Range-topping Vitara Turbo now in Umhlanga

Range-topping Vitara Turbo now in Umhlanga

Date: 2019-10-11

Suzuki has (literally) boosted its very popular Vitara range with the launch of a range-topping Vitara Turbo in both manual and automatic.

At the heart of the exciting new model is Suzuki's 1.4 litre BOOSTERJET engine, which lands at the same time, as the new Suzuki Swift Sport.

In the Vitara, the BOOSTERJET engine delivers 103 kW at 5 500 rpm and a healthy 220 Nm in a completely linear way from 1 500 to 4 000 rpm. By comparison, the Vitara 1.6 litre GLX delivers 86 kW at 6 000 rpm and 156 Nm at a peak of 4 400 rpm.

Power is delivered to the front wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic gearbox, with the latter offering manual shifting via steering-mounted paddles.

The Vitara range boasts an impressive heritage of over 30 years, from the introduction of the first generation in 1988.

Suzuki's BOOSTERJET-engine technology combines a range of engineering advancements to offer an engine with a very strong and linear torque delivery and low fuel consumption. Indeed, the engine delivers 220 Nm for a full 2 500 revolutions without wavering and its tested fuel consumption in a combined cycle is 5.8 litres for the manual model and 5.9 for the auto.
