Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

The Vitara Allgrip with the 1.4T Boosterjet engine, is an exceedingly capable, sturdy and reliable car. I had never owned a Suzuki before this, but this cars capabilities, coupled with it's reliability and the way it drives, put many other similar vehicles to shame. The driving position is excellent and the car is very comfy. It handles well for a vehicle of this type and the performance from the 1.4T engine is sprightly, yet economical. (The engine is lifted straight from Suzuki's sporty Swift hatchback). If people want to pay fortunes for these leather trimmed AWD vehicles, they are missing out on a car which deals exceptionally well with whatever the winter can through at it. The 4wd system works exactly as it should, plus you can lock the differentials if the going gets really tough, whereas other AWD cars don't have this feature. If you are looking for a very capable, reliable and proper 4wd family car to head off into the great outdoors, don't overlook this little gem of a car. Oh, and the dealer I dealt with was fantastic, nothing too much bother with none of the 'looking down their nose' snobbery, unlike a number of so called premium brands.
