The Suzuki APV is equipped with a 1.6L engine, which generally performs well in moderate climates, but in the high temperatures experienced in Pakistan especially in places like Karachi o r interior Sindh, it can face certain challenges.

Overheating Issues: High ambient temperatures can lead to the engine overheating, particularly in traffic-heavy cities where the engine is constantly running at high temperatures due to slow-moving traffic. If the cooling system is not well-maintained, such as low coolant levels o r old coolant fluid, the engine can overheat.

Cooling System Maintenance: Regular maintenance of the radiator, coolant fluid, and fans is crucial to avoid overheating. Additionally, some owners report that under extreme conditions, the APV may show signs of engine strain like sluggish acceleration, which is often related to inadequate engine cooling.

Prevention: Ensuring that the cooling system is serviced regularly, including checking coolant levels, replacing old coolant, and ensuring the radiator is clean, can significantly improve engine performance in high temperatures.
