Suzuki Escudo despite of not sharing the best of the V6 engines with its consumers has stayed in the market of new and used cars. This is because of several other advantages that it offers. The Suzuki Escudo is more popular as Suzuki Vitara, Geo Tracker, GMC Tracker, Suzuki Grand Vitara and other names that are given to it by different manufacturers who shared this SUV technology with Suzuki. Besides the list of names from different generations is huge, the trims that have been introduced in different generations are no less. Suzuki Escudo’s life that started in 1988 is based on three generations.

The price of the car has constantly remained very reasonable for the abundant features and great performance that different versions of this sedan have been offering. The more advantageous fact about Suzuki Escudo is that it has a good reselling value which has made a version from the present generation available in the market. The Suzuki Escudo has all that a modern SUV should have and that for a reasonable price. Let us review the Suzuki Escudo specs for you:

Suzuki Escudo Exterior

There are three different versions of Suzuki Escudo available from the year 2008, all having spectacular looks. The Suzuki Escudo price for the base version is most affordable but doesn’t lack the interior features. The good looking broad bonnet ends on the chrome grill that is enclosed between two broad headlights. In the Sports versions there is added with alloy wheels and sunroof. With the luxury version the alloy wheels are even more extended with no change in exterior but added options in interiors. The most popoular models of Suzuki Escudo includes 2005, 2006, 2003, 2008, 2007.

Interior of Suzuki Escudo

The interior design is luxuriously soft looking. This is due to the high quality materials used everywhere in the SUV. Unlike other cars of Suzuki that usually lack in this criteria and therefore can’t compete with the other brands, this SUV gives enough competition to the other brands. The manifold cluster is enthused with aluminum. The leather works are impressive looking but a little less comfortable.

The luggage space is competitive only when the seats are folded.

Equipment

Suzuki Escudo 2008 has full power accessories in all three versions. The automatic climate control, keyless entry, MP3/CD player, disc changer, speed sensitive volume control and cruise control as well.

Suzuki Escudo Safety

This is perhaps the safest vehicle with maximum automatic safety functions available for a price. Besides the airbags there is a stability control, traction control, airbags, side curtains and antilock disc brakes. The car has scored well in the frontal crash test for passenger and driver.

The Powertrains

It is a delightful fact that for the same Suzuki Escudo price, the base version buyers will get the same engine as the luxury and Sport version. The 2.7L engine with V6 technology delivers 185hp and 184lbft of torque. It is true that there is better engine performance available in the competitors SUVs like RAV4 and CR-V. The 5-speed manual and 5-speed automatic versions are standard and optional on the base model respectively whereas the sports and luxury trim has 5-speed automatic as a standard.

With slightly less performance but amazing price this car in all is of good value due to its off road capabilities.
