Suzuki confirms the great return of the automatic transmission, which was removed from the Vitara catalog in 2020. It is coming to the SUV but also to the S-Cross.
Suzuki today announces the return of the six-speed automatic transmission (engineered in-house) to the Vitara SUV and S-Cross. With the arrival of 129 hp hybrid engines, it had disappeared from the catalog in recent months.
A question probably of tuning for Suzuki to adapt the automatic transmission to the new engine, which replaces the old 1.4 of 140 hp. Note that the S-Cross crossover also gains this same automatic gearbox, which is now almost essential in a market that is increasingly turning to this type of transmission.
At Suzuki, you have the choice since this box is associated with two or four-wheel drive Allgrip, in Privilege (Vitara and S-Cross) and Style (Vitara) finishes. This box is so important that Suzuki announces that it should still represent 40% of Vitara and S-Cross sales in France. Suffice to say that it was better not to deprive yourself of it for too long.
