It's natural to wonder if Suzuki knows what it's doing with its SUVs. The past is filled with entries like the Sidekick, the 80-horsepower thing that looked like a golf kart and didn't go much faster. Then there was the X-90, the world's first subcompact sport-economy utility off-road convertible, and finally every lawyer's favorite, the Samurai, which spent as much time driving on its roof as on its wheels. I think Suzuki always knew what it was doing. Whether anyone cared is another question.1999 brought a less off-center entry named Vitara / Grand Vitara. While a better all-arounder, it was still riddled with two marginal engines and an outdated interior, and ever since Suzuki shoved seven seats down its throat, it's been choking.Seven years later we now have the second Grand Vitara, a much more focused effort that's more in touch with reality. There's no more cheapo regular Vitara, no more silly 4-cylinder engine, no more live rear axle, and no more rebadging as a Geo or Chevy. In lieu, we get way better styling, a V6, a new suspension, no less than three different drivetrains, and even an original, hybrid-like approach to body construction.The SUV market's smallest player is making noise again, and this time you might want to listen.
