Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara
- Premium looks: LED headlights, LED DRLs, upright SUV stance, connected tail lamps and 17-inch alloy wheels.
- Good creature comforts with features like ventilated seats, 360-degree camera, panoramic sunroof, and rear sun shades.
- Multiple powertrain options: mild-hybrid, strong-hybrid, CNG, manual and automatic transmission options and all-wheel drive.
- Super efficient: Hybrid powertrain returns more than 20kmpl in the real-world.
- Ride comfort: Excellent ride quality on all kinds of surfaces.
Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
- Comfortable 7-seater family car with usable space and practicality in all rows.
- Ride quality is comfortable over imperfections and regular speedbreakers.
- Available with a CNG: barely any difference in performance within city limits.

Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara
- Misses out on diesel engine offered in rivals like Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos.
- Boot space: Compromised boot in the hybrid variants can only accommodate medium-sized suitcases and smaller bags.
Maruti Suzuki Ertiga
- No diesel engine options: would’ve been great for efficient highway runs.
- Boot space: Strictly limited to a couple of mid-sized suitcases with all three rows up.
- No tumble and fold function for the second row: would’ve made third row ingress-egress easier.
