2003 suzuki grand vitara Professional Edmunds ReviewSource: Edmunds...Other additions this year include aluminum wheels, a seven-speaker stereo system with a CD player, adjustable center armrest with CD storage, an overhead console with reading lamps and storage compartments and a smaller rear headrest design for better reward visibility.

2004 Suzuki Vitara Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...A newly designed soft spare-tire cover is installed this year. Unlike some other small SUVs, the Vitara V6 is based on a truck chassis with separate body-on-frame construction.

The convertible comes standard with air... |

2003 Suzuki Grand Vitara Professional Cars.com ReviewSource: Cars.com...Daytime running lights are installed on all models. Driving Impressions Except for a somewhat choppy ride on the highway when the pavement is imperfect, the Grand Vitara is an appealing vehicle.
