The Vauxhall Grandland is Vauxhall’s largest and most powerful SUV. It was released in 2018 with a choice of petrol, diesel or plug-in hybrid powertrains and the option of a front- or four-wheel drive. The Grandland shares its platform with the Peugeot 3008 and 5008 and competes with other mid-sized SUVs including the Ford Kuga, Volkswagen Tiguan and Hyundai Tucson.

Vauxhall Grandland updates and facelifts

A raft of technology comes as standard in the Grandland, including sensor-led driving assistants to help you avoid hazards on the road. Other features include sat nav and entertainment to make long drives more relaxing. The Grandland is a five-seater that’s practicality and spacious cabin make it an ideal car for families or for those who regularly travel with lots of equipment.

In 2018, Vauxhall launched its largest SUV as the Grandland X. Three years later, it gave the model a significant facelift and removed the ‘X’ suffix. During its facelift, the Grandland got a fresh look with an updated vizor that integrates the headlights, grille and logo onto one panel. The interior also had an update, bringing a ten-inch colour touchscreen to the centre of the dashboard. This version was the first Vauxhall to get its Night Vision technology, which detects hazards in the dark. Vauxhall released its Mk2 Grandland in 2023.

Practicality and style of the car

The Grandland has a smart and clutter-free dashboard. It also offers good storage options including a covered cubby hole on the lower part of the dashboard and cupholders for both the driver and front passenger. Some trims also add AGR seats, these offer added support and ensure both a safe and comfortable ride.

Despite having a similar footprint to its competitors, the Grandland offers one of the most spacious cabins in its class. There is plenty of head and legroom in the back. The 514-litre boot is generous for a mid-sized SUV, beating the Ford Kuga’s 412 litres and the Nissan Qashqai’s 504 litres.

With rear seats folded down, the Grandland offers a 1,600-litre boot for large luggage loads. The seats fold down in a 60:40 split, and there’s a ski hatch for particularly long items. The boot door can be opened electronically, to make loading the car even easier. The boot space in the hybrid version is slightly less at 380 litres, due to the battery being positioned under the boot.

Towing capacity depends on the Grandland’s powertrain. The 1.2-litre petrol automatic can tow up to 1,200kg, increasing to 1,400kg when paired with a manual gearbox. If you choose the 1.5-litre diesel, it can tow up to 1,300kg. The hybrid can tow up to 1,250kg. These towing capacities can handle a small caravan or trailer.

Running costs

Most of the Vauxhall Grandland models available have an annual road tax of between £170 and £180. It’s a similar rate for most Ford Kugas and Hyundai Tucsons produced around the same time.

Two versions of the Grandland have an additional rate of road tax, which adds £390 a year. Those include models with the Hybrid4 1.6-litre 300bhp direct injective turbo/electric all-wheel drive automatic powertrain, with the Elite Nav and Sri Nav trim. The Grandland falls into insurance groups 12 to 32, which again, is similar to its competitors.

How a used Vauxhall Grandland drives

There are a number of powertrains available with the Vauxhall Grandland. There is a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine, which produces 128bhp and 230Nm of torque. This powertrain is paired with either a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic gearbox, and both achieve 0-62mph in just over ten seconds. The petrol engine returns between 53.3 and 54.3mpg.

For diesel, there are two options. Pre-2018, the model was released with either a 1.6-litre or 2.0-litre unit. After that year, the diesel on offer became a 1.5-litre unit mated to a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic gearbox. The diesel engine has a similar performance to the petrol, producing 130bhp and reaching 0-62mph in around ten seconds. Of the two diesel engines released before 2018, the 1.6-litre manual unit returns between 65.7 and 70.6mph, which drops to 61.4 and 65.7mpg for the automatic version. The 2.0-litre, on the other hand, returns 57.7mpg. Later models with a 1.5-litre unit return between 67.3 and 68.9mpg.

For more fuel efficiency, you could opt for a hybrid engine, which can return between 192 and 204mpg. The most prevalent hybrid uses a 117bhp electric motor with 320Nm to support a 1.6-litre 177bhp petrol engine to produce 225mph. This combined power takes the 0-62mph time down to 8.6 seconds. The Grandland hybrid can drive up to 34 miles on electric power alone, which is perfect for shorter journeys.

For faster acceleration, look for the Hybrid4. This version adds a second electric motor to create an all-wheel drive with 300bhp. That’s all thanks to an additional 30kW of power and an extra torque boost of 166Nm. It can achieve 0-62mph in approximately six seconds and do a similar number of miles on all electric mode as the other hybrid.

Features you can expect to find in a Vauxhall Grandland

Interior

With its SUV stance, the Grandland gives drivers a raised seating position for a commanding view of the road. All seats benefit from decent head and legroom, and there’s plenty of space throughout the cabin.

All models have an infotainment screen in the centre of the dashboard; this screen is seven inches on the SE entry-level trim and increases in size with higher-level trims. It replaces most buttons, aside from the temperature dials. Phones can be connected to the screen to utilise Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. On models released from 2021 onwards, the central screen is replaced with a touchscreen for a more intuitive experience.

Technology

All Grandland cars come with rear parking sensors and some come with a 180-degree camera. The Grandland also has cruise control and lane departure warnings, to let drivers know when they veer too close to the lines on the motorway.

Safety

The Vauxhall Grandland achieved a five-star rating from Euro NCAP, with an adult occupant score of 84% and a child occupant score of 87%. A range of side and front airbags help to protect all passengers. Three ISOFIX points for securing child car seats make it suitable for young families. On top-spec models and others with an added safety pack, you’ll find autonomous emergency braking – a system that detects hazards and applies the brakes if the driver hasn’t done so.
