Suzuki Vitara Auto

The Suzuki Vitara is a practical SUV for travellers who want comfort, space and extra confidence on Icelandic roads. It is easier and roomier than a small city car, while still being manageable for Reykjavik pickup, parking and everyday driving. With seating for up to 5 passengers, useful luggage space and a confident driving feel, the Vitara works well for couples, small families and travellers who want a capable vehicle for regular Iceland road trips. It is well suited for routes such as the Golden Circle, Reykjanes Peninsula, South Coast and countryside drives in normal road conditions. If you want a reliable SUV that feels simple, practical and comfortable, the Suzuki Vitara is a smart choice for exploring Iceland from Reykjavik.

Why rent the Suzuki Vitara in Iceland?

The Suzuki Vitara gives you a good balance of size, comfort and road confidence. It is more spacious than the Suzuki Jimny, but still compact enough to feel easy in the city and on narrower roads. It is a strong fit for travellers who want extra confidence in changing weather, a higher seating position and enough space for passengers and luggage. For classic day trips, longer sightseeing routes and regular Iceland travel roads, the Vitara is a practical all-round SUV.

Interior and space

Inside, the Suzuki Vitara offers a comfortable cabin with room for up to 5 passengers. It has more practical luggage space than smaller compact cars, making it a better fit for travellers with suitcases, outdoor clothing or extra bags. The higher seating position gives good visibility, while the simple layout makes the Vitara easy to enjoy on both short city drives and longer road trips outside Reykjavik.
