The 2005 version of Suzuki Vitara is the latest generation of this small SUV which is now built on the GM Theta platform in Japan.
Although the main model which comes with a 5-door body style is usually called Grand Vitara, the 3-door version is referred as Vitara due to its chassis which isn’t regarded as ”grand” compared to the main edition of the SUV. The new car is available with multiple transmission versions, including a 5-speed manual and two 4- and 5-speed automatic. Moreover, it is powered by multiple engines, ranging from 1.6 liter 16V to 2.7 liter V6 and 1.9 liter turbodiesel.
