Love after 9 years
They just don't make them like this anymore, so sad 😣. I love this SUV. 9 years, no major problems, still runs excellent 😎

very reliable car
Bought this car new August of 2008. We still have it as of December 2019. My wife drove it for 9 years and 11 months then we bought her a new car. When we got her new car we move the Suzuki to our back up car. At that time of being a back up it had 298 k on it. As of December 2019 it now has almost 304 k on it. It has been a very reliable car with only a starter and throttle body being put on it besides general maintenance. Everything else is the ordinal parts. I do wonder if anyone else has one with close to our miles

Love My Car
I never imagined loving my car this much! I absolutely LOVE my car. I would never have purchased a Grand Vitara if my sister didn't work for Suzuki. I was able to get a great deal on the car! I highly recommend this car to anyone looking for a small SUV. It drives great & is extremely comfortable. The features are endless. I am 25 and live in O.C. & anyone who drives my car says the same thing. All my friends want one & the VP of my company said he was definitely going to look into Suzuki SUV's when they purchase their next car. I had never even driven a Suzuki until the day I got mine. I got it becasue of the deal & never imagined loving it this much.
A beast in the snow!
I love my GV! Great ground clearance and great turning radius! I have put this GV through many of the same demanding trails/mud/snow that I did when I previously owned a wrangler. This little 4x4 is more capable than most will need it for. Even the cargo space with the seats tumbled forward in back is great, I got a king size lazy boy recliner in there (with the back of the chair off and laying on top of the seat) without it even being tight. The proximity key is great for winter with not having to remove your gloves to get your keys, just keep it in your pocket. I had to custom fit roof racks for my GV as I couldn't find any that fit, a sawsall helped shorten the width on some other ones I found online and now fit great. Overall I would recommend this little suv, it has been problem free and a joy to drive.

Love it
We traded my wife's Murano for the GV, she wanted something smaller. We spent 3 months researching every small SUV on the market. Test drive and features sold us. This is a great suv and a great value. Handeling is marvelous, and the ride is solid. Could use a tad more power. Smart key took some getting used to, but love it now. Everything about this little truck rocks. I want to drive it, and leave my Lincoln in the garage!
