2014 Suzuki Grand Vitara

I was kinda tempted to get this too. It was being offered to me for 960k. Cheapest non-China SUV you can find, with timeless looks.

But it's a 12 year old car, and it shows. No modern connectivity, inefficient use of space, anemic engine (despite the thirsty consumption), etc etc. In the end, if you just want a car that looks good, can handle any terrain, and costs less than a million bucks, this is a great car for you.

But since I have other priorities in a car, I passed on this one.

Hi sir jut 703. Sir base po yan sir sa mismong kasamahan po namin na nag purchase ng grand vitara. Before po kasi sir sinasabi talaga namin is 6- 9 km/l pero po kasi base naman po sa experience nya is 8-12 daw po talaga. So don din po ako nag rely. And don din po sa nag papa service sabi din po ganon din po fuel consumption. Good evening po pala mga boss.

Wow 960k is very cheap for a compact suv. Sir jut, may i know the model of this GV? Is this the special edition? Problem with suzuki is their after sales, parts and service. I dont know kung ok na ang mga dealer ng suzuki ngyon.

The one available now, with the 17" rims, yeah I think it's the Special Edition. 3 of my officemates got GVs. Ok naman daw except the FC.

Pag nagsimula na maging mainstream ang HRV and the likes, kahit gano ka-cheap, this will be gas guzzler, pero mura naman gasolina ngaun, yun nga lang hanggang kelan

The grand vitara now looks attractive given its price.
However, a facelift might be on its way. Hopefully, with better engine.

There's already an all new Vitara.

Looks like a bloated Evoque to me.

The new one looks very generic. Heck, all of the new models from different manufacturers looks the same imho.

Hmm.. considering the engine displacement and only 4 speed auto, this GV in my opinon is gas guzzler. Pero the price is very tempting hehe.. Any idea about the reliablity, parts and service? I think touch screen na ang stereo ng special edition.
