In addition to self-charging technology, the petrol strong-hybrid system has three driving modes: pure EV, hybrid, and petrol. The strong hybrid unit is exclusively available with an e-CVT gearbox, whereas the mild hybrid unit can be purchased with either a six-speed automatic or manual five-speed transmission. This 1.5-litre mild-hybrid petrol engine produces 121.5Nm of peak torque and 86.6bhp of maximum power while running on CNG.

The Vitara offers a variety of attractive features, including the SmartPlay Pro+ infotainment system with a 9-inch touchscreen display, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and the built-in Next Gen Suzuki Connect with 40+ connected capabilities, along with a head-up display, a 360-degree camera, wireless charging, a panoramic sunroof, and ventilated & heated seats.
In terms of safety, the mid-size SUV includes six airbags, seat belt warning for all occupants, ISOFIX for child seats, ABS with EBD, ESP, a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and the recently added advanced pedestrian safety feature called Acoustic Vehicle Alerting System (AVAS), which alerts pedestrians to an oncoming EV. It functions by producing a low-pitched warning sound, with an audible range of five feet. The new safety feature was included under Automotive Industry Standard (AIS) 173, which mandates the inclusion of a pedestrian safety feature in fuel-cell vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel-cell hybrids with at least one electric motor or an electric motor generator.
