SUZUKI has stretched the Grand Vitara wheelbase 320mm (to 2800mm) and overall length 505mm (to 4700m) to create a vehicle that can hold seven people and a nameplate all its own: XL-7. There are obvious links with the baby Grand under the skin and on top, however XL-7 has quite a commanding presence in its own right with its authoritative stance, long profile and 16-inch alloy wheels. Other notable external features include dominating halogen headlamps, bulging wheel-arch mouldings, a prominent bulge running from the tail lamps to the rear doors and standard roof rails.
