2025 Vitara Hybrid: Facelift, Upgraded Tech and Efficiency Drive Appeal
The Vitara hybrid remains a popular model in the range and Suzuki is very pleased to announce some significant revisions for 2025 with redefined SUV styling, an even higher level of standard equipment and technology as well as further improved hybrid efficiency.
Refined SUV Styling
One of the most noticeable updates for the 2025 Vitara is its refreshed exterior design. The front of the car gets a completely reworked grille and bumper, giving it a more modern, dynamic look. The rear also benefits from a new upper spoiler and rear window side spoilers, adding a touch of sportiness. In addition, the Vitara now rides on newly designed 17-inch alloy wheels, further elevating its presence on the road. Two new metallic colour options are available: Sphere Blue Pearl dual-tone and Titan Dark Grey single-tone, offering customers more ways to personalise their vehicles.
Enhanced Safety Features
Safety continues to be a priority for Suzuki, and the 2025 Vitara reflects this with a higher level of technology and features as standard. Both the Motion and Ultra grades now come equipped with advanced driver-assist technologies:
- Lane Keep Assist
- Intelligent Speed Control
- Driver Monitoring System
- eCall for emergency assistance
One of the most significant upgrades is to the Dual Sensor Brake Support, which has been enhanced to use a combination of millimetre-wave radar and a monocular camera. This new system improves collision mitigation, offering better night-time performance, enhanced visibility at intersections, and more accurate detection of pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, and other vehicles.
Standard Tech Upgrades
Inside, the 2025 Vitara offers a more connected and comfortable experience with an upgraded suite of standard features. Both Motion and Ultra grades now include a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, along with wireless smartphone integration for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto along with:
- Keyless entry and start
- High Beam Assist
- Auto-dimming rear-view mirror
- Rear parking sensors
- Suzuki Connect with a three-year free subscription
Ultra Grade: Even More Features
For those who want a little more luxury and convenience, the Ultra grade steps up the specification even further to include:
- New 17-inch polished alloy wheels
- Panoramic sliding sunroof
- Premium suede and leather seats
- Front and rear parking sensors
- Electric folding door mirrors with built-in indicators
- Overhead storage console for extra convenience
Improved Hybrid Efficiency
Suzuki has also focused on making the Vitara even more efficient for 2025, with improved fuel economy and lower CO2 emissions. For the manual transmission models with 2-wheel drive (2WD), the 1.4-litre mild-hybrid engine offers a 9% improvement in fuel consumption, now achieving an impressive 53.2 mpg (WLTP combined). Full hybrid models with 2WD and AGS (Automated Gear Shift) transmission see a 6% improvement, reaching 56.4 mpg. The CO2 emissions have also been reduced, with the 1.5-litre full hybrid Motion model now emitting just 113g/km, down from 119g/km in the previous model.
Powertrain Options: Mild Hybrid & Full Hybrid
As before, the 2025 Vitara continues to offer hybrid power as standard, with a choice of two powertrains:
- 1.4-litre Boosterjet turbocharged petrol engine with 48V mild hybrid for those who prefer a manual transmission, or:
- 1.5-litre full hybrid version with AGS transmission, offering the convenience of automatic transmission.
Both versions can be paired with either 2WD or 4WD, offering flexibility to meet different driving needs and makes the Vitara one of the few compact SUVs to offer both manual and automatic hybrid drivetrain options, with the choice of four-wheel drive as well.
With the 2025 updates, the Vitara continues to deliver a blend of modern style, advanced safety features, and eco-friendly hybrid technology. Whether you’re looking for a practical daily driver, a family-friendly SUV, or a vehicle with cutting-edge tech and improved efficiency, the new Vitara checks all the boxes. The introduction of the Motion and Ultra grades further enhances its appeal, offering more customisation options and added luxury. With better fuel economy, lower emissions, and an even higher level of standard equipment, the 2025 Vitara looks set to remain a strong contender in the competitive small SUV market.
