although Suzuki will keep a model with manual transmission due to high customer demand.

New Vitara full hybrid is available in trim levels called SZ-T and SZ5 – the latter of which also has the option of ALLGRIP 4WD.

Prices range from £25,499 and rise to £29,299. The only optional extra is two-tone bodywork that adds a contrast black roof to the mix. This increases the final cost by £835.

The latest Vitara was given quite a makeover in 2019 with new bumpers, a redesigned front grille and upgraded LED lighting. So, the updates to the 2022 model are beneath the skin so to speak.

The full hybrid system delivers 115PS of power and 138Nm of torque, enabling it to complete the 0-62mph dash in 13.5 seconds and onto a top speed of 111mph.

It can achieve combined fuel efficiency of 48.4mpg with carbon emissions of 132g/km under WLTP testing. And although the full hybrid is more expensive than the mild hybrid Vitara, Suzuki explained that owners who cover 10,000 miles each year will see savings of about £10 per month.

Our range-topping Vitara full hybrid SZ5 with ALLGRIP featured the two-tone paintwork and certainly looked eye-catching and dynamic in its styling. The interior is also quite a classy place to be now with posh suede upholstery and lots of creature comforts to explore.

On-board tech includes a compact infotainment screen, a six-speaker sound system, sat nav, DAB digital radio, Bluetooth, a rearview parking camera and smartphone connectivity.

There is adaptive cruise control with a speed limiter which is really practical considering howmany stretches of road are restricted by variable speed limits these days.

The cockpit is driver focused and many of the systems can be accessed via steering wheel controls to avoid driver distraction.

When it comes to performance, the Suzuki is nice enough to drive. It can be a little rev-happy if pushed on, but it cruises effortlessly at 70mph with barely a sound filtering into the cabin.

There are new Eco and Standard drive modes that alter the handling and efficiency of the car, and the ALLGRIP set-up introduces its own modes too. These are called Auto, Sport, Snow and lock. Auto is best suited for maximising the fuel efficiency and uses two-wheel drive as a default. The Sport mode is ideal for twisting country lanes, Snow offers extra grip in the snow or when travelling on other slippery surfaces and, finally, Lock is used for freeing the car from snow, mud or sand.

The Vitara is nicely balanced on the open road and if tighter bends are attacked a little too eagerly you will get a warning about the body sway. The steering is okay but a little light for my liking. This is perfect for busy town centre driving but a little more feedback would be great on the faster B roads.

Hill climbs are easily achieved but overtaking takes some planning as the instant turn of pace is quite limited. However, it is worth remembering that this is no boy racer model. It is a practical family car and, with that in mind, it works really well.

With a new suspension set-up and practically-sized 17-inch alloy wheels, the ride is comfortable and most bumps are smoothed out along the way. In addition, the driver benefits from excellent all-round visibility thanks to the slightly elevated seating position – this is vital as the Vitara will likely feature regularly on the dreaded school run.

On the practicality front, the Vitara stretches just over four metres in length and is 1.77 metres across. With a height of 1.6 metres there is plenty of rear passenger headroom despite the sloping roofline, and the wheelbase of 2.5 metres results in a spacious cabin with enough room for two adults to sit comfortably in the back.

The boot can swallow 289 litres of kit, increasing to 642 litres with the 60:40 split folding rear seats dropped down and an adjustable boot floor is handy to separate the likes of muddy football kit from all the other luggage.

There are also a number of storage compartments scattered throughout the vehicle for convenience.

The Vitara was awarded a maximum five-star rating when tested for its Euro NCAP score in 2015 and, since then, Suzuki has introduced a number of additional systems that all come as standard.

Safety tech includes a blind spot monitor, lane departure warning and lane departure prevention, rear cross traffic alert, traffic sign recognition, ISOFIX anchors, a tyre pressure monitor, vehicle sway warning (on ALLGRIP models), adaptive cruise control, seven airbags and plenty more besides.

There is also a clever set-up called Dual Sensor Brake Support that works between 3mph and 62mph. If it determines there is a risk of a collision up ahead, it issues an audio and visual warning. If these warnings are ignored, the brakes will automatically be applied to prevent the accident.

In a sector where so many manufacturers are vying for sales, companies need a unique selling point and Suzuki has one. It was voted the number one brand for customer trust and that is something Suzuki bosses are quite rightly very proud of.

And with the promise of a fully electrified car before 2025, these are exciting times for the popular Japanese car maker.

Suzuki Vitara 1.4 Boosterjet SZ5 ALLGRIP (long term loan)

Boasting strikingly good looks, a wealth of on-board technology and performance capabilities to match the styling, it’s easy to see why Suzuki proudly claims its latest 2019 Vitara model is its most technically advanced car ever.

It would be fair to say that the Vitara has always been an excellent all-rounder for any active family, but now the Japanese manufacturer has really upped the ante with styling upgrades, extra safety kit, a more premium interior and some punchy now powertrains.

And after four months behind the wheel of the all-singing, all-dancing range-topper – the Vitara SZ5 complete with ALLGRIP 4WD – I’m still looking for something to criticise!

The five-door Vitara, priced at £24,299 (£25,099 with options), looks sporty from any approach thanks to its upright stance with privacy glass, roof rails, wheel arch extensions, graphite grey door mirrors, chrome front grille and lower bumper trim, plus 17-inch alloys. It has Galactic Grey bodywork complemented by a black panoramic sunroof with two individual glass panels which, when open, offer one of the largest apertures in its class.

Step inside and the bright, spacious cabin is very upmarket with a clutter-free layout. And there is plenty of technology to be explored with the likes of Bluetooth connectivity, a navigation system and a DAB digital radio with six-speaker sound system.

The Smartphone Linkage Display Audio with a seven-inch touchscreen is Suzuki’s techno-speak way of saying the car can connect to a smartphone with MirrorLink, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and there is also a three dimensional navigation map.

Getting comfortable is an easy process with ample seat and steering wheel adjustment, and the elevated driving position results in excellent all-round visibility which is a ‘must’ for a car that is likely to feature regularly on the dreaded school run. On that matter, there is plenty of leg room for a couple of passengers (three at a squeeze) to sit in the back provided the front seats are not pushed back too far.

Powering our Vitara was the latest 1.4-litre Boosterjet petrol engine delivering 140PS and 220Nm of torque. This was mated to a six-speed manual gearbox which was both smooth and responsive as it moved swiftly through the gears with a constant stream of power on tap. The car can sprint to 62mph from a standstill in 10.2 seconds, topping out at 124mph, and according to the latest WLTP figures, it can deliver combined fuel economy of 37.7mpg with carbon emissions of 169g/km (WLTP) or 139g/km (NEDC).

The Vitara feel nicely poised and balanced as it sweeps along the country lanes and bends can be attacked with a fair degree of confidence. The cabin is well insulated against any road surface or engine sounds, although at faster speeds you can expect to hear some wind noise due to the high-sided design of the car.

Even our network of pitted, potted and crumbing roads couldn’t deter the Vitara with the suspension system doing a very worthy job of smoothing out the creases.

In busy town centres, the Vitara is agile and easy to manoeuvre with the rear parking camera, plus front and rear parking sensors, helping to make light work of squeezing into small parking bays.

And after notching up more than 2,500 motorway miles in the Vitara I can happily say that it effortlessly cruises at 70mph with the ability to deliver sharp bursts of acceleration at higher speeds as and when required.

Having a test car long-term means you can leave lots of handy bits and pieces – otherwise known as junk – in the car for months on end. The boot is generously sized and can accommodate 375 litres of kit and this capacity can easily be increased to 710 litres with the 60:40 split-folding rear seats dropped down.

Elsewhere there are lots of handy storage compartments scattered throughout the car, including a glovebox, cup holders, a central cubby box, door pockets, a rear seat pocket and a double height boot floor.

The Vitara also comes kitted out with an impressive amount of safety kit that helped it secure a maximum five stars when it was tested by Euro NCAP. Features include anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, seven airbags, foot protecting brake and clutch pedals, a tyre pressure monitor, lane departure warning and prevention, vehicle sway warning, hill-hold control and hill descent control, blind spot monitor and rear cross traffic alert.

There is also a clever dual sensor brake support system that works between 3mph and 62mph. If the system detects a possible collision with a person or vehicle up ahead it delivers a visual and audio warning. If these warnings are ignored by the driver, the car will start braking automatically.

And finally, the Vitara SZ5 has ALLGRIP, Suzuki’s four-wheel drive system which has four modes called Auto, Sport, Snow and Lock. Auto is for day-to-day driving and maximises the fuel efficiency by using two-wheel drive as a default. Sport is perfect for twisting country lanes. The Snow setting delivers extra grip in the snow or when travelling on other slippery surfaces and finally Lock is used for extricating the car from snow, mud or sand.

There’s no denying that Suzuki is a brand that is going from strength to strength. It is currently enjoying superb global sales figures and the latest Vitara is a fine example of why so many motorists are turning to the manufacturer. It is very easy on the eye, nice to drive, practical, safe and competitively priced, making it quite the complete all-rounder.

Suzuki Vitara 1.0 Boosterjet SZT 4W

Once upon a time, few people would take much notice if Suzuki chiefs made an announcement about their cars – after all it’s a brand that makes great motorbikes and powerful speedboat engines, right?

Well, yes that is true. But car manufacturing definitely needs to be added to that list too because these days Suzuki is going places and is a marque that has earned the respect it is receiving. So when it claims its latest Vitara is the company’s most technically advanced model to date, rivals do sit up and pay attention.

The latest generation of the Vitara was launched quite recently in 2015, but it has now undergone a major makeover that introduces fresh new styling, improved safety features, more efficient engines and a far more upmarket interior design.

The Vitara has always been very easy on the eye, but revisions to the new car see a new front grille and bumper, restyled LED lights to complement the stylish upright design, a chrome lower grille, roof rails, privacy glass, wheel arch extensions and 17-inch alloys. It would be fair to say modern-day Vitara looks quite grown up.

We tested the mid-range SZ-T model powered by an efficient, yet punchy three-cylinder 1.0-litre Boosterjet petrol engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Priced at £20,799 (£21,599 with options), our Vitara could reach from 0-62mph in 12.0 seconds, maxed out at 111mph and, according to WLTP figures, delivered combined fuel economy of 39.4mpg with carbon emissions of 162g/km. We covered almost 400 miles during our week-long test on a variety of roads and we were seeing an average of 42.5mpg, which is above the official rating.

The Vitara is kitted out with all the latest techno treats to make life on the move all the easier with creature comforts including a smartphone link that offers a mirror image of your mobile phone, a navigation system, Bluetooth connectivity, steering wheel audio controls, a four-speaker sound system, DAB radio, automatic air conditioning, a rear parking camera and plenty more besides.

With active families in mind, the Vitara offers five-door practicality. The upright cabin is bright and spacious with ample room for a couple of adults in the back – add a third and it gets a bit too cosy. Storage options also impress with a boot capacity ranging from 375 to 710 litres with the 60:40 split-folding rear seats dropped flat. A double boot floor is convenient if you want to separate items such as muddy boots, and there is also a glovebox, door bins, front cup holders, a central console box and a pocket in the back of the front passenger seat.

Suzuki designers listened to customer feedback and, as a result, the interior of the new Vitara is more upmarket with plenty of soft-touch surfaces along with more comfortable seating. And when it comes to handling, the Vitara is a great performer with ample zip from the three-pot engine.

The driver is treated to excellent all-round visibility thanks to the elevated driving position and all the dials, controls and instrumentation are well positioned and easy to use on the move.

Out on the open road the Vitara was great fun and could be pushed along with confidence into long sweeping bends with minimal signs of body sway unless driven with a really heavy right boot. I clocked up more than 200 miles on motorways where the Vitara could easily reach and maintain the national speed limit cruising effortlessly at 70mph. Then in busy city centres, it proved agile in its handling and the rearview camera is a bonus when reversing into a tight parking space.

Our car also featured Suzuki’s rather clever Four-mode ALLGRIP system to keep you moving no matter what Mother Nature throws your way. In auto mode, fuel efficiency is prioritised with the car using two-wheel drive. Sport mode is great for fast country lanes with lots of twists and turns with the system making the maximum use of four-wheel drive delivering optimal torque. Snow mode is fairly self-explanatory and introduces four-wheel drive by default. And finally, the lock mode is for getting out of trouble and can be used to get the car out of mud, snow or sand whereby the slip differential helps to brake any slipping wheel and transfer the torque to those with grip.

The 2015 Vitara was awarded the maximum five stars when it was tested for its Euro NCAP safety rating, and since then Suzuki has introduced addition safety kit making it an excellent choice for any active family who want to be seen in a stylish vehicle without breaking the bank.

Suzuki Vitara (2019) – first drive

Suzuki is definitely a brand that’s going places. It boasts an impressive line-up of cars from the compact Swift and practical S-Cross to the charismatic Jimny and it has now launched a new-look Vitara that the company claims is its most technically advanced car ever.

The latest five-door Vitara entered the motoring scene in 2015 and it has just undergone a comprehensive facelift. There is extra safety kit, new powertrains, styling upgrades and a much more upmarket interior.

In truth, the Vitara was always a good-looking car with its upright yet athletic design, wheel arch extensions, chrome lower grille, roof rails and rear privacy glass. Now the designers have added extra appeal with the introduction of a new front grille and bumper plus restyled LED lights.

Buyers can select from three well-equipped trim grades called SZ4, SZ-T and SZ5 with prices ranging from £16,999 to £25,649. Suzuki has ditched the diesel engine and there is now Boosterjet technology for the 1.0-litre and 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol engines. Other choices include manual or automatic gearboxes along with two or four-wheel drive.

The Vitara is well-equipped as standard and, depending on the trim level, you can expect to see the likes of Smartphone link to connect a smartphone via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, a navigation system, Bluetooth, a good audio set-up with DAB digital radio, a colour touchscreen, a USB socket and lots more besides. In addition, Suzuki has listened to customer feedback and the new model now has a front armrest along with some soft-touch surfaces and improved seating.

We tested the Vitara in mid-range SZ-T trim level powered by a punchy three-cylinder, 1.0-litre Boosterjet engine mated to a five-speed transmission. The car carried a £20,799 price-tag and the only optional extra was specialist paint costing £800.

Suzuki engineers claim the 1.0-litre engine that has previously featured in the Suzuki Baleno, Swift and S-Cross, offers the same level of power and torque as a much larger capacity normally-aspirated 1.7 to 1.8-litre engine.

And that’s a very fair assessment – our car simply fizzed along. It sprints to 62mph in 12.0 seconds, but feels faster and then maxes out at 111mph. It’s a car that’s as content on motorways as it is whizzing through the country lanes and there is a constant stream of power on tap, so overtaking slower-moving farm traffic is a breeze. According to official figures, it can deliver combined fuel economy of 39.4mpg with carbon emissions of 162g/km (WLTP).

The road holding is impressive with minimal body movement even when pushed enthusiastically into corners and the cabin is well insulated against any wind, road surface or engine noise. I was really impressed with how quiet the three-pot engine was – even when driven hard it remained relatively hushed. My only slight gripe was the lack of a sixth gear.

With our unpredictable weather patterns, the option of all-wheel drive is always worth exploring. Our car featured Suzuki’s Allgrip 4WD system which will keep you on course when driving in poorer weather conditions or on more challenging terrain. It has four modes called Auto, Sport, Snow and Lock. Auto maximises fuel efficiency and uses two-wheel drive as a default, Sport is great for twisty roads, Snow delivers extra grip in the snow or when travelling on other slippery surfaces and finally Lock is used for extricating the car from snow, mud or sand.

An SUV needs to be a practical option for all the family’s needs and the Vitara scores well in that department. Passenger comfort levels are good with ample space in the back for a couple of adults – three if they don’t mind rubbing shoulders. The boot has a 375-litre capacity which can be increased to 710 litres with the 60:40 split-folding rear seats dropped flat and there is a handy adjustable boot floor to separate items such as wet gear or muddy boots.

And obviously safety is paramount on any family car. So it’s reassuring to know the Vitara scored a maximum five stars when it was tested for its Euro NCAP safety rating. This was achieved in 2015 and even more safety kit has been added to the 2019 car. Features include a dual sensor brake support system that works between 3mph and 62mph. If it detects a possible collision with a person or vehicle ahead it delivers a visual and audio warning. If the warnings are ignored it will start braking the vehicle. Other safety systems include blind spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning and lane keep assist, rear cross traffic alert and traffic sign recognition.

All in all, the latest Vitara is proof that Suzuki is not sitting back and resting on its laurels. After all, the Vitara was already a good car, but they were not satisfied with that – now it’s a great car.

Suzuki Vitara 1.4 Boosterjet S

Earlier this year a firm favourite made a very welcome return to the showrooms and now just seven months after Suzuki relaunched its popular Vitara model, we are getting a new addition to the line-up.

Priced at £20,899, the Vitara S is the joint range-topper alongside the SZ5 but most importantly, it features the all-new 1.4 turbocharged petrol engine which is the first application of Suzuki’s Boosterjet technology, which in this case translates into 140PS of grunt.

The car also comes with ALLGRIP intelligent four-wheel-drive as standard which is a ‘must’ in the world of crossover vehicles these days. Admittedly, few owners will ever venture far from the Tarmac but it’s most reassuring to be driving a car that will maintain its grip in wet and wintry conditions.

The S model also has some stand-out design cues, such as gloss black 17-inch alloys, a vertical grille design, an upper rear spoiler, satin silver door mirrors, red interior stitching and stylish red trims around the air vents.

The interior is clutter-free yet richly equipped with all controls, dials and instrumentation ideally placed for ease of use. On-board techno treats include a very efficient sat nav system that can be programmed with just a postcode if necessary, a good sound system with DAB digital radio, Bluetooth connectivity, air conditioning, a clear touchscreen and plenty more besides.

Comfort levels are high with ample space for two adults in the back – three at a slight squeeze. The boot is also generously-sized with a capacity of 375 litres which can be increased to 710 litres with the rear seats dropped flat. Elsewhere there is a good-sized glovebox, deep door pockets, a central bin and some handy trays to stop bits and pieces rolling around.

Thanks to its upright design, the driver benefits from a slightly elevated position which results in good all-round visibility and the Vitara S is very agile and easy to manoeuvre which makes it ideal for driving and parking in busy town centres.

Then out on faster country lanes and motorways, the car can easily hold its own with a 0-62 sprint time of 10.2 seconds and top speed of 124mph. The acceleration through the six-speed manual gearbox proved smooth and nicely responsive with minimal road and engine noise even when pushed quite hard.

The steering was nice and precise, the road-holding excellent and the efficient suspension even ironed out some of the unexpected bumps and dips along the way. I did find that after a long 100-mile-plus journey I was finding the seats a tad firm, but that was my only slight gripe during my week-long test drive.

Safety features are comprehensive with the likes of anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, electronic stability programme, foot protecting brake and clutch pedals, a tyre pressure monitor, seven airbags, plus the ALLGRIP 4-wheel-drive system to keep you motoring during those colder months.

By introducing this latest engine, Suzuki has guaranteed that extra turn of pace that was needed in its crossover model. Add in the impressive combined fuel economy of 52.3mpg and carbon emissions of 127g/km and the Vitara S becomes a very attractive all-round buy.

Suzuki Vitara – first drive

Crossover cars are all the rage these days with buyers demanding vehicles that can cope with all the challenging eventualities of day-to-day life but providing style, technology and good economy along the way.

And thankfully a past master has just unveiled a car that meets those tough criteria and some.

The name Vitara may not be new to motoring enthusiasts having first entered the 4×4 scene more than 27 years ago, but the latest fourth generation model is a breath of fresh air in the fiercely competitive segment.

The five-door model is available with a choice of engines, trims, transmissions and drivetrains.

It is competitively priced and can deliver fuel efficiency of up to 70.6mpg which is mighty impressive for a car with 4×4 capabilities.

The entry-level two-wheel-drive SZ4 model is powered by a 1.6-litre 118bhp petrol engine and costs £13,999. It comes complete with a DAB radio, CD player, USB connection, Bluetooth, automatic air conditioning, cruise control, alloy wheels and lots more besides.

Move up to SZ-T grade for an extra £1,500 and you will see the likes of sat nav and rear privacy glass added. Then for an additional £4,000 you can reach the range-topping SZ5 trim complete with part-leather upholstery, a double sunroof, keyless entry, LED headlights, adaptive cruise control, shiny alloys plus forward facing radar that detects when you are getting too close to the vehicle ahead and starts braking for you.

And there is a diesel option powered by a 1.6-litre 118bhp engine at a £1,500 premium. The off-roading capabilities are courtesy of Suzuki’s ALLGRIP 4×4 system which is an £1,800 option on range-topping SZ5 grades.

This feature offers four driving modes – auto, sport, snow and lock – and operates in fuel-saving 2WD much of the time unless extra traction is needed to the rear wheels or when the car has been specifically set up to deal with particularly challenging conditions.

And in keeping with fashion trends, the Vitara can be personalised with a range of colour options and extra body kit such as colour-coded grilles, skid plates and side mouldings.

But bells and whistles aside, it’s reassuring that the Vitara still remains true to its roots with distinctive styling traits such as the clamshell bonnet, vents on the side wings and a trapezoid motif front bumper.

The roofline slopes towards the rear very Evoque-esque and this once again accentuates the Vitara’s solid, sporty and ready-for-action stance.

We tested the 1.6 diesel model with six-speed manual transmission in top-of-the-range SZ5 trim with ALLGRIP priced at £21,299 (plus £800 for metallic paint).

This car can reach 62mph from a standing start in 12.4 seconds and tops out at 112mph. According to official figures it can deliver 67.2mpg on a combined run with carbon emissions of 106g/km.

The Vitara is exceptionally spacious with ample room for a couple of adults in the back and they benefit from good leg, head and shoulder space. Storage limits are generous too with a boot capacity of 375 litres which can be increased to 710 litres with the rear seats folded flat.

Up front all the dials, controls and instrumentation is ideally positioned for ease of use and there is a thoroughly modern feel to the car with top-notch techno treats to be explored.

There is rather a lot of sturdy-looking plastic and I did find there was a little glare from the touchscreen if the sun was particularly bright, but that aside all the car’s systems were very user-friendly.

Out on the twisting country lanes the Vitara was a dream to drive as it accelerated smoothly through the gears and the high-seated position means the driver benefits from great all-round visibility, which is a plus-factor for a vehicle that will regularly be spotted on the school run.

Then out on faster motorways the 1.6-litre engine delivered plenty of bite and there was a constant supply of power on tap as and when needed. The ride felt well-grounded with engine and wind noise only really noticeable when the vehicle was pushed particularly hard.

We also put the five-speed petrol equivalent through its paces on a quarry-based assault course where it coped well when climbing banks, descending rocky slopes and traversing hills.

Admittedly the Vitara is not a vehicle that would be expected to tackle truly rugged terrain, but it will keep you fully mobile when unexpected cold snaps and winter snow flurries kick in.

And the car has just been awarded the maximum five stars in the Euro NCAP safety ratings with the likes of seven airbags as standard, along with adaptive cruise control, electronic stability control, an impact absorbing body, Radar Brake Support and plenty more depending on which model is selected.

Suzuki is currently celebrating top 10 status in the global car sales charts and has clearly identified the growing crossover market as an area to invest in. That’s why the company now has an all-new Vitara model to line up alongside its highly popular S-Cross to attract new buyers to the brand.
