2003 Suzuki XL-7
The 2003 Suzuki XL-7 tops off Suzuki's sport-utility line-up with nothing
to spare. It has size, power, and versatility. Three rows of seating move
up to seven people. The 2003 Suzuki XL-7 has all the trimmings you would
expect in a well-appointed luxury SUV plus real hauling power - it can
tow up to 3000-pounds, much higher than most other SUVs in its class.
Available Models
Touring and Limited trim levels for the 2003 Suzuki XL-7 are offered.
Also choose from two- or four-wheel drive.
Interior Features
Both models of the 2003 Suzuki XL-7 have standard seating for five people,
with the option of a 3rd row seat for two additional people. Inside the
Touring trim, standard features include front air conditioning, rear air
conditioning (with 3rd-row seat option), interior air filter, power steering,
tilt steering wheel with radio controls, cruise control, front bucket
seats, 2nd-row split folding seat, 3rd-row split folding seat (with 3rd-row
seat option), power mirrors, power windows, power door locks, remote keyless
entry, and AM/FM/CD player.
Up the line to the Limited trim, additions include leather upholstery,
leather-wrapped steering wheel, power sunroof, and AM/FM radio w/in-dash
6-disc CD changer. The seating/cargo configurations in both trims are
almost endless with the addition of the 3rd row seat option. The total
interior cargo space is 75.1 cubic-feet. Pack it all in and go.
Exterior Features
The 2003 Suzuki XL-7 is as well appointed on the exterior as it is on
the interior. Standard to the Touring trim is rear privacy glass, 16-inch
aluminum wheels, heated driver- and passenger-side power mirrors, as well
as roof rails in the unlikely event you couldn't fit something inside.
On the Limited trim add rear spoiler, running boards (with 3rd-row seat
option), fog lights, and heated power mirrors.
Performance
The largest engine Suzuki has to drop in is the 2.7-litre V6, 24-valve,
quad-cam engine pumping out 183 horsepower @ 6000 rpm and 180 ft-lb of
torque @ 4000 rpm. Estimated fuel consumption is 17/20 (city/hwy) mpg.
5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmissions are available.
Safety and Security
Standard safety features include second-generation dual front airbags,
daytime running lights, height-adjustable shoulder belts, keyless remote
entry, rear-door child safety locks, child seat LATCH system, and an energy-absorbing
steering column. ABS brakes are optional to the Touring trim, and standard
on the Limited trim. Also standard to both trims: reinforced side-impact
beams, a steel-reinforced passenger compartment, and integrated front
and rear crumple zones to reinsure impact safety.

2003 Suzuki XL-7 Highlights
 The
XL-7 builds on the basic virtues of the Suzuki Grand Vitara. With
a 12.6-inch longer wheelbase and an overall length that is 19.1-inches
longer, the XL-7 offers much more interior space. It has a larger,
more powerful V6 engine than its compact-class sibling, and the
midsized XL-7 can be equipped with manual or automatic transmission
and rear- or four-wheel drive.
With
prices ranging from under $20,000 to just over $26,000 depending
on trim level and options, the lavishly equipped XL-7 costs a fraction
of some prestigious SUVs, yet it matches many of them feature-for-feature.
And for 2003, the XL-7 moves further upscale with an all-new dashboard
and console design, as well as the addition of new equipment such
as: six-disc in-dash CD player with seven speakers including subwoofer
and tweeters, automatic climate control and more.
Either
trim level can be had with a "third-row option" that adds
a split-folding rear seat, upping the total head-count from five
to seven passengers. The third-row option also includes rear air
conditioning with control switches in both front and back, as well
as a below-deck storage bin and a first aid kit. Both the Touring
and Limited Edition are available in two- or four-wheel drive.
And
like all 2003 Suzuki models, the XL-7 is covered by the best warranty
in the business, Suzuki's new 7-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited
warranty. Fully transferable to succeeding owners and free of deductibles
for covered items, the powertrain limited warranty is designed to
boost value of time of resale value or trade-in and underscores
the corporation's confidence in its product quality. This powertrain
warranty covers the engine, transaxle, transmission, transfer case
and front- and rear-wheel-drive systems. Although Kia and Hyundai
offer 10-year/100,000-mile warranties, they aren't fully transferable.
