A digital instrument cluster and a 360-degree camera enhance the modern driving experience.
Safety & Smart Technology
The Grand Vitara is loaded with safety features, including six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, and a 360-degree camera for added security. Higher variants come with ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System), making driving safer and more convenient.
Pricing & Competition
With a starting price of ₹10.70 lakh (ex-showroom) and going up to ₹19.99 lakh for the fully loaded hybrid variant, the Grand Vitara competes with Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Toyota Hyryder, and MG Hector. However, its hybrid powertrain and exceptional fuel efficiency give it a competitive edge.
