Not so much suzuki but a common problem with new-er cars are the ECT (electic coolant temp sensor) reading wrong telling the computer that it is really really cold at idle and start up causing extra fuel to be dumped in to warm it up.

On the 2.0 vitara engine I have heard through the grape vine that the dirty throttle bodys and or the mass air can cause bad fuel consumption.
