All 4 Suzuki Vitara Generations
Each generation deals in its rarity tier’s alloy with its engine disc, lead specs, and first spotter record. Click into any generation for full trims and market figures.
This Vitara abandoned decades of off-roader DNA in one generation: it swapped its ladder-frame, longitudinal-drive layout for a unibody, transverse-engine crossover platform.
The fourth-gen Vitara abandoned nearly three decades of truck-based design in one stroke — swapping its body-on-frame layout for a lightweight unibody shared with the SX4 S-Cross.
By its final US model year, this Grand Vitara had nearly vanished from showrooms — just 4,860 found American buyers in 2004, even though sales stayed strong across the border in Canada.
The original Vitara was such a hit in Italy it exploited a loophole letting off-roaders dodge import quotas — until Italy rewrote the rules within a year, requiring a differential lock the Vitara didn't have.
