The below table gives an over view of how the self charing Vitara Full Hybrid works in multiple everyday scenarios. It's intelligent system automatically switches between the most efficient modes allowing you to go further, for less.
Stop | All units stop to prevent wasted energy consumption. |
Start | The electric motor quietly and smoothly starts off the vehicle. The engine gently restarts via ISG starter motor function if the accelerator pedal is pressed beyond a certain extent. |
Acceleration | The MGU instantly assists the engine for smooth and powerful acceleration. While the clutch is disengaged during gear shifts, the MGU fills in the torque gap to provide smooth, continuous acceleration. The MGU adds torque to engine torque when the accelerator pedal is pressed strongly, such as when going up steep hills or merging onto a motorway. |
Normal Driving | When driving at a constant speed of up to around 80 km/h, the engine automatically stops and EV driving activates. When driving at a constant speed, the MGU utilises engine power to efficiently generate electricity and recharge the drive battery while also driving the vehicle. |
Deceleration | The MGU generates electricity from kinetic energy to charge the lithium-ion battery. If the accelerator pedal is released at less than approx 135 km/h, the engine automatically stops to efficiently generate electricity. |
Low Speeds & Reversing | When cruising at a constant low speed and reversing, the engine stops and the vehicle is driven by the MGU (EV driving). |
Our Vitara range is available with either Mild or Full Hybrid technology. Our Mild Hybrid system provides battery assistance, meaning a small electric motor supports the petrol engine when it needs it most, such as during acceleration or going up a hill. The Full Hybrid powertrain provides dual power, switching between the petrol engine and electric motor or using a combination of both to drive the wheels. Whatever your choice, you'll get better fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions.
The powerful, highly
efficient motor on the Vitara Full Hybrid generates a
maximum output of 24kW
and up to 60Nm of torque
despite its compact size.
It can smoothly start off and accelerate the vehicle, as well as run the vehicle alone (EV driving with inactive engine) while creeping, cruising and driving in reverse for quiet operation and minimal fuel consumption.
We want the Vitara to be able to take you wherever you want to go. That’s why we’ve developed our unique ALLGRIP 4-wheel Drive system*. With ALLGRIP, you can truly take control of the road, with the 4-wheel Drive system adapting to varied conditions such as rain, snow or rough terrain. So the only limitation you have when you’re driving the Vitara is your own imagination.
AUTO MODE
This prioritises front-wheel drive for optimum fuel efficiency in everyday conditions, switching to 4WD if wheelspin is detected.
SPORT MODE
Actively engages 4WD, based on accelerator inputs, to make driving more responsive along country lanes.
SNOW MODE
Your answer to snow, ice, rain and mud – giving crucial traction and stability when the conditions demand it.
LOCK MODE
This engages permanent 4WD to help you drive out of deep snow or mud.
*Compared to the previous equivalent petrol Vitara without Hybrid and using the official WLTP combined fuel consumption and CO2 emissions figures.
Main Safety Features Include:
SUZUKI SAFETY SUPPORT, DUAL SENSOR BRAKE SUPPORT, BLIND SPOT MONITOR, LANE DEPARTURE WARNING, REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT*, LANE DEPARTURE PREVENTION, WEAVING ALERT & TRAFFIC SIGN RECOGNITION

The Suzuki Vitara Hybrid is ULEZ ready.
To help improve air quality, an Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, every day of the year, except Christmas Day (25 December), within the same area of central London as the Congestion Charge.
As of 25 October 2021, the ULEZ is expanding from central London to create a single, larger zone up to, but not including, the North Circular Road (A406) and South Circular Road (A205).
