About the Car

2020 Suzuki Across PHEV

  • Across Plug-in represents Suzuki’s entry into the plug-in hybrid SUV segment;

  • Suzuki Across Plug-in is the most competitive in the PHEV segment: cutting-edge technology, high electric range and level 2 autonomous driving;

  • With 18.1 kWh batteries, it guarantees an electric range of up to 98 km in urban driving;

  • The high efficiency heat engine uses the Atkinson-Miller cycle;

  • The Top version is added with the same technical equipment as the Yoru version, available starting from € 46,900, thanks to state incentives.

Suzuki, with Across Plug-in, enters the SUV segment over 4.5 meters, setting itself as a reference point in the category of plug-in cars, which, within the Italian automotive market, record the greatest growth trend percentage in the comparison between the volumes of the first 11 months of 2020 and those of the respective period of 2019 (+ 261.5%).

Japanese point of view
Across Plug-in is undoubtedly the most complex and technological vehicle in the Suzuki range and adds an important step in the electrification work started in 2016.

Across Plug-in is not an existing vehicle adapted to electrification, but a project that was born from the outset to exploit plug-in hybrid technology in the most efficient way, the perfect synthesis of the transition to future ‘full electric’ mobility.

The dimensions (length 4,635 mm, width 1,855 mm, height 1,690 mm and wheelbase 2,690 mm) are important and the mass of 2,015 kg in running order is high. A weight justified, in addition to the size, by the safety equipment and, of course, by the presence of a lithium-ion battery pack capable of guaranteeing up to 98 kilometers in electric in urban driving.


95 g CO 2 / km: mission accomplished
Suzuki is today one of the most ‘virtuous’ manufacturers in respecting the emission limits imposed by the European Commission.

During 2020, it reached the threshold of 95 g CO 2 / km as a weighted average value of the emissions of its newly registered vehicles.

This result is all the more important when compared to the general Italian average which, in October, was 105.3 g / km of CO2.

Suzuki Across Plug-in will contribute to improving this result thanks to consumption and emissions which, according to the combined WLTP cycle, are respectively 1.0 liters / 100 km and 22 gr CO 2 / Km.


An electric 4×4
To make a plug-in hybrid vehicle truly effective from the point of view of consumption and emissions, a totally new approach to the powertrain is required, with the combustion engine passing from the main role to the complementary one to the electric drive system. Suzuki Across Plug-in technology revolves around a power unit consisting of two electric motors and an internal combustion engine.

The 306 hp (225 kW) that make up the so-called ‘maximum system power’ are a part of the maximum power of the individual units, optimized by the management system.

The presence of a high-power electric motor on each of the two axles (the front called MG2, the rear MGR) allows the Across Plug-in to move at ‘zero emissions’ with four-wheel drive, with the torque distributed according to the conditions of adherence.


It prefers electric gear
A peculiar feature of Across Plug-in is the priority electric operation, with the transition to hybrid mode that is activated automatically or at the request of the driver.

To minimize fuel consumption and emissions, using a plug-in vehicle in the best possible way, it is essential to use it electrically, taking advantage of the battery power, conveniently recharged using also a household socket.

In this way, with an autonomy that, thanks to the continuous regenerative deceleration and braking typical of the urban cycle, can reach up to 98 kilometers, Across Plug-in eliminates emissions and allows you to forget about the distributor.

There are four ways of managing energy. In EV Mode, 100% electric driving is enabled up to a maximum speed of 135 km / h and with an acceleration of 0-100 km / h in 9.2s (which becomes 6s when using the combined power of electric motors and heat engine ).

In HV Mode, the system manages the heat engine and the electric ones in hybrid mode, optimizing consumption and the progressivity of torque delivery, keeping battery consumption to a minimum.

The AUTO EV / HV mode allows the system to automatically choose the most convenient mode, always favoring the electric one but also using the heat engine if the maximum output power is required.

The CHG Mode finally allows you to recharge the battery using the heat engine. This is a function that can be very effective when, for example, you want to recharge the battery during a motorway transfer, to subsequently use the car in EV Mode and it is not possible to access an external source.

High performance heat engine
The four-cylinder 2,487 cm 3 Euro6d petrol engine with 185 hp (136 kW) and 227 Nm of torque (3,200 to 3,700 rpm) is powered by double injection and operates according to the Atkinson-Miller cycle, a variant of the Otto cycle. , which maximizes performance by exploiting an effective compression stroke shorter than the expansion stroke.

Via a planetary gear, the heat engine is connected to the 54.4 HP (40 kW) and 121 Nm MG1 electric motor which acts as a starter, a generator for battery charging and a gear ratio regulator. The 182 hp (134 kW) and 270 Nm torque MG2 main electric motor is connected in parallel to the MG1 / heat engine assembly and acts as the front-wheel drive main unit and generator when charging the battery.

The 54hp (40kW) and 121Nm MGR secondary power electric motor is built into the rear-wheel drive unit to make Across Plug-in a fully electric 4WD vehicle.

The prevalence of the electric motors, thanks to the strong drive torque available right from the start, has made it possible to simplify the kinematic chain of the gearbox, which in fact consists only of a planetary gear, a reduction gear and the differential. Referred to as the e-CVT, it has no direct descent from a traditional CVT gearbox, other than progressive, jerk-free operation.


The batteries
The electric motors are powered by an 18.1 kWh lithium-ion battery consisting of 96 cells of 3.7V each, for a total voltage of 355.2V. The nominal voltage required for the main motors is 650V, obtained with a DC / AC inverter which, together with the control unit, is inserted in a single temperature-controlled container. The battery pack is also thermally conditioned to have the best performance both in the discharge phase and in the recharge phase. This can be done in numerous ways and the 3.3 kW battery charger supplied with the cable fitted at both ends with a Schuko plug and a Type 2 can be used with a simple household socket. The cable for connection to the public columns is also supplied. The recharging time can range from 7.5h (with 10A domestic current) to about 5h with a 230V-16A column or wallbox.


Safety and autonomous driving
Level 2 autonomous driving is standard on Across Plug-in, realized through a millimeter wave radar and a monocular camera capable of capturing an image up to 50 meters away and recognizing the white line, the roadside, the light lights, vehicles, pedestrians (day and night), bicycles and signs.

These are the main safety systems:

  • “Attentofrena”, that is the automatic emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist recognition;
  • “Guidadritto”, the lane departure warning system integrated with the lane maintenance system;
  • “Stay awake”, the monitoring of sleep strokes and distractions.
  • “Non-glare”, that is the automatic management system for switching between high and low beams;
  • “Shoulder guards” and “vaipure”, systems that monitor the presence of cars in blind spots, respectively, while driving and reversing;
  • “Fermolì”, the system that acts on the brakes during low-speed maneuvering when it detects the risk of impact with objects or pedestrians.
  • “Occhioallimite “, the system for detecting and reading road signs, able to integrate with adaptive cruise control to adapt speed to the new limits detected.
  • Adaptive cruise control, equipped with the Stop & gGo function, able to bring the car to a complete stop, for example in the event of traffic jams, and to manage the restart autonomously.
