Click to enlarge. 2007 Suzuki XL7 FAQs As an all-new vehicle, the 2007 Suzuki XL7 offers more power and room than the outgoing XL-7. Protected by a great powertrain warranty, it's ideal for shoppers who want maximum value from a capable seven-seat crossover vehicle.

What's new for the 2007 Suzuki XL7?
Everything; even the name changed, slightly, with Suzuki scratching the hyphen. Based on the same platform as the Chevy Equinox and Pontiac Torrent, but stretched longer to accommodate a third-row seat, the new XL7 is significantly more powerful, nicer to look at and more comfortable to drive than the outgoing model.

Will I be able to go off-road in the new Suzuki XL7, like the old XL-7?
Not really. While some off-pavement driving is fine, keep to well-traveled dirt roads. Suzuki's plan with its redesigned SUVs is to offer the smaller Grand Vitara for off-roaders and the XL7 as the larger, more comfortable on-pavement driver.

Why would somebody buy the 2007 Suzuki XL7?
Value would be the primary benefit you'd get from purchasing a Suzuki XL7. It's a competitive seven-seat crossover SUV with most of the things people require. It's ideal for those who want a great warranty, appreciate the XL7's styling, and require a capable crossover vehicle that seats seven for less than $30,000. Just keep in mind that aside from the styling, this is an apt description of many competing models.
