Coup de frais
Déjà arrivé à la moitié de son cycle de vie, notre Vitara est passé par la traditionnelle case mise à jour en août dernier. Si d'aventure vous étiez passé à côté de cette information, permettez-nous de vous résumer ici tout ce qui a changé, et ce n'est pas rien.

Nouveau look, dedans et dehors
Quand vous irez le découvrir sur notre stand, vous constaterez d'abord que grâce à des modifications plutôt subtiles, et peut-être même difficiles à identifier, le Vitara a sérieusement gagné en allure.
Nouvelle calandre à fentes verticales, plus de chrome, nouveaux blocs optiques arrière à signature lumineuse LED, nouvelle protection de bas de pare-chocs arrière, nouvelles couleurs… Ce n'est pas grand-chose mais ne dit-on pas que les petits ruisseaux font les grandes rivières?
A l'intérieur aussi, le Vitara a été revalorisé. Là, cette impression passe par de nouveaux revêtements pour les sièges et le haut de la planche de bord, une déco de planche de bord texturée, un nouveau design des compteurs et de la pendulette, et un nouvel écran LCD couleur 4,2'' entre les compteurs. Comme nous le disions plus haut: petites touches, grands effets.
Plus sûr
En changeant de peau, le Vitara mis à jour a aussi adopté quelques aides à la conduite supplémentaires. Nous pouvons citer la surveillance d'angle mort, l'aide au maintien de voie à correction de cap active, la reconnaissance des panneaux de signalisation, la détection de trafic transversal arrière ou encore le cruise control adaptatif qui, si le Vitara est équipé d'une boîte auto et de la transmission intégrale AllGrip, dispose en plus de la fonction Stop&Go dans les embouteillages.
Dédieselisé
Petit évènement du côté mécanique, le Suzuki Vitara n'est désormais plus proposé en version diesel, ni en version essence atmosphérique. Le 1.4 BoosterJet qui était celui du Vitara S reste d'actualité, et il est maintenant accompagné de notre excellent bloc 3 cylindres essence turbo 1.0 BoosterJet 110 ch.
Côté transmission tout est possible, puisque les deux moteurs sont proposés avec boîte manuelle (5 rapports avec 1.0 BoosterJet, 6 rapports avec 1.4 BoosterJet) ou automatique (6 rapports dans tous les cas), en deux ou quatre roues motrices, et n'importe quelle combinaison est envisageable.
Enfin, comme nous vous le disions dans notre chapitre d'introduction, Suzuki propose une version CNG du moteur 1.4 BoosterJet, une façon à la fois économique et écologique de remplacer le diesel.
En attendant, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter pour un essai du Vitara mis à jour. Parce qu'il n'y a pas de mal à se faire du bien…
