- 2020 Suzuki Vitara Hybrid Test Drive Review POV .
1.4-litre K14D Boosterjet turbocharged engine - in detail
The Boosterjet engine was developed with Suzuki’s ethos of reducing weight and size with added response and smooth power delivery to achieve the characteristics that Suzuki engines are renowned for.
The 1.4-litre engine has now been developed further for the 2020 Vitara model and is fitted to all three model grades. It is designated as K14D and incorporates a new electric Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system for the intake side as well as new design fuel injectors and a higher pressure fuel pump. The exhaust camshaft side is controlled via a conventional Hydraulic VVT actuator.
The Dual VVT system improves engine performance by continuously varying both intake and exhaust valve timing to suit engine operating conditions and the electric motor drive intake VVT has a characteristic to shift the timing phase more smoothly regardless of engine oil temperature and engine speed. The combined effect of the two VVT’s attains optimum engine power, improved fuel efficiency and lower CO2 emissions.
Fuel is injected at a higher pressure of 360 Bar into the combustion chamber during the air intake stroke which then forms a rich mixture around the spark plug and leaner mixture around the outer edge of the piston. The tumble flow of the fuel is created by utilising a straight intake port and a complex shape piston crown design.
A variable fuel control system is also utilised that optimally monitors fuel injection pressure according to the driving situation. By widening the range of fuel injection, PM (Particulate Matter) and PN (Particulate Number) emissions are reduced across the low to high engine speed ranges. This helps promote fuel atomisation and also improves fuel combustion efficiency.
The K14D Boosterjet engine has been developed with Suzuki’s ethos of reducing weight and size with added response and smooth power delivery to achieve the characteristics that Suzuki engines are renowned for.
During development, Suzuki’s engineers virtually eliminated the typical delay in turbo power delivery or ‘lag’ by attaching the compact turbo charger directly to the cylinder head as well as incorporating the exhaust manifold into the cylinder head casting. This design ensures optimum gas flow with minimal heat loss through to the turbo unit which has a boost pressure of 1.1 Bar.
Historically, power and torque delivery from a turbo-charged engine would not have been available until much higher engine speeds, offering less flexibility to the driver. This is now enhanced even further with the adoption of the 48V hybrid system.
The 1.4-litre engine offers strong benefits in performance too with a 0-62mph acceleration time of 9.5 seconds (2WD models) for both manual and automatic transmissions and a maximum speed (where permitted) of 118mph.
48V Hybrid Technology.
Similar in basic principle to the 12V Hybrid system that Suzuki pioneered in 2016, which is now fitted to all manual transmission Ignis models and all Swift models from the Summer of 2020, the newly developed 48V Hybrid Powertrain for Vitara remains very lightweight in design and its components add less than 15kg to the overall weight of the vehicle.
The new and higher-powered Suzuki system consists of a 48V lithium-ion battery, Integrated Starter Generator (known as ISG) and 48V-12V (DC/DC) converter to power components requiring lower voltage including lights, audio and air conditioning. The ISG acts as both a generator and starter motor, is belt driven and assists the petrol engine during vehicle take off for a higher level of torque with 235Nm available from 2,000rpm and up to 3,000rpm.
The compact and high-performance lithium-ion battery stores electrical energy recovered from deceleration and braking and incorporates an idle stop function operated via the Integrated Starter Generator. This battery, as well as the DC/DC convertor unit, are located under the front seats to assist overall weight distribution.
The 48V system also has new torque-fill control and torque boost features which are not provided on the 12V version. These features enhance driving feel by adding torque from the electric motor to engine torque during acceleration.
Even though the Boosterjet turbo charger of the K14D engine becomes fully operational from just 2,000rpm, Torque Boost is beneficial at even lower engine speeds as it helps optimise the torque curve and provide even smoother acceleration when full throttle is applied from rest.
A further efficiency benefit of the new 48V Hybrid system is the introduction of electric motor idling when the clutch is disengaged and vehicle speed is below approximately 50mph (80km/h). This feature essentially replaces fuel injection with power from the electric motor to then control and maintain engine idling when the vehicle is decelerating and when stationary.

It’s great value for money and you can’t fault Suzuki’s reliability! Nice POV review! 👍
Yes indeed 👍Thanks 🙏🙏🙂
I have had one for a year now ,love it.
Nice 👍
Hi from Greece !! Very nice car . It's very good on road and offroad too !!
Thanks Periklis 👍🙏
Hi from Athens! We're picking up our new one this afternoon. Fingers crossed all is as good as you say!!
Very helpful video. Thank you very much. In the end this is the best value for money for a suv 4wd hybrid cross over.
Thanks for watching and for feedback Rene. Yes indeed an great price for what it offers 👍
i purchased Suzuki Vitara it called “ESCUDO” in Japan🇯🇵 Vitara is nice car
Great review, however the CO2 page you showed was for the 140ps non-Hybrid version of this car. The Hybrid version is 111gr of CO2 and is the A Catagory.
Yes 👍 Thanks for feedback
Nicee review👍..i was waiting for this video, for a long time.
Could you share the details on the fuel consumption for the hybrid model, based on your drive. Is the hybrid model worth spending the extra money or is the regular petrol better, in terms of drving and fuel consumption.. Thanks..
Hallo Rahul, it is 10 to 20% more economic and 10% less co2 . 50kg more then normal version ...now you can decide .👍
It also gives you a little boost when accelerating.
great review greetings from greece
Thanks Chris 🙏👍 Also thanks for watching my videos
cool video, very helpful when you are thinking about buying this car - lets you feel like you are the on driving the car
for me, this suv is best vaule for money
Thanks Pablo really appreciate your feedback 👍 🙏
I have the same observations. The steering wheel is very soft. You have to have a strong stable grip when running above 120kph
👍
Just discovered this car and it looks very fantastic. Need a replacement for my diesel berlingo which has a engine fault but I only drive in the city with it(sry for my English)
Joey the car is very good and affordable. You should do a test drive and check if you like it 👍🙂🙏Thanks for feedback
Great review. Did you drive the Renault Captur? Which of the 2 do you like the most.
They are very similar..I have an Review with it on my channel 👍
Have you driven the previous 140hp k14c engine without hybridization? Could you tell me if there is a difference in performance between the two versions?
Sadly I didn't drive it and can't tell you the difference....but this one was pretty good 👍
Hello from Greece!
Sir, nice review.
I am thinking to buy this car until the end of the year.
I am a little bit worried about the steering wheel. What is your opinion?
Now I am driving an Alfa Romeo Mito MY2017 which has an excellent steering wheel but the car is too small for me and my family.
Thank you in advanced!
Hi George, I like it to be honest but you have to test it yourself for better idea. By the way thanks for watching the video 👍👍
Hi. I had 2018 1.4 non hybrid version. Sadly, steering is rubbish. As sound insulation, materials quality, ergonomics, resale value. Boot is hard to close. Mine had 6 speed manual gearbox - hard to change gears. Dealer told me it’s normal :) Sold after 13k km of use :(
Donatas Dičmanas thank you for the answer :)
What car you bought after Vitara?
@@donatasdicmanas5009 Thanks for the informations. That's maybe why the car is so cheap. :(
@@donatasdicmanas5009 Έχω πάρει το HYBRID ALLGRIP 2020 και είναι πραγματικά πολύ value for money .Πολυ καλή κύλιση onroad αλλά και εξαιρετικές δυνατότητες offroad . Μετά το facelift Η ποιότητα στο ταμπλό έχει αναβαθμιστεί καθώς πλέον έχει σε ένα μεγάλο τμήμα μαλακό υλικό. Οι επενδύσεις στις πόρτες είναι με σκληρά υλικά αλλά με καλή συναρμογή. Σαφώς και υπάρχουν πιο premium αυτοκίνητα, αλλά η τελική σχέση τιμής με αυτά που προσφέρει, έχει σίγουρα θετικό πρόσημο!!
Enjoyed the video! Good review.Thanks!
Also thanks for watching my videos 🙏👍
Sport mode set more torque on the rear wheeels to feel like a sport car.
You forget the LOCK mode too :)
That one is not able to run on electric motor only. The mild hibrid system means a small 48V batery that helps the thermic engine by taking over AC and other stuff and by helping in hard moments. It is a very reliable engine though and good for taxes. Bad quality at doors they are not closing from first attempt etc. On average is a good car.
Thanks Dan for feedback 👍really appreciate 🙏
Take the car on auto mode traction on stiffer wheels more feeling control
Yes right 👍👍👍
That or Duster? Great work with the channel!
Thanks Sebastian. I think Both are similar ....Vitara have better interior quality
Wait the vitara was a hybrid? SWEET
how tall is the driver of this video? I am 1.93m tall and unfortunately in front view I have my eyes just below the sun visor, unfortunately the windshield is very low and the seat can be lowered slightly, it remains very high ... what do you think?
I think you should do a longer test drive to see if this will fit for your everyday drive.....1,73cm was the driver. Hope it help 👍
@@SDADanCars thank you
👍🙏
I would like to buy this car but I am a bit skeptical buying a manual gear box. I have been driving automatic for a while.
Manual gears are the most reliable , dont worry about them, they are not so comfortable at city drive but reliable.
just get the auto version then
@@ltwlof4967 There is no automatic version (at least where I live, France)
Is line assist just a reminder or is it the car's trying to keep the car in the lane?
I cant remember 😪 i will try to do another video and check 👍
Did someone manage to find the real consumption of this vitara with the hybrid engine?
Its nota a hybrid, its a mild hybrid
@@alexxandreipopescu208 i suppose you are a toyota hybrid driver that does not appreciate the mild hybrid technology?
@@DirtAlert.Off-RoadAdventures It stores kinetic energy into the battery when braking or decelerating and that stored energy is then used to help with accelerating. It’ll give you a slightly better fuel economy than without it.
Great car
Yes 👍
Thanks for the vid but I think I did not catch the consumption of this trip?
I don't remember ..... check in the video maybe you can find out 👍
Best car in the world
👍👍
2nd place after my Forester XT. Suzuki hybrid is fantastic. Best regards for the video Author.
@@janshama4050 Same here.
My grandmom have this car
Cool 😎
:)))))))
I think you should change place put camera. When you put on your head looks the videos too headache
Ok 👌
Will there be an automatic transmission version of this Vitara?
Not sure to tell you....maybe on hybrid version 👍
@@SDADanCars Thank you.
Link for Dan's review of the Suzuki Vitara: ua-cam.com/video/GxVWrfUQcRA/v-deo.html
Thanks
what consumption ?
Around 6l
No digital speedometer?
Not yet 😪
@@SDADanCars thats something I find useful these days with all the cameras and smart motorways etc. My Swift is the same, none on that either.
hi does vitara is loudy on high speed way ? (autobahn)
For me was OK.... not so loud...
Yes it is loud.
how much prices
I have another video with the same car full Review there is price and all info👍
just drive once!!!
👍
The suspension is not all that great lol, the car feels every bump, what are you talking about? It's a cheap car with a cheap suspension
Matthew for the price and the class they are ok. We can't compare it with mercedes ....but they are OK. 👍
@@SDADanCars agree they are OK.
Nothing to do with the price, it is design. Some cars from 30 years ago have good ride quality. Some expensive modern cars ride the crap.
@@jamescaley9942 completely agree
The noisiest car ever build
👍
@@SDADanCars but it is silent or noisy I did not understand...
arwite He thought he meant the most nice car ever XD!
So he worked at Jay Leno's garrage, or mistaken with electric cars.
