The safe bet
Efficient and light on its feet, the little Suzuki is a good drive but wind noise is obtrusive at highway speeds

A good value package but does lag behind the others in certain respects

The Vitara Brezza’s lack of ESC might raise an eyebrow or two

The second Japanese entry in our group test is Suzuki’s sub-fourmetre long Vitara Brezza. Introduced to the local market in April 2021, the Vitara Brezza is sandwiched between the entrylevel Ignis and larger Vitara. For this test, we used our previous long-term test car in GLX spec with a manual gearbox; sporting a price tag of R289 900, it is the second most affordable car here, R5 400 dearer than the Sonet.
Suzuki has garnered a good reputation
