ALLGRIP Four Wheel Drive | Suzuki Cars UK

‎

With over 55 years of experience in developing 4-wheel drive (4WD) vehicles, Suzuki is well-known for its capability and expertise in this area. Our four-wheel drive technology has evolved over five decades, focusing on driving enjoyment, peace of mind, and efficiency.

Today, that expertise comes together under the ALLGRIP name, offering advanced systems designed to keep you confident in a wide range of road and weather conditions.

ALLGRIP FOR ALL MODELS

There are different versions of ALLGRIP technology available across the Suzuki range, each designed to give you added confidence on every journey.

ALLGRIP AUTO

ALLGRIP AUTO

Swift ALLGRIP models feature ALLGRIP AUTO, giving you added peace of mind in everyday driving, especially on slippery roads or snowy surfaces.

ALLGRIP AUTO in action

With the viscous coupling four-wheel drive system, torque is automatically distributed to the rear wheels, when it detects the front wheel losing grip of the road. The best part? There are no buttons to push or levers to activate – it all happens automatically.

ALLGRIP SELECT

Available on Vitara and S-Cross ALLGRIP models, ALLGRIP SELECT puts the driver in control by offering four drive modes (AUTO, SPORT, SNOW and LOCK) that adapt the vehicle’s performance to changing road conditions. The electronically controlled four-wheel-drive system with selectable driving modes uses a simple push-and-turn dial so the driver can experience different driving modes depending on the road surfaces or conditions.

AUTO MODE

In AUTO mode, the vehicle prioritises fuel economy and uses two wheel drive by default, but if front wheel slippage is detected, the system switches to four wheel drive for greater stability.

SPORT MODE

In SPORT mode, the vehicle is optimised for sporty driving, such as on winding roads. Traction control intervention is adapted so that acceleration response is improved, and makes turning corners easier.

SNOW MODE

In SNOW mode, stability is maximised through traction control intervention and a permanent 50/50 torque split between the front and rear wheels. This makes driving through snow, unpaved or other slippery surfaces easier.

LOCK MODE

In LOCK mode, torque is distributed evenly throughout all four wheels when encountering tough surfaces. The traction control system applies braking to wheels that are spinning and prioritises torque allocation to tyres that are gripping.

ALLGRIP-e

ALLGRIP-e is the advanced dual-motor four-wheel drive system available on selected all-electric e Vitara models. By intelligently distributing torque between the front and rear wheels, it enhances traction, stability, and control across changing road conditions. The system also includes two selectable driving modes for added confidence behind the wheel.
