“The Vauxhall Grandland is a sensible, spacious family SUV with the option of efficient plug-in hybrid power, but it can’t compete with the best in class.” (Ellis Hyde)

“By offering a significant level of electrification, the Vauxhall Grandland is relatively refined and should be cheap to run for private buyers and business users. However, despite the efficiency potential the PHEV isn’t perfect and comes with compromises, even if there is a lot of kit on offer.”

“The new, simplified Vauxhall Grandland range represents better value than its predecessor, while the design updates and new infotainment tech make it more appealing. However, while the powertrain is punchy and the Vauxhall offers improvements and fair efficiency, the Grandland’s ride and its infotainment tech could be more polished.”

“A raft of visual updates have definitely freshened the Grandland and Vauxhall’s range feels more cohesive. But it’s still a mid-table player at best, neither offending nor exciting potential buyers, albeit delivering strong efficiency, respectable comfort and practicality, and some strong tech.”

“The Vauxhall Grandland comes unstuck with its ride quality. While it’s perfectly comfortable on smooth roads, it all feels a bit disconnected when the car is loaded up over expansion joints and cross axle lumps, like the various elements of the car can’t quite get themselves organised together. It’s a pity because the rest of the handling is acceptable: numb, but it turns in well and just gets on with things with a minimal fuss.”

“Don’t expect the Vauxhall Grandland to be particularly dynamically rewarding; few SUVs are. You can though, have much higher expectations when it comes to ride and refinement.
