The Grand Vitara was introduced as “a new breed of SUVs” and was meant to change the SUV market in India. Customers have been very happy with the Grand Vitara’s variety of products, which include the Intelligent Electric Hybrid, the Progressive Smart Hybrid, and the Suzuki ALLGRIP SELECT. Now, S-CNG technology is being added to the Grand Vitara.

With the addition of the S-CNG option, the Grand Vitara’s appeal grows even more. The Grand Vitara S-CNG will help us reach our ambitious goal of having 14 models with green powertrains.

MSIL S-CNG Technology
MSIL S-CNG vehicles are safe, perform well, last a long time, and use little fuel. They are tested at MSIL’s world-class Research and Development facility. The S-CNG vehicles have two Electronic Control Units (ECU) that work together and an Intelligent Injection System. This gives them an air-to-fuel ratio that makes them run better and use less gas. The pipes and joints in the S-CNG system are made of stainless steel to prevent corrosion and leaks in the whole CNG structure. Integrated Wire Harnesses are used to prevent short-circuiting, and a Microswitch makes sure that the vehicle doesn’t start during the CNG fuel-filling process.
