Navigating your way through the world of small SUVs must be a flipping nightmare. But perhaps this one has a chance of standing out because unlike a Juke or Kona or Aircross (or T-Roc, HR-V, CH-R or any of the 4,304 others), it has heritage.
The Vitara name has been plonked on the back of small, road-biased 4x4s since 1988, making it a ‘crossover’ before that blasted word had infiltrated just about every sector car market. Heck, there was a convertible Vitara decades before a convertible Evoque.
