Maruti Suzuki recently revealed their all-new Grand Vitara hybrid SUV for our market. The Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara rivals other C-Segment SUVs, such as the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, MG Astor, Volkswagen Taigun and Skoda Kushaq.

We put the Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara up against the segment-leader, the Hyundai Creta, to tell you 5 features that are missing in the Grand Vitara but present in the Creta.

1. Diesel And Turbo Petrol Engines

The Hyundai Creta comes with turbo diesel and turbo petrol engine options, along with manual and automatic transmission options. Meanwhile, Maruti Suzuki offer the Grand Vitara with mild- and strong-hybrid petrol powertrains that promise to deliver segment-leading fuel efficiency of 27.97kmpl. However, their performance figures are below par for the segment. For instance, the 1.4L turbo petrol in the Creta produces 140PS of power while the Grand Vitara 1.5L hybrid petrol engine only produces 115PS.

2. Power-Adjustable Driver’s Seat

The Hyundai Creta comes with an 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. The Grand Vitara, on the other hand, comes with a manually adjustable driver seat and it also lacks adjustment for underthigh support.

3. Rear Sun Shades

The Creta comes with factory-fitted window sunshades for rear passengers. These help in cutting harsh sunlight and also keep the cabin temperature cool.

4. Rear Headrest Cushions

The Hyundai Creta comes with headrest cushions for rear passengers. These cushions offer supreme comfort and come in handy for taking short naps on long journeys. In addition to that, these can also be removed when not in use. The Grand Vitara gets conventional headrests without cushions.

5. Electric Parking Brake

The Hyundai Creta comes with an electric parking brake whereas the Grand Vitara offers a conventional parking brake. This not only reduces the effort but also disengages automatically as soon as you start driving the car, provided you are buckled up.
