Suzuki Vitara Cars

Made for Perfection: Suzuki Vitara

Suzuki Vitara is a compact SUV that is produced by Suzuki Motors for multiple markets around the world. It has been in continuous production since 1988, focusing on reliability and handling aspects. If you're looking for models such as a used Vitara JX or Suzuki Vitara JLX, browsing the eBay listings can help you find a reliable Suzuki Vitara for sale.

There are four distinct generations of Suzuki Vitara for sale. The following details will help you distinguish between the generations:

• First generation - Produced for nearly 10 years, the original Suzuki Vitara model was launched in three body styles that include the three-door SUV, five-door SUV, and two-door convertible. Both manual and automatic transmissions were available. In the UK, some modified original models are listed as Suzuki Vitara Fatboy for sale. You may also find a limited-edition pink Suzuki Vitara Rossini for sale.
• Second generation - Launched in 1998, the second generation was slightly larger and more powerful than its predecessor. It also used a different mechanism for the steering box to offer greater handling ability. One example of this generation is a Suzuki Vitara JLX convertible for sale in the UK.
• Third generation - These models, which were mechanically different from the first- or second-generation Vitaras, were produced in 2005. Significant changes were introduced in the body frame, engine, and transmission. At this time, the two-door convertible was discontinued.
• Fourth generation - Vehicles of this generation have been produced separately without the maker discontinuing the third generation. Launched in 2015, the fourth-generation Vitara is shorter, leaner, and lower than the third-generation type, making it easier to drive and park on narrow roads.

After the first generation, subsequent generations either produced an upgraded model or included a face-lift. Grand Escudo is a prime example of an upgraded version in the second generation that found its way into the European markets. It is slightly longer and more powerful than other SUVs of its generation. Similarly, the same model acquired a face-lift in 2012 that included new wheels, a new grille, and front lights. In 2019, the fourth-generation Suzuki Vitara also got a facelift with the addition of wave radar, multi-information display, and additional safety features.

Unique in Suzuki Vitara history, the twin-engine Vitara Escudo is easily distinguishable by the huge whale tail at its rear end. These specially designed vehicles were made for hill climbing and rough terrain. Known for winning multiple hill-climbing championships, this SUV can produce an output of nearly 1,000 HP with a single twin-turbocharged 2.5-litre V6 engine. It has four-wheel drive and may resemble a car instead of the typical SUV, depending on the model. It is considered a prized commodity among collectors of classic cars, so consider yourself lucky if you can own one of these powerful beasts.
