Other Choices

More Info

Why should I also consider these? X

For the price of a similarly equipped four-cylinder compact SUV, the Grand Vitara offers a V-6.

But the Jeep Liberty is a the better choice for demanding off-roading or towing, while the RAV4, with its especially useful third-row seat, is a top pick for those who plan to stay mostly on-road.

The Liberty's interior is quite cramped, though.

The Sportage, RAV4, and Escape all benefit from carlike handling to bring more security to curvy roads, but none of these models are very proficient in towing.

Then there's the Grand Vitara's cumbersome spare tire on the back hatch, which handicaps cargo loading (and visibility, slightly); the RAV4 also follows this silly arrangement.

Value for money is a real selling point for the 2009 Suzuki Grand Vitara.
