Pros: What do you like about 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara?
GOOD LOOKING DESIGN. IT RESEMBLES SECOND GENERATION TOYOTA RAV 4. REMEMBER THAT SUZUKI TRIES TO COPY TOYOTA AND HONDA DESIGN. 4 STARS
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara?
ENTRANCE SPAN IS LIMITED. I AM 6'2" AND CONSTANTLY I AM HITTING PILLAR B WITH MY BACK. GASKET IS BADLY WORN. THIS SUV IS BUILT FOR PEOPLE UNDER 5'6"!!!
ALSO, ITS INTERIOR PLASTICS SCRATCH EASILY. BEWARE OF FUEL PUMP PROBLEMS. (CABLES ARE EXPOSED TO RODENTS)
FUSE BOX IS NON FRIENDLY. YOU HAVE TO CONTOUR YOUR BODY TO REACH IT UNDER DASH.
CUSHION IS LIMITED. NOT A COMFORTABLE 2 HOURS TRAVELING CAR.
2 STARS

2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara Review:
I replaced by Ford Explorer with the '06 Grand Vitara. It had 18K miles and I had to replace tires at 20K because they wore wrong must be an alignment issue. Seats are uncomfortable and adjusting steering wheel impossible. Gas mileage very good at 25 MPH versus 17-18 on the Explorer. Couldn't wait for snow and ice to try out the automatic 4x4 feature. This thing sucks on patches of ice or snow, shaking from side to side until it kicks in, then still iffy going down the road. Almost was pulled into oncoming traffic because of it. Took to dealer and they said I didn't know how to drive. Ya, right. Handles good after you floor it so the 4x4 kicks in but can't do that on ice. Handled good in pure snow. I'm getting rid of it as soon as I can.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara?
I like my vitari it's just the right size and has plenty of room for what I wanted. The only complaint that I have is with 25,000 miles on it it now needs new tires. I had my tires rotated every time I had my oil changed and noticed that my tires were wearing uneven. I took it for an anlignment and they said that they never seen a new car so far out of alignment. It must have come out of the show room like that. Now I have to buy new tires already.
Cons: How would you improve 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara?
Better gas mileage

2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara Review:
This is the worst SUV on the market today,after 100,000 miles its needs to have the engine completly rebuilt. This is the poorest excuse of a automobile ever built.

Rear window that opens, Remove swing gate & put tire somewhere else. Improve Gas Mileage !!! 18 MPG is about par.
2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara Review:
For a first year of a fully madeover vehicle, very nice. However- some of the shortcuts they took were goofy.It really should have rear glass that opens.An auxillary input jack (MP3/IPod) should have been included.(esp since there is a button for it on the radio!!! worthless fuel economy meter-(instant) Overall an excellent value- Should give Honda & Toyota some stiff competition.
