But thankfully for those seeking an SUV on a budget, there are plenty of new offerings coming to Tanzania, and the first of these to arrive is the Suzuki Vitara Brezza, which starts at just USD $ 24,500 - and that’s with a fair amount of equipment.

All Brezza variants are powered by Suzuki’s familiar 1.5-litre petrol engine, code-named K15B and also found in the Jimny and Ertiga. The Suzuki Brezza produces 77kW at 6000rpm and 138 Nm from 4400 revs only available in front-wheel drive format.

`The GLX also has cruise control to the standard features mix, along with keyless entry and pushbutton start, auto-dimming rear view mirror, cooled glovebox, auto windscreen wipers and a leather-covered steering wheel. Alloy wheels and available colours are the Sizzling Red and Torque Blue exterior colours with a Midnight Black roof, or the Granite Grey option with an Autumn Orange roof.
