2019 Suzuki Vitara SUV Unveiled: Japanese automaker Suzuki had been working on the mid-life update of the Vitara SUV for quite some time now. This is not the compact SUV Vitara Brezza that comes to India, but the larger sibling that is a part of the international lineup of the company. The Vitara is a 4.2 meter SUV that has a great exterior, which makes it instantly recognizable. It combines the traditional image of the Suzuki SUV and the modern technology and accents. There are some major upgrades made to the exterior and the interior on the 2019 model of the Suzuki Vitara.

There is a new lower air-intake, and an included radar sensor, which is used when the autonomous emergency braking and the adaptive cruise control are in effect. There are faux brushed-aluminium bits on the front bumper near the daytime running lights. Also new are the alloy wheels, which feature an all-new design. The interior is expected to get some upgrades as well. The 2019 Suzuki Vitara is expected to come with a new seat upholstery and an updated infotainment system. Article imageThe Vitara's current generation was spied in India some time ago. The SUV was equipped with a 1.6-liter diesel engine that produces a maximum power of 118 hp. The SUV which was spied comes with a six-speed manual gearbox. While there is no confirmation on the launch of the Vitara SUV in India, if it is launched, it will provide a healthy competition to the Hyundai Creta, which is dominating the market in the segment. The previous generation of the Vitara was launched in India under the name of Grand Vitara, but the high price of the SUV along with the market position served as factors of its limited success.
