New Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara 2.4 now in India
Maruti is shoring up the value proposition and performance of some its models in a bid to reposition the offerings. The Grand Vitara has not really taken off in India and one of the reasons could also have been its relatively underwhelming performance.
Suzuki has now launched a new version - the Grand Vitara 2.4, which comes reloaded with a 2.4-litre VVT (Variable Valve Timing) engine that delivers a maximum power of 163.5 bhp @ 6000 rpm and a peak torque of 225 NM @ 4000 rpm. Maruti officials say that the VVT engine on the new Grand Vitara 2.4 delivers a balanced mix of power and efficiency.
The Suzuki Grand Vitara SUV range has always been popular for its style and handling as well as its off-road capabilities. Now, the new Grand Vitara 2.4 should deliver and meet the customer's need for more power.
In the Grand Vitara 2.4, an All-time, 4-mode, 4-Wheel Drive (4WD) continues to ensure effective control across terrains. Disc brakes in the rear wheels ensure superior braking and provide an additional safety feature to the Grand Vitara 2.4.
The new version is packed with many new features that add style and a bold look. The interior display in the car has been enhanced with a new Multi Information Display (MID) providing easy to read and accurate vehicle information like cruising range, average speed and instantaneous fuel consumption, besides a 'low-fuel' warning. All these add up to enhanced user convenience and driving comfort.
The stylish new front grille and bumper gives the Grand Vitara a sleeker look while the 17-inch alloy wheels, better fill out the arches and add to the visual appeal at the side. The new Grand Vitara 2.4 is priced at Rs 16.7 lakh for the manual and Rs 18 lakh for the automatic transmission (ex-showroom, Delhi).
