2010 Suzuki Grand Vitara

Pros: Tremendous amount of standard features, great price, powerful rugged 4x4 system, tough body, lots of safety features, high quality, looks great, comfortable interior, smart design. highway MPG is decent and can be up to 26MPG.

Cons: gas mileage is as low as 17MPG in city driving

Summary: My first Suzuki ever was a 2006 Grand Vitara Premium, now I'm about to upgrade to a 2010 Grand Vitara XSport. The Grand Vitara provides luxury, ruggedness and safety all in one efficient compact package. I found the CNET review of the Grand Vitara to be a bit snobby and overly critical. I think CNET reviewer should take another look at this SUV and reconsider what this vehicle offers for the price. Owning a Grand Vitara for several years gave me an appreciation of just how much thought Suzuki put into this vehicle and the 4x4 works really well in deep snow. I give the Grand Vitara a high rating.
