The Suzuki XL6 GLX is similar to the Ertiga in terms of spaciousness but offers a more luxurious feel, resembling the Grand Vitara. Where does this model fit in? Let’s delve into the details.
Suzuki has been making significant strides in the South African market, with record-breaking sales figures in January 2024. With 5,235 new customers welcomed, Suzuki achieved its highest monthly sales ever, surpassing the 5,000 mark for the first time.
The XL6 is part of Suzuki’s diverse model range that appeals to a wide range of buyers. Positioned below the Grand Vitara in the model hierarchy, the XL6 is a new addition that offers a six-seater SUV based on the Ertiga platform.
The exterior of the XL6 features redesigned elements such as headlights, grille, and a lower bumper. The rear showcases an Ertiga-like design with a black boot and L-shaped brake lights, albeit with a smoked finish. Roof rails and body cladding enhance the SUV appeal.
Customization options include a choice of exterior colors and a two-tone color scheme for GLX versions, featuring bold colors like Opulent Red and Brave Khaki paired with a Midnight Black roof. The interior boasts a multi-function steering wheel, a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and individual seats for added comfort.
The XL6 is powered by a 1.5-liter petrol engine delivering 77kW and 138Nm of torque, paired with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. Standard features across all models include LED headlights, fog lights, alloy wheels, a rear-view camera, electric windows, air conditioning, power sockets, keyless entry, child-seat mounts, airbags, and safety features like Hill Hold Control.
On the road, the XL6 drives like Suzuki’s passenger cars, offering a comfortable ride with good handling. The engine performs well even with additional passengers, while fuel consumption varies between manual and automatic transmissions. Real-world fuel consumption averages at 6.7 liters per 100km.
Competing with the Honda BR-V, the XL6 stands out for its affordability, spaciousness, and standard features. With pricing starting at R336,900 for the base model, the XL6 range includes a service plan and warranty for added peace of mind.
