  • 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
  • More modern looks with the new LED DRLs and other design changes with the facelift
  • It now offers more features such as 12-inch infotainment, dual-zone climate control, surround-view camera, and more
  • The safety features have been increased with ADAS level 2. The car now has up to 7 airbags and a 5-star GNCAP safety rating, among other improvements.

  • Big design gives a solid road presence

Cons
  • 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
  • The only available powertrain is diesel; there is no petrol or turbo-petrol engine.
  • The Safari does not come with a 4WD drivetrain while some competitors offer 4WD as an option
  • Occasionally, the infotainment software exhibits lag and may cease functioning
  • The dimensions remain mostly unchanged from the pre-facelift model. This leads to a cramped feel in the last row.
  • Tata's after-sales support falls short of expectations
  • The top models seem overpriced, reaching an on-road price approaching Rs 30 lakh
