In September 2005, the completely newly developed second generation of the Vitara with permanent four-wheel drive appeared. A barrier of the center differential and a railing reduction can be switched on electronically via a rotary switch.
The New Grand Vitara has a torsion-resistant passenger compartment with an integrated ladder frame. The rigid rear axle of the predecessor was replaced by independent wheel suspensions to get more comfort / smoothness on the road. Due to its wheelbase and ground clearance, as well as its technical features, it is closer to an off-road vehicle than an SUV and well-equipped for use in light to medium terrain.

Among other things, there is a new Comfort Plus equipment similar to the Suzuki Grand Vitara XL-7 of the predecessor series. This body version is no different from that of the other model versions. In addition to numerous other extras, this Comfort Plus features leather upholstery, Xenon headlamps and a glass sunroof, as well as root-wood imitation for the dashboard (available only for this trim level).
2009
In January 2009, the Grand Vitara received its first light facelift. The side indicators were integrated into the exterior mirrors. In addition, the control switches for the air conditioning have been changed and provided with a digital display for the set temperature.

In the summer of 2010, there was an additional change to the exhaust gas classification, so that now all gasoline engines meet the Euro 5 standard. Since 2012, the diesel engine has also created the Euro 5 standard.
2012
In autumn 2012, the Grand Vitara was subjected to another facelift . The facelift is particularly noticeable on the front, which includes a new grille and modified bumpers. There are no changes on the engine side.
After ten years, the production of this Grand Vitara generation was discontinued in the spring of 2015.
