The ex-showroom prices for the 2025 Grand Vitara start at ₹11.42 lakh for the base Sigma variant and go up to ₹20.68 lakh for the top-spec Alpha Plus (O) variant.

The 2025 Grand Vitara offers multiple powertrain options: • 1.5L Mild-Hybrid Petrol: Delivers 102 bhp and 137 Nm of torque, available with both manual and automatic transmissions. • 1.5L Strong Hybrid Petrol: Developed in collaboration with Toyota, this engine produces 113 bhp and 122 Nm of torque, paired with an e-CVT transmission. • 1.5L CNG: Provides an eco-friendly alternative with commendable fuel efficiency.

Depending on the variant and driving conditions, the Grand Vitara offers a mileage range between 19.38 kmpl and 27.97 kmpl.

Safety has been a focus for this model, with all variants equipped with six airbags, ABS with EBD, electronic stability program, hill hold assist, rear parking sensors, and a reverse parking camera. While the Indian variant hasn’t yet been crash-tested under Bharat NCAP, the Japan-spec export version scored four stars under JNCAP, showing strong collision performance and preventive safety.

The Grand Vitara measures 4,345 mm in length, 1,795 mm in width, and 1,645 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,600 mm and ground clearance of 210 mm. These dimensions give it a commanding road presence, roomy cabin space, and the ability to tackle moderate off-road conditions, while still being manageable in urban traffic.

The 2025 Grand Vitara comes with a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, heads-up display, 360-degree camera, wireless charging, panoramic sunroof, dual-zone automatic climate control, LED projector headlamps, and ambient lighting. This combination of tech, comfort, and convenience helps it stand out among compact SUVs.

The Grand Vitara is suited for buyers who want a premium mid-size SUV with modern hybrid technology, strong safety features, a comfortable and tech-loaded cabin, and a commanding presence on the road. It appeals to urban families, professionals, and tech-savvy individuals who value both style and substance in a car.

The MU-X comes with a 1.9-litre diesel engine (Ddi), producing about 161 bhp and 360 Nm of torque. It is available with both 4x2 and 4x4 versions. The 4x4 version has a “shift-on-the-fly” dial for engaging high and low ranges, which means you can go from city roads to muddy off-road without needing to stop and crawl under the car.

The Isuzu MU-X measures about 4,825 mm in length, 1,860 mm in width, and 1,860 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,845 mm. The ground clearance is a strong 230 mm unladen, giving it serious capability over speed breakers, inclines, and rough terrain.

MU-X is a 7-seater. Behind the third row, boot space is 235 litres, enough for essentials. If you fold the third row, the cargo area expands

ARAI-claimed mileage is about 13 kmpl for its diesel automatic version. Assuming diesel price ≈ ₹90 per litre (or your local rate), running cost per km = 90 ÷ 13 = ≈ ₹6.90 per km.

MU-X comes with a suite of safety goodies: six airbags, ABS + EBD, traction control, electronic stability control, hill descent control, and steel underbody protection. For comfort, it has leather upholstery, automatic climate control, one-touch split fold for rear seats, good infotainment, strong interior space. If you're going off the beaten track, comfort and safety both matter — MU-X delivers.

Buy MU-X if you want real off-road presence without paying Fortuner / Hilux prices, need 7 seats, ride beyond tarmac, strong build, and don’t mind higher ownership cost. Skip it if your drives are mostly urban and fuel economy + handling are your top priority, or if you don’t have access to good service and parts in your region.
