For the Suzucki XL7 could l still get it pretty cheap even though l wanted a navagation system and leather? How is the power in it, like when you turn a corner can you feel the car speeding up quickly? Tell me EVERYTHING about the XL7.

The 07 & newer XL7 is a complete redesign based of the GM Theta platform ( Saturn Vue/Pontiac Equiniox/etc.) It is Suzuki is top of the line with all the xtras offered such as Nav/Blutooth/backup camera/etc. Quality has been good. Not recommended for off road. All Wheel Drive does make it a good handling vehicle in icy conditions though.

06 & newer Grand Vitara is pure Japanese Suzuki with typical never breaks Japanese quality. It is more of a true SUV that can handle off road pretty good.

l have nothing bad to say about either of them.

Okay, the XL7 is the better in just about every way then the Grand Vitara for only about $2000 more. The XL7 has a modern & efficient 3.6L V6 with 250 HP/Torque (so plenty of power), while the Grand Vitara has an outdated 2.7L V6 with only 185 HP/Torque. And even though it is 400 lb is heavier & has much more power/speed the XL7 only loses 1 mpg overall & puts out less smog/pollution. The XL7 is much more roomy & can seat 7, while the Grand Vitara can only seat 5. l can find a single reason not to go with the superior XL7, unless u simply find it too big for you. l notice that often times these small SUV is r so close in price to their mid-size version that l could never go with a Tucson when a much nicer Santa Fe is only a couple grand more & just as efficient. l think the XL7 like the Hyundai Santa Fe & new Toyota Rav4 r the best value & quality mid-size SUV is on the market, u can not go wrong with any of those 3.

Suzuki XL7
Power: 252hp 6500rpm
Torque: 243ft/lb2300rpm
0-60 in 7.9sec
Top speed:115mph
Price: Between $21,000- $31,500 (depending on package, options, & discounts)

Braking is stable & brake pedal needs little effort to stop. There is a little understeer, yet can handle good for a SUV. The acceleration may be quick for a 7-seater SUV, even if u may not feel it accelerate, u will hear it accelerating when pushed hard.

Suzuki Grand Vitara
Power: 185hp6000rpm
Torque: 184ft/lb4500rpm
0-60 in 9 seconds
Top Speed: 110mph
Price: Between $17,500-$30,500 (depending on package, options, & discounts)

Compared to the XL7, the Grand Vitara is slower, but the Handling is about the same. Braking is the same compared to the XL7, but it does nose dive a pinch in hard braking
