Undoubtedly, nobody can hate this car, though there are a couple of misses as pointed out by Cyrus. Hope the competition will force all the auto manufacturers to produce the best ones. Whenever one reviews about safety feature, can he mention about seat belt, rear seat passengers hardly wear seat belts.
Not sure why but all reviewers are skipping the underpowered character of the car. How come mere 103 bhp is enough for such a huge car even the torque is less. It surely gonna feel sluggish when loaded fully. But for some reason every one is ok with 103 bhp
@@RAJ-km8gw I drove and this is too slow by today's means. 1.5 one you will feel tired after 50 60 kms. EV one you have to be under 80 kmph to get 27.97 mileage. Really this car is too slow. I choose skoda 1.5 .. just drive two cars back to back you won't see that 27 kmpl after driving 1.5 or even creta 1.4
I drove this car with 6 people in it excluding me (2 in the boot).. it pulled effortlessly, it was smooth, silent and very easy to drive for such a large car..it takes the bumps and hilly roads with ease... Sure its under powered, unless you are racing, you would not feel it. A perfect family car either in the city or for get aways!
Availability of every type of Engine and transmission options by the Korean Siblings (24 variants when i got my Seltos) ..

This segment is now Blood-Brawl and I'm loving it (though not loving the removal of Diesel from many manufactures)
Really appreciate the emphasis on the safety! I tell my old folks and others that the chime for the seat-belt is coming cause they haven't buckled up theirs, in my car. Hey, I tell them to buckle up if they're feeling sleepy as they don't get tossed around too! Trick them/con them, but keep yourself and your people safe. That aside, brilliant presentation! And thank you for swaying my interest in this mature riding vehicle. Might be what we get after all!
If this car is equipped with old scross' 1.6 diesel engine. Without considering its economy I would blindly go the showroom next day of its launch for booking. Becoz It leaves dust of over priced tincans with hyped fancy features
As a auto blogger you guys to should inspire people to buy more petrol then diesel. Its sad to see that even in this era people are look for diesel just for fun
@@CyrusDhabhar okay thanks. i'm curious because i want a long term (>15 year) mid-size family car & was looking towards the scorpio n 4x4 since the roads here in the places i go to are rough & little off-roady in villages. Cyrus would you recommend this car over the scorpio n 4x4 for my purpose ?
@@Dolphins_are_our_Overlords Go for the Scorpio N 4*4, Honestly speaking Maruti Cars rust to dust by the time they get 15 year old. Also Scorpio N is a Ladder on Frame vehicle, won't ride as good as a monocoque but definitely rugged and has greater service life. Not only this, you would get the advantage of Scorpio badge, don't wish to be rude but people don't associate maruti name with prestige these days (if at all that matters to you) .
@@codenametremor What a joke 😆.. For someone like you who never takes care of his car then yes it would rust in just a year. Even a titanium built vehicle will rust if its in your hand😆
Won't get a diesel again. Made a mistake with the Innova diesel. It has so much DPF issues that it's become a headache for us. So, better to go with a petrol or a hybrid.
New S cross would have been a better name, the Grand Vitara was a legend and came with a V6 Petrol motor, way ahead of its time .In terms of performance this car is nowhere ...times have changed and so have requirements ( fuel efficiency and features top priority for todays car buyer- 360 degrees camera and wireless mobile charger more important than engine performance and safety). What's the use of a chassis which doesn't have a potent engine, this car should have got at least 150 bhp turbo petrol with hybrid tech . Creta will still rule this segment only because of its 1.5L diesel .Finally , Although not crash tested By G-NCAP its unlikely it will exceed 3 star safety for the 6 Airbag version....
Is the almost 1.8 lac price difference between zeta plus and alpha plus variant justified ? HUD, 360 camera, ventilated seats and wireless charging are the only features which separates the 2 variants.
Please please please bring back rohan albal in mainstream content. Cyrus is good but not PD level good. Also we need the cinematographer and editor from the past.
Powerdrift reviews have lost its uniqueness. It looks & feel the same as any other in this game atm. I don't know if its a good or a bad thing. But there's nothing left to inbihit 'excitement' when you come across a PD review thumbnail.
Thanks bro….. someone…… finally someone has address it…….. please show it in your video too……. You also wearing it…. Thanks PDarmy…. Guys put your seat belt for rear passengers its a must!!!
@@CyrusDhabhar say 40-50 lakhs max. It would be good if you recommend for different price point, different customer request, like say within 20 lakhs, if someone wants more features, he can go for creta, but more power, then scorpio/harrier may be.
At least a 120 bhp diesel would have done wonders to this already promising car. Still, MS have come up with a great looking car in the new Grand Vitara.
The video is good as always. Grand Vitara as I remember was a rugged and luxury gypsy for me. They had all the time to make this a 4/4 luxury car but no they had to go the same design as brezza. But the features r ok. Here if I had to choose I would rather go for the toyota hyrder instead of this vehicle.
as good as the car is, it's 105 BHP engine is a let down. not everyone can afford a strong hybrid and the increased fuel economy is well offset by the extra you pay (getting extra 6-7 kmpl by paying 3-4 lakhs more makes little sense unless you drive your car for 1-1.5 L kms). the best selling variants of creta are with the 115 BHP engine which is a good mix of power and comfort. Suzuki should have worked a bit on the engine - it is surely capable of more power and torque. good car but has one major drawback. forgive me for virtue signalling here, but only stupids for whom car is about show and not engine can buy the 105 BHP variant and not feel bad about it. Compromises galore!

If Maruti comes with a 2 L turbo version of this car with AWD and automatic - it could kill the market. But like all Japanese companies - Suzuki is still stuck in its outdated perceptions of the Indian consumer’s preferences.
Best vehicle from a dumbest company...doesn't cut...pass...of course, not for the dumbest of our market, there are a plenty, so it will be, unfortunately, a great success... :))

Maruti Suzuki could have considered 1.4 turbo paired with torque converter for AWD model.

How is the suspension set up differently on this as compared to the Hyryder?

How good it will be in off road (AWD) as compared to Duster AWD?
Sir. Please advise, which strong hybrid to go for : Toyota Hyryder or Maruti Grand Vitara?
They should have given the 1.4 litre Booster Jet as an option at least, heck the 1.8 NA from Corolla . .. would have been a complete car
Cyrus plz plz one suggestion, would u choose the GV Mild Hybrid over the segment leader The Creta, plz do give your opinion.
How many AWD models or only one the Alpha AWD

Hey Cyrus like your watch, which one is that?
Amazing content buddyy
It’s an Omologato. The homage to the Ecurie 250 GTO that won the 1964 Tour De France. It’s my fav racing livery too.
This engine feels underpowered in Brezza I don't get it why maruti decided to put it in a bigger car
5:15
am i the only who felt like he was imitating or "paying homage to 😂" to Jeremy Clarkson in this part
I was actually. :)
There are more references too. Easter eggs. Find them. :)

At least a 120 bhp diesel would have done wonders to this already promising car. Still, MS have come up with a great looking car in the new Grand Vitara.
A diesel engine on this would be sone pe suhaaga,but it's just sui dhaga for now?
Where are the drag races. We miss them!
Coming soon. Very soon
best maruti was the S-Cross 1.6 diesel...
Odd. Is it just me or was this review like. . spoke so much but said so little? Like. I'm still not sure why this would be better than a top end XL6.
Toyota is providing 8 years warranty on their hybrid battery in Hyrider..What about Maruti???
This 1.5 litre engine to vitara is like 1litre engine to triber. I have used triber and therefore I know how vitara is going to be....
Old Grand Vitara is the grandest of all
Location?? Udaipur??
Yes
No difference right between this and Toyota hyryder?
They look different but otherwise, no.
Really. No doubt this time india vehicle ,, challenge to super branded car with reaginal prises.. Mera bharat badal raha hai.. Jai hind..
It is named as new gen scross , in other countries...
No that's entirely different car
This is grand vitara in other countries also

But the features r ok. Here if I had to choose I would rather go for the toyota hyrder instead of this vehicle.
So how much of the 1200km range is in reality and how much of it is in our imagination.
If you drive it sensibly, even more than 1200!
If the Vitara has to dethrone the Creta it must & should come out with an Diesel engine rivalling that of the Creta.
This is a strong product from MSIL. Good for an upgrade. If Hyrider pricing out this looks tempting.
Manual with AWD and just smart hybrid, not really good variants Grand Vitara provided
Please review triumph speed twin
I am not impressed with its power trains, Nexon,xuv300, venue has more torque and horse power,Wish if it has turbo petro like creta and seltos
No auto with awd wtf why. So the wait still continues for the budget awd auto transmission family car
It's not wider or taller than the creta
“EVER” is MARUTI at it end of life ?? Till date would have been better
No, it’s grammatically correct.

I'm awesome road ur video is worst this shows the suspension capacity
Swift engine... at creta cost.. r u kidding me? 3 cylinder engine in 1.5 ltr.. oooh comonnnn.....Maruti Suzuki not impressed at all.
It's not swift its brezza
The old Vitara actually looked butch and heavy. This one just looks like the XL6 light ass thin sheet metal
