The Suzuki Vitara is a rugged-looking family SUV that drives well and has plenty of storage space, but it’s let down by a cheap-feeling interior

Pros
Surprisingly fun to drive
Decent rear passenger space
Well equipped

Cons
Cheap interior materials
Noisy at speed
Top-spec models too expensive

By: 
carwow.co.uk

Pros
Engine torque
Quiet and refined at speed
Great spec and value

Cons
No spare wheel

By: 
drive.co.uk

The Suzuki Jimny is a brilliant, head-turning little car with quirky looks and awesome off-road ability, but it’s terrible on-road and many alternatives would be more comfortable and practical.

Pros
Cool looks
Unstoppable off-road
Well equipped

Cons
Poor on-road
Cheap, dull interior
Not comfortable
