2020 Suzuki XL7 Philippines: Specs, Features, and Pricing Overview
The Suzuki XL7: A sportier-looking Ertiga
Based on the six-seater Suzuki XL6 for sale on the market, the XL7 is essentially a beefier-looking Ertiga equipped with a larger headlight cluster including LED DRLs, a roof rail, as well as front and rear air dams. The new model is also expected to sport the same 1.5-liter K15 gasoline engine under the hood.
The XL7 is the Ertiga's gym rat younger sibling
Unlike the Indian-spec XL6 which comes standard with captain seats, the XL7 has bench-type seating on the second row, enabling it to seat one more occupant, similar to the Suzuki Ertiga. This makes sense, in order for the XL7 to better compete with other seven-seater MPVs in our market.
On the outside, the XL7 features a blacked-out hexagonal grille with the Suzuki logo resting on a pair of chrome bars running across the fascia, unlike the Ertiga that has the entire grille area rendered in chrome.
