2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
2006 marked a major makeover for the Suzuki Grand Vitara SUV. Suzuki basically redid the interior, adding better materials, and went to a car-like frame over its earlier truck-based frame. The Grand Vitara comes in a grand total of 8 trims.
All trims use a 2.7 L, 185 hp V6 engine. Gas mileage comes out to around 18 mpg in the city and 23 on the highway. Each trim also has 4 doors, seats 5, and gives you around 70 cubic feet of cargo space. Towing capacity maxes out at around 3000 lbs.
Overall, drivers will tell you that the Grand Vitara took a giant step forward in 2006 in closing the copmetition gap. However, it will take another giant leap or two before the Grand Vitara can call itself a legit contender in the SUV market. Until then, the Grand Vitara will continue to serve as a decent option for the budget-conscious.

I like the suv but overall I have noticed more and more defects in parts that are too new to break down. All of the parts have become expensive and some hard to find. I personally have seen better value in other brands.Feb 25, 2014

I love my car's appearance mainly due to its headlights because I'm the kind of girl who is really into the cat eye kind of look with headlights. My car's performance is in really good shape; it has a V6 engine with very good handling and the brakes work extremely well. The build quality of my car is pretty excellent except for the air conditioning. Upon starting my car, the air conditioning starts off with a temporary odd smell that isn't exactly enjoyable. The cost of ownership isn't really to bad except for gas but that's only due to gas prices today. You just gotta be smart about how much you drive and where you drive to and all that jazz. As for the fun factor, my car is fun to drive and yes I would recommend my car to a friend.Jul 05, 2008

It was supposed to be mine but it was red and girly. It has great handling, but doesnt have much base horsepower. Its more offroad than most suvs of its class. 4-mode full time 4wd system. Its loaded with amazing features you would find in more expensive luxury cars. The only diffrence from stock and luxury models is the leather seats, sunroof, wheelcover, and privacy glass, everything else is standard. Fully loaded cost us $25,000 and base is at around $20,000.Dec 23, 2007

My 2006 Suzuki Grand Vitara engine light has came on, the cruise control will not come on and the heater/AC blower motor has quit working. Is the lower motor and criuse control switch on the same electrical circuit? What needs to be replaced to fix these issues. They seem to be related due to they all quit working at the same time. Please help!

2006 Suzuki GV Heating problem when idling.
My 2006 GV blows cold air when idling, no matter how long it's been running, as soon as you rev it up or drive it you get heat. I want constant heat in our cold winters. Any suggestions ?
