March 26th, 2009 05:38 PM #12You will expect a stiffer ride than CRV or RAV4 Because it is a real SUV but you will get used to it especially if you are used in driving pickup trucks. The new engine is a lot smoother, more quiet and powerful than the previous version. Road and wind noise was significantly improved.

March 29th, 2009 12:58 PM #13Even it's 2.0, 2.4 and 2.7 engine, the Grand Vitara is still classified as SUV because of its off-road capability. Hindi po ako familiar kung paano ang pag-categorize between AUV and SUV, pero siguro hindi lang naman engine ang basehan. Ang alam ko lang sa AUV it is like a big car (people transporter) similar to cross-over sa US, hindi kagaya ng (real) SUV na kayang umakyat ng bundok. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Aside from being more quiet, smooth/refined and powerful, the new 3.2L V6 engine was reported to be more fuel efficient than the 2.7L V6

AUV - Asian Utility Vehicle, refers to vehicles that can seat more than 5 persons (Utility) and usually available only in Asian countries since they do not meet US and Euro safety standards.

April 2nd, 2009 04:00 PM #17hi guys. i just resigned last friday as s.a. of suzuki makati. im now a freelance car broker for all brands. anyways. with regards to the 2.4 gvitara, you guys are right. there isnt much difference. same shape (the best among compact suvs) & size. the engine of course is a 2.4L but the good thing about it compared to the 2.0 is that its already a vvt just like the 2.7L plus its a rear wheel drive. interiorwise, correct with the beige color, just like with the 2.7 that has a beige interior available for black and white body colors. the multi info display center wc was used to be found at the center of the dash above the sound system is now located at the base of the optitron dials wc has an added feature. the previous info that u may get was outside temperature, digital clock and instantanous fuel comsumption, now you may also know how far your gas can get you (hehehe). the only thing i didnt like much about this gvit is its steering wheel. hindi leather. other than that i love everything bout it na. with regards to the 3.2L ive seen one sa plant. same size same shape, the features of the great 2.7L version are applied to the 3.2L v6 and the side mirrors have flashers(turn signal light) they say that it has GPS but that is still to be confirmed for im still requesting for the exact features and specs of the model. whats frustrating though is that it is only available thru indent order. reservation (non refundable) of 100k and a waiting period of about four months. if anyone is interested to dont hesitate to give me a txt or call * 0923-979-8596. ill find the best deals for you specially at financing all for free. hope this helped.
