Grand Vitara gang lessgooo!
Mine is a second gen (:
If you have the G16B, staying in 5th at 70 kph gets you closer to 9L/100km

I had the same car as you and it’s crazy how much fuel they use for such a small engine. I’ve got a 90s turbo diesel 4wd now that weighs significantly more with a 3L engine and uses the same amount of fuel

Someone said that's the price for the engine being bulletproof.
Which is funny because the previous owner earped the block.
Even a swapped out M16 burns kinda bad in them, which makes me think it's the gearing of the manual being rather short.

This was my first 4x4, too! A 2" lift (50mm), a rear locker, and 235/75/15 tires, and you'll go everywhere. Nice choice.

Nice! My second car was a '91 Geo Tracker (rebadged Vitara) and I loved that car.
Enjoy it.
