Car Deal of the Day: Suzuki Vitara is a frugal family SUV for £177 a month
The Vitara is a worthy SUV competitor and at this price it's hard to ignore - making it our Deal of the Day for 9 May
- Efficient engine
- Lots of kit
- £177 a month
The Vitara has been around since the 1980s and it’s managed to keep up with the times by morphing from a rugged off-roader to a family-friendly SUV. What has always been a constant is the Vitara’s low price tag and on a good leasing deal the latest model is an undeniably appealing offer.
This deal we found on leaseloco.com allows you to get a Suzuki Vitara on your driveway for just £177 a month - which is usually what you’d expect to pay for a supermini, not a spacious SUV. A personal contract hire agreement, it’s a four-year term with a £2,130 initial payment. The mileage limit stands at 5,000 miles, but should you wish to extend this to 10,000 miles it’ll only cost you an extra £19 a month. It’s in stock too so waiting times will be kept to a minimum.
With hybrid technology (every Suzuki comes with hybrid as standard these days), the Vitara’s 1.4 Boosterjet petrol engine delivers 127bhp and 235Nm of torque for a respectable 9.5-second 0-62mph time. What it really excels at is fuel efficiency because despite it’s size, the Vitara can return 53.2mpg on the WLTP combined cycle.
The Vitara is a doddle to drive with light steering and a surprising amount of composure in the corners in spite of the lofty stance. A raised driving position really helps when navigating the Vitara around town, too. A 375-litre boot (increasing to 710 litres with the seats down) is pretty good and cabin space will be perfectly fine for tall adults front and rear.
There’s a decent level of equipment with a touchscreen featuring an in-built sat-nav system or if that’s not to your fancy, there’s Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. A rear-view camera, air-conditioning, adaptive cruise control, automatic rain-sensing wipers and automatic headlight levelling also feature.
