Recently I reviewed the facelifted Suzuki Vitara, but I thought some of you may want a closer look at the infotainment system. So with that in mind, here is a video dedicated to the 7" touchscreen fitted to the SZ-T trim level of the Vitara.
A full review of the car will come in a few days, so be sure to look out for that. In the meantime, if you have any questions, please give me a shout.

Thank you for the review - I ordered a Vitara yesterday after a test drive, but we didn't even look at the 'infotainment' . Would appreciate how you actually connect it for Apple car play (is it wireless, or need a lead?), and what it looks like when you put music on a SD / USB card into it, plus again how good it actually sounds.

I think it's this Bosch system. www.bosch-mobility-solutions.com/en/products-and-services/commercial-vehicles/interior-and-body-systems/infotainmentsystems/head-unit-for-commercial-vehicles/ But you probably contact your dealer for infotainment updates?

@CarObsession 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Jarkko, thanks for watching. I think there's a few good reasons for that. I'd say sound is quite a subjective thing, plus it's difficult to demonstrate a sound system on a KZfaq because you've got the potential copyright issues, and you've also got the fact of the viewer won't be hearing the sound system in person. They'll be hearing it through the speakers of their phone/PC/TV via my microphone, which is unlikely to give a true representation of the actual sound quality.

This infotainment system is junk. It won't stream music from your phone via the bluetooth without it sounding like a skipping cd. I have 2016 Vitara with a brand new head unit. It does this to all the android phones it was tested with. Mine, the dealer mechanic's etc. Plus there is no Aux input, a design over sight on the part of Suzuki & the usb input is only good if you put music on a usb flash drive. Over engineered junk. I'm about to replace mine with a car stereo head unit with an Aux input in it.
