Overview & Reviews

For 2003, Suzuki has updated the Grand Vitara XL-7's dash and console with wood grain trim, chrome accents and a 12-volt accessory outlet. Other additions to the interior include a new seven-speaker system, integrated audio and cruise control buttons on the steering wheel, an adjustable center armrest with CD storage and smaller rear headsets for better rearward visibility.

Suzuki has also changed some of its trim names for 2003. The previous "Standard" trim has now simply become the XL-7, while the "Plus" has become the XL-7 with the option of third-row seating. The "Touring" model has been dropped all together. The Limited model is now being offered with a six-disc in-dash CD changer. Finally, a Limited model with the third-row option is also available with climate control and a rear air conditioning switch.

• Affordable base price, competent on- and off-road handling, optional seven-passenger seating, stylish design.

• Cramped second- and third-row seating, side airbags not available.

  I have 60,000 mile on my XL7 without any trouble. Handles as well now as when it was brand new. Fun to drive and was good in the snow this past winter.

  Great Value - Luxury, Perf., Utility - 2003 Suzuki XL-7
  By BobP - May 12 - 10:00 am

  I was looking for an SUV as a second vehicle to compliment a luxury sports sedan that I have. I seem to have found it. The style is contemporary. Interior is beautiful and plush. There is plenty of cargo room. The ride and quietness is almost better than my 35K sedan. I drove several SUVs in the low 20s and this one by far could compete with those 10K more. I think it will be a great experience

  best kept secret - 2003 Suzuki XL-7
  By malexa00 - May 6 - 10:00 am

  Just purchased the XL-7 Touring model without the 3rd row seat. Very happy so far. Comes with a lot of standard features for the price paid. The size of the XL-7 is somewhere between the compact SUVs (Rav-4, CRV) and the mid-large SUVs (Pilot, Explorer). Fun to Drive. If Suzuki came out with a full size SUV it would give the Explorer and Pilot a lot of competition.

  2001 XL-7 Plus 4X4 - 2003 Suzuki XL-7
  By Frank B. - September 3 - 2:00 am

  I actually have a 2001 but its virtually the same vehicle. I love this truck...Yes a truck, not an awd car type SUV. Suzuki has been doing it right for many years and The Grand Vitara/XL-7 is one of their finest. The 3rd row of seats sold me! Oh yah, Durango has 7 pass seating but I didnt have $10,000 more and uh, try sitting in the back of one. Love my XL- 7!
