Suzuki has revised its Grand Vitara range with some styling changes and a lower emission diesel engine spelling cheaper company car tax bills.

The 1.9-litre DDiS diesel is now only offered in five-door format and CO2 emissions drop from 185 to 179g/km, resulting in a drop of two benefit-in-kind tax bands (from 29 to 27%). Fuel economy improves from 37 to 41mpg.

On the styling front, the trademark spare wheel which used to be housed in a casing on the rear door has now been removed. Instead of a spare wheel, the Vitara will come with a can of tyre repair sealant and inflator.

Prices start at £14,900, with the cheapest diesel costing £19,375.
