• Pros & Cons

  Pros, Cons

  Pros	Safer platform and 5-star safety rating. 1.5L Turbo petrol engine feels punchy and offers great performance. Ventilated and electrically adjustable front seats are great for comfort. Interior feels premium and in line with other high-end models from Volkswagen. The German brand appeal gives it a premium and upmarket perception.	One of the most fuel-efficient C-Segment SUVs in its segment with 20+ kmpl claimed mileage The only SUV in the segment with a proper hybrid powertrain with EV mode Affordable AWD drivetrain with Suzuki AllGrip system offers good capabilities to the vehicle Loaded with features such as a panoramic sunroof, wireless charging, wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto, 360-camera, ventilated seats, 9-inch touchscreen infotainment, and more The base variant offers a decent number of features such as ESP, hill-start assist, automatic climate control, all-4 power windows, dual-functional LED DRLs, projector halogen headlamp Comes with a factory-fitted CNG It offers a good ride quality with well-tuned suspension and good driving dynamics Backed by Maruti’s vast sales and service network The Grand Vitara benefits from Toyota's expertise in hybrid powertrains, as the hybrid system is sourced directly from Toyota
  Cons	No ADAS and 360-degree camera. Skips out on the rear seat massage function, unlike the Kushaq. Compact size in comparison to rivals could be a potential deterrent for buyers.	Due to the hybrid battery, the boot in the hybrid variants is smaller than the regular variants The use of hard plastic inside the cabin takes away the premium feel The roof liner of the panoramic roof feels so flimsy The three-cylinder hybrid engine makes a lot of noise when in petrol mode It misses on features like electric seat adjustment, rain sensing wiper, ADAS, and more The hybrid powertrain is available in two top-of-the-line variants which are a bit pricey Not as engaging as the KIA Seltos, Hyundai Creta, and Skoda Kushaq in terms of driving The engine is tuned to give mileage which feels lethargic sometimes AWD is available in a single variant with manual transmission only and with a non-hybrid engine only No turbo-petrol or diesel engine on offer
