Vauxhall Grandland review

The Grandland offers a similar blend of comfort and practicality as the Peugeot 3008 on which it’s based, but there are better all-rounders in this class

How we test cars

It’s hard to pin down exactly when the term "glow up" became mainstream, but like Matthew Lewis – the actor who played Harry Potter’s Neville Longbottom – the Vauxhall Grandland can now be added to the list of examples.

You see, the latest version has seemingly gone from traditional family SUV to something a little more space age, getting styling inspired by the Vauxhall Experimental concept car, bigger dimensions and a new interior that’s fit for a flagship model.

On top of that, the engine line-up has changed, with the Grandland now available with a variety of electrified options. That means a mild hybrid (MHEV), a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) and an electric version (which you can read more about in our Vauxhall Grandland Electric review).

That’s all well and good but, in the past, the Grandland’s stumbling block has been going up against the closely-related Peugeot 3008 and a range of impressive family SUVs, including the Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage and Nissan Qashqai. Is that about to change? Let’s find out…

Verdict

With plenty of standard equipment, a pleasant-looking interior and a price tag that undercuts most rivals, the Grandland has plenty of appeal. It’s hard to ignore the Kia Sportage, though, which isn’t much more expensive but is more practical, more comfortable and even better inside. We’d stick to the entry-level trims, so Griffin if you want the mild hybrid or Design if you want the PHEV.

What's new?

• August 2026: We get our hands on the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) for the first time
• April 2026: Vauxhall adds new Griffin trim with more equipment but cheaper price tag
• April 2024: Latest Grandland SUV revealed, with a choice of hybrid, plug-in hybrid and all-electric power, plus three trim levels

Pros

• Plenty of standard equipment
• Lots of physical controls inside
• Great reliability rating

Cons

• Rivals are better to drive
• MG HS PHEV has a much longer electric range
• Kia Sportage is a better all-rounder

Trims available

Ultimate

This top-spec trim comes with all the bells and whistles but isn’t particularly cheap. It adds a head-up display (HUD), a heated windscreen, an upgraded stereo system and 20in alloys (if you go for the plug-in hybrid). 

GS

Mid-spec GS trim gives you even more equipment, adding styling tweaks inside and out, an upgraded infotainment system and tinted rear windows. 

Griffin

Despite costing less than Design trim, you actually get more standard equipment with the new Griffin trim. That kit includes a heated steering wheel, heated front seats and more manual adjustment for the driver’s seat. Just bear in mind that you can only have the mild hybrid or electric Grandland in this trim.

Performance & drive

What it's like to drive, and how quiet it is

Strengths

• PHEV has a decent electric range
• Both versions have plenty of power
• Controlled high speed ride

Weaknesses

• Brake pedal lacks responsiveness
• Rivals are better to drive
• 7.4kW charging is an optional extra

How fast is it and which engine is best?

If you want your Vauxhall Grandland to be powered by petrol, you have two different variants to choose from, starting with the mild hybrid. It has a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a 48V hybrid system, and the 143bhp output is good for 0-62mph in 10.2sec. 

advertisement

scroll for more

You can drive the mild hybrid Grandland on electric-only power for short periods at low speeds, something that should help to keep your fuel bills down if you drive around town a lot. Just bear in mind that regular hybrid car rivals such as the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage can go further on electricity without needing to be plugged in. 

If you don’t mind plugging in and a long electric range is important to you, you’ll want the PHEV. That version combines a 1.6-litre petrol engine with an electric motor and an electric battery, giving you a total of 222bhp. As a result, it’ll officially get from 0-62mph in 7.8sec – a difference that you can feel because the PHEV gives you more power instantly. 

Its 17.9kWh (usable capacity) battery also means that it’ll officially travel up to 50 miles on electricity alone. That’s the same as the closely-related Peugeot 3008 PHEV, further than PHEV versions of the Sportage and Tucson, but not a patch on the MG HS PHEV, which can officially manage up to 75 miles (a number that we’ve almost matched in the real world).

scroll for more

When you need to charge the Grandland’s battery, it has a standard maximum charging rate of 3.7kW and will take five hours and 30 minutes to get from 0-100% on a 7kW home wallbox. You can, however, increase that maximum rate to 7.4kW if you add the optional upgraded onboard charger, decreasing that time to two hours and 55 minutes.  

Is it agile and is the ride comfortable?

With the suspension being on the firmer side of things and every version getting large 19in wheels, you might expect the Grandland to ride quite poorly. Luckily, and for the most part, that isn’t the case.

You see, the firm ride helps to give the Grandland a good level of stability and control as you drive along, keeping the body upright over undulating roads better than softer rivals including the Citroën C5 Aircross. That’s especially true at motorway speeds, where the Grandland is a fairly refined cruiser.

It's not perfect though. While it doesn’t thud through potholes and imperfections, you’re more aware of them than you would be in the Kia Sportage, and you can feel more vibrations through the steering wheel as you drive along. It’s far from uncomfortable, but it isn’t as relaxing as slightly softer rivals.

advertisement

scroll for more

While the Grandland's firm suspension does a decent job of containing body movements over undulating roads, it's not very involving. That’s largely due to the steering, which feels light and lacks feedback in any driving mode, including Sport.

If you want something that's fun to drive and dynamic on a country road, the Grandland is ultimately not the answer – ideally you'll want to take a look at the BMW X1 or Cupra Formentor.

Is it quiet and how easy is it to drive smoothly?

Every Grandland comes with a dual-clutch automatic gearbox, but the mild hybrid gets six gears and the PHEV gets seven. Both are slick and smooth as you drive along, but the mild hybrid’s gearbox can be slightly hesitant to drop down a gear when you put your foot down for a burst of power. 

Providing you have some charge in the battery, the PHEV doesn’t suffer the same issue because the electric motor can step in to fill the gap as the gearbox gets itself sorted.

As you might expect, when you’re driving around in EV mode, the Grandland can cruise around town in silence, with no engine noise at all. When the engine does kick in, it’s refined for the most part, only ever sounding particularly gruff when at idle, before fading into the background as you drive along.

scroll for more

Better still, while there is some wind and road noise, especially at motorway speeds, it’s never so bad that it becomes annoying and can be quite easily covered by the radio. 

Our main demerit is that the brakes could feel more responsive, because there’s quite a lot of travel in the pedal before it starts to do anything.

Unlike its closest rivals, the Grandland’s brakes take some getting used to. However, I did find the regenerative braking system to be smooth, so you don’t have to use the pedal so much.

Tips & Advice

How to test drive a car

There’s no substitute for a test drive in a new car. Take it on a variety of roads and surfaces to ensure it measures up.

Interior

The interior layout, fit and finish

Strengths

• Interior has plenty of showroom appeal
• Lots of physical controls
• Comfortable seating position

Weaknesses

• Rear visibility could be better
• Kia Sportage has better build quality

What does the interior look like and is it well made?

We haven’t really been impressed with the Grandland’s interior in the past, but the latest version marks a vast step forward. You see, nearly every surface you come into contact with is covered with soft-touch materials and anything scratchy is hidden low down.

advertisement

scroll for more

The mix of materials goes a long way to giving the Grandland plenty of showroom appeal too. That said, there are some areas where it doesn’t feel as well-built as a Kia Sportage, and the more striking design of the closely-related Peugeot 3008’s interior has a little extra wow factor.

Is the driving position comfortable and is it easy to see out?

The Vauxhall Grandland has a good range of seat and steering wheel adjustment, and the pedals are well aligned with the driver’s seat. Most people will find it easy enough to get comfortable and you sit reasonably high up (roughly in line with Hyundai Tucson drivers, but not quite as high up as in the Volvo XC40).

Every version now comes with Vauxhall’s ergonomic seats, which is great news because they’re comfortable and offer plenty of lower back and side support. Every version gets plenty of manual driver’s seat adjustment (Griffin trim and above get adjustable lumbar support too), but that can be upgraded to electric adjustment if you go for the optional pack with top-spec Ultimate trim. 

advertisement

scroll for more

That pack will be worth considering if you want maximum comfort on long drives because, among features like heated outer rear seats, it also adds ventilation and a massage function to the front seats. 

The high driving position helps to give you a good view out of the front of the Grandland, and slim windscreen pillars mean you can see plenty when negotiating junctions. Rear visibility isn’t quite as impressive and, while you get a decent view over your shoulder, the shallow rear window doesn’t offer the best view backwards.

Luckily, parking is made easier by standard-fit front and rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera. Top-spec Ultimate trim makes things even easier, by upgrading the standard camera to one with a 360-degree view. 

Is the dashboard and infotainment system easy to use?

The dashboard in the Grandland is logically laid out, with separate climate control buttons that are easy to operate while you're driving. We prefer them to the touchscreen-based shortcut buttons that you get in the Peugeot 3008 and they’re much better than rivals that force you to use the infotainment system to make changes.

advertisement

scroll for more

Speaking of infotainment, the size of the Grandland’s infotainment touchscreen depends on which trim you go for, with entry-level Design and Griffin getting a 10in screen and GS and Ultimate getting a 16in one.

So far we’ve tried the bigger screen. It's clear and easy to read, and the software responds reasonably quickly to your prods. The menus are simple and easy to understand as well, plus you get a few physical shortcut buttons beneath the screen. We wish some of the icons were larger, though, because they can be quite fiddly to try and hit while you’re driving.

Both versions get a good amount of features, including DAB radio, Bluetooth, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone mirroring. While versions with the larger screen also benefit from built-in sat-nav and wireless phone-charging, plus a 10-speaker Focal premium sound system if you go for top-spec Ultimate trim. 

The Grandland’s interior has gone from quite bland to rather appealing. I especially like the soft fabric on top of the doors.

Passenger & boot space

How it copes with people and clutter

Strengths

• 40/20/40 split-folding rear seats
• Lots of interior storage
• Three adults will be comfortable in the rear

Weaknesses

• Some rivals have even more interior space
• Rear seats don’t slide or recline
• Sportage and Kodiaq have bigger boots

How much space does it have for people?

There’s more than enough head, leg and shoulder room in the front of the Vauxhall Grandland for taller adults, but bear in mind that the Hyundai Tucson is even bigger still. In fact, that rival has one of the most generous interiors in the family SUV class.

advertisement

scroll for more

Vauxhall is very proud of the amount of storage space they’ve put up front in the Grandland and you can see why, with lots of areas dotted around for your odds and ends, including large door bins, a pair of cupholders, space underneath the centre console and a deep cubby within the central armrest.

Compared with older versions, the Grandland has grown by 17cm, making for slightly more space in the rear. As a result, you have more leg room than before and more than enough for a six-footer to get comfortable. They’ll have a decent amount of head room, too. 

Middle seat passengers are treated to a small central tunnel so they have plenty of foot space, plus they get a decent amount of shoulder room when sitting between two adults.

Despite the Grandland being quite impressive in the rear, the Tucson and Kia Sportage are even bigger still, allowing particularly tall adults more room to spare and ultimately making them more comfortable over a long drive.

How much room does it have for luggage?

Regardless of whether you go for the mild hybrid or plug-in hybrid, every Grandland comes with 550 litres of boot space. It’s a practical shape, with no awkward intrusions, and spacious enough to take a buggy or a couple of large suitcases with ease.

advertisement

scroll for more

If you need a bigger boot, the Sportage offers 591 litres (587 litres if you go for the full Hybrid), while the similarly priced (and much larger) Skoda Kodiaq offers a whopping 745 litres of space in PHEV form and over 900 litres in the mild hybrid.

When you need to load long items into the boot of the Grandland, it comes with versatile 40/20/40 seats, allowing you to feed long items through from the boot without sacrificing one of the outer rear passenger seats. 

Outside of that seat split, the rear seats don’t do anything else particularly impressive, including reclining like they do in the Kia Sportage or sliding fore and aft like they do in the VW Tiguan.

I found it really useful that the Grandland’s boot floor is flush with the seatbacks, when you fold the rear seats down. It makes it easier to load big items in.

Tips & Advice

Will the car fit your needs?

As part of the test drive, fill the car with regularly-carried luggage, and make sure the family can get comfy before you buy

Buying & owning

Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is

Strengths

• Generous amounts of standard kit
• Undercuts most rivals on price
• Great reliability rating

Weaknesses

• MG HS PHEV and Skoda Kodiaq PHEV are cheaper compa
• So-so warranty

How much does it cost and what equipment do you get?

Not too long ago, the Vauxhall Grandland looked very expensive next to its rivals but, thanks to the new Griffin trim, that isn’t quite the case anymore. Indeed, while it’ll cost you more than an MG HS, it now costs around the same as the Hyundai Tucson and less than the Kia Sportage and Peugeot 3008. 

advertisement

scroll for more

You can’t have the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) in Griffin trim, pushing the price up a fair amount. Once again, the HS PHEV will cost you less money, but the Grandland still manages to undercut PHEV versions of those above rivals and the Skoda Kodiaq PHEV.

If you’re a company car driver, you’ll want to go for the Grandland PHEV because its decent electric range will lower the amount of benefit-in-kind (BIK) that you’ll pay. It’ll actually cost you less than the Tucson and Sportage, but both the HS and Kodiaq manage over 70 miles, dropping them into a lower cost bracket. 

For the lowest BIK payments, you’ll want to check out the all-electric Vauxhall Grandland Electric, which we’ve reviewed separately. 

There are four trim levels to choose from, starting with Design. As standard, it comes with 19in alloy wheels, adaptive cruise control, dual-zone climate control, rain-sensitive wipers, LED headlights with adaptive main beam and the other bits that we’ve already mentioned.

scroll for more

Now, this is where it gets a bit confusing. You see, Griffin trim comes with more standard equipment than Design trim but actually costs less. It adds some styling tweaks, a heated steering wheel, heated front seats and a 10-way adjustable driver’s seat (as opposed to six-way in the Design trim). You can, however, only have this trim with the mild hybrid engine. 

As well as changes to the styling on the exterior, GS trim adds upgraded interior materials, ambient lighting, the larger infotainment system and tinted rear windows. Ultimate sits at the top of the range, adding everything you could ever need, including a 20in alloys (on the PHEV), a head-up display (HUD), a heated windscreen, a power tailgate and the upgrades we mentioned earlier. 

Is it reliable, and how long is the warranty?

In the 2025 What Car? Reliability survey, the Grandland performed very well, claiming top spot in the family SUV category. 

Better still, Vauxhall as a brand put in a good showing, too. It managed to claim 5th out of 30 manufacturers, placing it above Kia, Hyundai, Skoda and MG – the latter of which sat at the very bottom of the pile.

advertisement

scroll for more

If anything does go wrong, the Grandland is covered by a three-year/60,000-mile standard warranty. That isn’t particularly impressive, especially when you compare it to the five-year/unlimited-mileage warranty that Hyundai offers and the seven-year/100,000-mile warranty that you get from Kia. 

How safe is it, and is it easy to steal?

The Grandland scored four stars out of five for safety when it was tested by the experts at Euro NCAP in 2025, a match for the closely-related Peugeot 3008. Both offered good protection to adults in the front and children in the rear, but lost points because they don’t feature protection to prevent occupant-to-occupant collisions inside the car or a warning that occupants have been left in the rear of the car. 

It’s worth noting that both the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage scored the full five stars, but they were tested in earlier years under less stringent testing, making it impossible to directly compare. 

Every Grandland comes with lane-departure warning, automatic emergency braking (AEB), a driver drowsiness alert and Isofix child-seat mounts on the front passenger and outer rear seats.

advertisement

scroll for more

If you go for top-spec Ultimate trim, you’ll add more safety equipment, including lane-change assistance and rear-cross traffic alert.

Buy it if...

- You want generous amounts of standard equipment 

- Having lots of physical buttons is important to you

- Having a very good reliability rating is important 

Don’t buy it if…

- You want the cheapest plug-in hybrid company car

- Great handling is important to you

- You’re after the biggest boot possible

FAQs

Is the Vauxhall Grandland a good car to buy?

While the Grandland offers good value for money, undercutting most of its rivals but still having lots of kit, it doesn’t excel in any particular area. As such, the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage are ultimately better all-rounders, even if they’ll cost you slightly more. 

Why is the Grandland so cheap?

Vauxhall recently added a new Griffin trim to the Grandland, reducing its price tag. Bizarrely, this trim costs less than the entry-level Design trim but gives you more equipment – you can’t have it as a plug-in hybrid, though. 

Is the Grandland bigger than the Nissan Qashqai?

Yes, the Grandland is bigger than the Nissan Qashqai in every dimension, which translates to more interior space.

What’s equivalent to the Grandland?

Rivals to consider when looking at the Grandland are the Hyundai Tucson and Kia Sportage and Peugeot 3008. While the plug-in hybrid (PHEV) also goes up against the MG HS PHEV.

Which Grandland is the top-spec version?

If you want the most equipment possible on your Grandland, you’ll want to go for Ultimate trim. It gets everything you could ever need but isn’t particularly cheap.
