Suzuki XL7
The XL7 utility vehicle is derived from GM's Equinox and Torrent models. However, Suzuki has lengthened its platform to accommodate third row seating. Equipped with a 3.6-litre V6 engine, it comes with a new six-speed automatic transmission, which improves both its power output and fuel-efficiency. And because of poor sales, Suzuki has chose to reduce the series to only one version for 2009, the all-wheel drive JLX.
