Suzuki Grand Vitara Gas Mileage

The 2009 Suzuki Grand Vitara is available with a 2.4-liter inline four cylinder or a 3.2-liter V6 engine, in both rear-wheel-drive (RWD) and four-wheel-drive (4WD) trim.

While on the road, the Grand Vitara’s gas mileage is merely par for the class; off the beaten path, the little truck shines. This is not a poseur’s SUV. With the Grand Vitara, gas mileage is secondary to competence off road. Folks in the know buy this one to get it dirty.

The four-banger produces 166 horsepower (HP) and 162 foot pounds of torque, with the V6 delivering 230 HP and 213 foot pounds. The entry-level base 2WD 2.4-liter is rated at 19 city / 26 highway miles per gallon (MPG) when fitted with the five-speed manual transmission, topping the Grand Vitara range with regard to gas mileage. The fully decked-out 4WD V6 in either Xsport or Luxury trim is the most thirsty, at 17 city / 23 highway, with the five-speed automatic.

A 1.9-liter DDiS diesel engine, producing 221 foot pounds of torque is available in the Grand Vitara overseas. The DDiS equipped Grand Vitara is rated at 30.4 urban / 42.8 extra-urban MPG in the UK, roughly the equivalent of 25 city / 35 highway here in the States.
