I visited the newly launched Suzuki Showroom in Pasong Tamo extention this morning and finally saw the all new Grand Vitara on display.
Exterior Design
It really resembles the current RAV4! The all new grand vitara looks really good tempting. The large tail lights is a mix of RAV-4 and Prado. Front styling is agressive. It has that silver-plated mesh grill and Lancer Evo7ish headlights. HID? no, the all new grand vitara doesnt have HID. All the while I thought they used the current Rav-4's rims. Looks small but they are actually 16''s.
Interior Design
The combination of silver and black colors greets you when you board. Like the Swift, it has a gate-type shift and it looks cool. Audio is integrated and comes with steer mounted audio controls for convinience. Aircon switches and 4wd system switch are easily reached by the driver. Front legroom is generous and comfortable. Rear legroom is adequate but knee room is quite tight. The all-new Grand Vitara's seats are wrapped with black fabric and optitron meters are standard. The luggage compartment is adequate but if you really want a big space, the rear seats can be folded and tumbled forward.
Price
The all-new grand vitara is priced at 1.180M for the manual and 1.250M for the automatic and it is offered only in 4x4. SUV buyers will get the standard 2.0 DOHC 16-valve MPi which has 145hp*6000rpm, gate type automatic transmission, power windows, power doorlocks, power side mirrors, twin airbags, ABS, EBD, BRAKE Assist, integrated audio with steer mounted controls and four speakers, key-less entry, optitron meters, and outside temperature with fuel consumption meter. Yes, it is more expensive than the Sorento diesel and 20 grand more than the 2.0 4WD X-Trail but less expensive than the CR-V 4x4 and RAV-4.
The all-new Grand Vitara looks promising. Attractive styling is a winner. I want to drive one.

Nice! Very very nice! Wala bang 2.7 o V6? As it is, I'd buy one if I were in the market...
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...
