Judges' comments:

"Suzuki are masters of small little cars and the new e Vitara is proof of that. Its on-paper stats are nothing remarkable but it seriously impressed the judges. Its twin electric motors gave excellent accelerations, making light work of hill starts, despite the car's diminutive size, boding well for caravanners driving on slippery surfaces."
