The Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara will rival other C-segment SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Volkswagen Taigun, Skoda Kushaq and MG Astor. It is worth noting that the Grand Vitara and its sibling, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder, are the only 2 SUVs in their class to offer a hybrid powertrain and optional 4-wheel-drive. It remains to be seen whether the Grand Vitara can put a dent on the sales of the Korean siblings.
