Based on the previous-generation Grand Vitara, the Suzuki XL-7 in 2007 boasts an optional third-row seat. However, there’s plenty of luggage room with the rearmost seat folded down, but when the third row is in use, cargo capacity is very limited. Also, the mechanism to drop the third-row seating awkward. While the Suzuki XL-7 offers seven-passenger seat and a reasonable price in a small package, does not fit well with the competition segment. Compact SUV like the Escape, CR-V and a number of other car-based SUVs smoother and have more off-road capability. And if you really need three rows of seating in a compact package, we recommend seeing a small minivan like the Mazda5 or Caravan, both of which offer a more practical solution to this problem.

The four-door Suzuki XL-7 in 2007 is available in one trim level. The five-passenger base model is well equipped with power door locks and windows, remote keyless entry; heated mirrors, cruise control, automatic climate control, daytime running lights, an adjustable center armrest, a six-speaker stereo system with an MP3-compatible CD player, and tinted privacy glass. The seven-passenger version adds a two-person third-row seat plus rear air conditioning. The Premium package adds running boards, leather seating, foglights, a power sunroof, a seven-speaker audio system with in-dash CD changer and steering wheel-mounted audio controls. All Suzuki XL-7 models are equipped with a 2.7-liter V6 engine that produces 185 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. A five-speed automatic transmission is standard. Fuel economy ratings are 17-18 mpg for city driving and 22 mpg on the highway, about average for a truck-based compact SUV. For secutity system the XL-7 comes standard with antilock brakes and a tire-pressure monitor, but neither side airbags nor stability control is available. NHTSA has not conducted crash tests on the Suzuki XL-7. In 40-mph frontal-offset crash testing conducted by the IIHS, the XL-7 earned a “Good” score or also the highest possible
