MORE TECHNOLOGY – New standard equipment is arriving for the Suzuki Across. The Japanese SUV, available only in a plug-in hybrid version, is updated with a new navigator integrated, which adds to the navigation apps for smartphones that can be used via wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and with the new Intelligent Speed Assist system, which allows the vehicle to adjust the speed based on the limits recognized by the sensors on board. Thanks to this technology, which can however be deactivated by the driver and is added to the other systems already present on the model, the Across obtains GSR (Global Safety Regularion) approval, aligning itself with the mandatory requirements for all new vehicles envisaged by the legislation that will come into force in force during the year.
ON TAP – Confirmed the powertrain that moves the Suzuki Across which is based on two electric units, the front one with 182 HP and the rear one with 54 HP, which in normal conditions take care of turning the wheels alone. Only when you accelerate decisively or travel at high speeds does the petrol engine, a 185 HP 2.5 four-cylinder, intervene, which otherwise remains switched off. L’autonomy in mode electric starting with a charged battery is 75 kmwhich rises to 98km between the city streets, and the drums from 18.1 kWh it can be recharged in less than three hours from locations with alternating current up to 15A. The hybrid system allows you to benefit from a four-wheel drive which does not require a mechanical connection between the two axles and can work even when the combustion engine is off.
THE PRICE WILL NOT RAISE – Despite the increase in technology in the standard equipment, the Suzuki Across confirms his price of list of 55,400 euros. This price remains below the limit of 55,900 euros and therefore allows the SUV to benefit from the incentives provided by the state for plug-in hybrids, i.e. those that fall within the emissions range from 21 to 60 g/km of CO2.
