For me the analogue dials with the colour display in the middle is a yes! I like it far more than fully digital dials. For some looks cheap, for me is more like a good analogue watch over a cheap digital smartwatch.

In terms of presentation the best video you have done 👌

Another great review, I like your judgments based on common sense and not emotions

I've just ordered one. I was originally going to order an Ultra, but the clincher for me was that I can have a Motion by March, but the Ultra would be June / July at least. (Apparently the first batch delivered to the UK have sold out already!). For me, the upgrades are "nice to have", but none of them are dealbreakers, so I'm happy to save the difference and get quicker delivery (and slightly faster 0 - 60, and higher mpg) by settling for the Motion.

All you need to do is to release the button once you're in R then continue pushing it down to D and it won't go beyond that.

Another great review tish Really like the new wheels on the top spec car Nice auto social lanyard wish i had one Keep up the good work can't wait to see what cars you review this year 👍

Great review, it's good to get the comparison 👍

Great video tish id go for basic version as would be good enough for wot i need it for.

Great review

Great review, thanks for info on the auto. The SCross range prior was very good too, with engines regularly clocking up over 100k miles. They're good motors, well equipped even as a base model (they just don't shout about the kit that they have). I like analogue dials tbh. If a good cross-climate tyre is fitted then most of the time 4WD isn't needed in 2/3rds of the UK, so a 2WD version is good to use (our previous generation model 2WD has been fine, but we will upgrade to cross climate tyres as we have with our other car).

Am l missing something? Why worry too much about Infotainment & Sat Nav spec? Is'nt it all constantly updated on your mobile?

Hi tish have you got any idea on how I can get the little snow sport animation screen to show animated pictures to show up when selecting I've just picked my ultra up yesterday and it don't show any animated pics only says the word my suzuki dealer don't seem to know what's wrong thanks

This is like watching my grandaughter doing a review . Beginning to feel my age .

Good review Tish. Please can you say what actual mpg you get . We all know the figures quoted are not real world.

Great comparison Tish, don't see many of them. The motion is very well kitted out, i can see where the extra 5k goes for the top spec, for me I would opt for the ultra for those extra few additions and the 4wd.

How about Audio quality and handsfree qualitY?

Been thinking about this car for a few weeks now and will visit dealer this week. If I can get the base model with automatic then will go for that.

I enjoyed watching the Video. I prefer the Ultra as It comes with Leather Seats

Great review Tish. The Ultra is worth the extra £5 grand

Is the new version taller?

Not my kind of car but great video comparing specs of the same car. So rare 👍

A great review Tish. Again very thorough explaining the differences in a way that is easy to understand. There's lot's of standard kit on both of them. 5K appears a lot in isolation between the two models though but if you consider the options list from other brands that base price increases significantly. the 4 wheel drive would be my preference and easily adds a few thousand on its own, leather can also add a thousand as can an automatic transmission with clever off road systems. A panoramic sun roof can also add a thousand. So I guess it boils down to if you want every one of those differences. 4x4-check, Automatic-check (although I don't like the manual all the way back), Panoramic sunroof- I'm not sure and the better infotainment with 360 camera view- check. So for me anyway I think it's worth it. For now though I'm not yet ready to change my car so we shall see when it is time to change.

I would go with the Motion which looks like a great package for the money and has everything you need IMO. It certainly doesn't look like an entry level SUV. It's a smart looking no nonsense small SUV.

If I was purchasing this on finance I’d go for the ultra, it doesn’t look like a premium car on the inside but it looks far less cheap than other Suzukis with exception to the Toyota based ones. I hope in the mid-life refresh it’ll get some more modern tweaks like a digital drivers display.

Interesting review. Like the motion version and can’t make my mind up re manual or automatic gear box.

Y esta versión llegará a Mexico en el 2023? 😩

Nothing wrong with analogue dials, just look at the current selection of wrist watches.

What a beauty cars. Love it

Super review tish like Suzuki motion best 👍

Great review! I m getting the GL edition this week, Sphere Blue, here in Greece, which is the basic, and it's going to cost me 21700 euros. There's also the GL+ and the GLX. I think Motion should be something like GL+ in the UK but I am not sure. Well I think that GL is super ok for that price, If I had more money to spend for a car, I would probably go for another car to be honest!

Hi tish does the sat nav version have speed camera location thanks

That probably is £5k of extra spec including the gearbox. If could get upgraded head unit on base spec and 4 winter tyres, probably all you'd need.

Picked my Ultra up last week and I love it.

Does both the cars have front camera??

Yup. I’ll go for the ultra :-)

She and Nicola from carbuyer would be perfect for all female top gear esque series

Waiting for it to drop in India...hope they don't remove many features from the car

The gearstick will stop in drive, if you release the lock button, after you start pulling the stick.😉

4x4 is no replacement for winter tyres but the rest seems worth it. Even the space trade off for the sunroof

Does the ultra come with tpms thanks

I heard the S-Cross is soon gonna be sold in Mexico, but it’s not coming to the US.

Ultra for me 👍👍

Currently have a Vitara. I like the car, but still don't understand why they don't put in a digital speedometer. I've seen a couple of comments about analog being better to see increase/decrease of speed....that makes no sense though. 9? different pages of digital info on the dash (only one is actually of use)....but no digital speedo.

Suzuki Ertiga is in South Africa the Ertiga LX6 & LX7 is in Mexico & India .

Been told today my new ultra will be here for beginning of march

the red is a 4x4 and it has a 360 camera which the other one doesnt have

Suzuki must bring the intire range to South Africa.

For me I when straight for the 4x4 version

After purchasing the ultra model my local dealer is now telling me the ultra model does not have android auto wireless not very happy with them at all tish

I would only pay extra for four wheel drive over the front wheel drive version, cos I believe the only way crossovers make sense is if they have four wheel drive. Also, I can’t believe some cars like the Nissan Kaškaj or the Džuk don’t have alloy wheels as standard, cos it’s the 2020s not the 1990s. Great review as always Niece Tish.

I prefer the Toyota Yaris Cross Excel model. Residual value will be far better with the Toyota.

Hi I dont want to be rude in any way but who ever buys this car like I've just purchased the ultra but stoneacre only had the motion for me to look at at the time but their are thing missing like all the buttons are not back lite their is no footwell lights like described in the spec but still a good buy for what you do get

The extra £5K is worth it I'd say Tish

Wao s cross

No digital dials or electric parking break a killer for me

The motion range has got a didgital speedo

The outside is pretty good.Not inside.

Bye the way waiting for its launch in india

Great car but alot of carry over parts from the second generation

Only difference is "ting..ting...ting alloy weels"

I think the difference is worth the 5k. I'd really want the Allgrip, so I'd have to go for the Ultra and there's enough difference to justify that. You get a lot for 5k, and I like the simple range. But I think the s cross is too expensive. The Ford puma starts at 23k and you can buy a pretty nice Yaris Cross for less than 30k. This is a facelift of a 2013 car that was nothing special on launch almost a decade ago. On that basis I have to say asking 30k for it is a bit cheeky. I'd say motion should be 20k, and ultra 25.

Ultra

Nobody talk about problems with abnormal noise in cabine of all new models from Suzuki Hungary zrt. as noice from a giant hornet into dashboard as in my New Suzuki Vitara: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pqx3i9Zm39WwhGQ.html

Alloy wheels. I didn't cheat😀

It's very noisy on the motorway

No

i wales we call them cockle women
