2018 Suzuki Vitara

When it arrived to a much less crowded market in 2015, the Vitara was an instant hit. How with rivals such as VWs T-Cross and Kias Stonic, the Vitara has some serious competition. In terms of practicality, it is very impressive with 375 litres of space in the boot which has a wide shape and opening as well as some clever hidden storage areas. There is decent head and leg room with large windows making it feel bright and airy inside. There is a myriad of safety features and while the cabin is basic it is still solid and durable. All models are generously equipped with 16-inch alloys, LED lights, air con, cruise control and Bluetooth connectivity as standard. The pokey 1.4 litre engine is probably the pick of the bunch while post-19 models can avail of a lovely three-cylinder boosterjet petrol engine. Fuss and hassle-free motoring at a reasonable price.
