it looks TERRIBLE….. why do all electric cars look like garbage.. like was designed n half finished by a 5yo using leggo.
Suzuki has a great looking CURRENT Vitara, yet they decide to put this monstrosity of a bodywork on the electric motor system.
makes no sense. all brands new electric cars look like a cheap polyester suit – embarrassing…
Looks magnificent 🎉
티볼리!!!
I used to love these suv .wish would bring BACK TO CANADA ..😅😅
In Australia we call “artificial leather” vinyl. There’s nothing leather about it.
you talk too much you forgot about the most important… RANGE!!!!!!
RANGE?????
I do wish Japanese OEMs would get over piano black interiors !! Certainly looks interesting inside for a Suzuki, bonus points for the multi coloured fabric though,👍
I feel I've aged overnight by simply looking at this car.
The different spec by state seems a bit odd. This confused car has confused me.
Is this the one made in India and is also a Toyota?
I'll take an Ignis and with the 20 grand left over pay it off immediately.
