April 23, 2024 by Jamie Edkins
Car changing is a big deal
This is the all-new Vauxhall Grandland, and it’s a radical departure from the slightly dated SUV you know today.
- New Vauxhall Grandland revealed
- Family SUV goes all-electric for the first time
- Overhauled exterior styling
- All-new interior technology
- Up to 435 miles of range
- Available to order in the summer
The new Vauxhall Grandland is here, and it’s available as a pure EV for the first time. This alternative to cars like the Skoda Enyaq and Nissan Qashqai will share parts under the skin with the new Peugeot E-3008, meaning it touts impressive range.
You’ll also be able to get the new Grandland with hybrid and plug-in hybrid engines when it goes on sale later this year.
New Vauxhall Grandland design
Today’s Vauxhall Grandland is starting to look its age, so it’s a good job that this new one has a much more modern and sleek design.
You get the latest version of Vauxhall’s ‘Vizor’ grille up front, meaning there’s a gloss black strip between the sleek LED headlights. A first for the brand is the 3D-effect daytime running lights and illuminated logo in the centre.
The new Grandland is 173mm longer than the car it replaces, which should help increase interior space. There’s also now the option of 20-inch alloy wheels, giving you an extra inch over the outgoing car.
The slim tail lights are similar to the ones found on the Astra, although that light bar with the Vauxhall branding spelled out is a new feature for the Grandland. This may share parts with the Peugeot E-3008 under the skin, however you’d never tell based on looks alone.
New Vauxhall Grandland interior and infotainment
As well as the overhauled exterior, the new Vauxhall Grandland also has a brand new cabin.
Sitting proudly in the centre of the dash is a new 16.0-inch touchscreen, which is a full 6.0-inches bigger than the display you get in the outgoing car. A digital driver’s display also comes as standard, however it’s not as neatly integrated as it is in the Peugeot E-3008.
It doesn’t have quite the same flair inside as the Peugeot either, although the design does look a whole lot more interesting than the car it replaces. It’s a clean and minimalist environment, however you do get physical switches for the climate control, something which is lacking on the E-3008.
New Vauxhall Grandland batteries and motors
It’s under the skin where you’ll find similarities to the Peugeot E-3008. The new Grandland uses that car’s 98kWh battery pack, giving it up to 435 miles of range.
That’s exactly the same as the Peugeot’s figure, and it’s almost 100 miles more than the Skoda Enyaq can manage. You can top the battery up from 10-80% in just 26 minutes from a rapid charger.
Vauxhall hasn’t confirmed exactly which motors will be available with the new Grandland, however you can expect to see the same 230hp unit powering the front wheels as the Peugeot E-3008.
New Vauxhall Grandland engines
Those who are still feeling sceptical about switching to an electric car may prefer the look of the plug-in hybrid Vauxhall Grandland. It’s a great gateway into electric motoring, with up to 53 miles of range for pottering around town and a petrol engine for added peace of mind on longer trips.
A 1.2-litre petrol hybrid will also be on offer. It has a 28hp electric motor paired to the engine giving a combined 136hp, and this is paired to a new six-speed dual-clutch gearbox.
When can I buy a new Vauxhall Grandland?
You’ll be able to order a new Vauxhall Grandland in July this year, with first deliveries expected in the autumn.
As for pricing, this hasn’t been confirmed just yet. You can expect to see an increase over the current car’s figure, with the hybrid model likely to fetch around £30,000. The all-electric model will be closer to £40,000.
