Compare the Vauxhall Frontera vs Vauxhall Grandland
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two Vauxhall SUVs largely comes down to size and seating flexibility. The Grandland is longer, whereas you can have the Frontera with an optional third row of seats. In the back of both, you will find enough room for a six-foot passenger to sit behind a six-foot driver, though each makes fitting a child seat slightly awkward with fiddly zip-up ISOFIX mountings. Out on twisty roads, both control their body roll fairly well through corners. Long motorway trips bring a bit of tyre noise in either car, but while the Grandland includes adaptive cruise control as standard, the Frontera cannot be had with it at all.
