Auto mode
Prioritises fuel economy in typical driving conditions, only switching to 4WD when slippage is detected.
Sport mode
Increases cornering performance by allocating additional torque to the rear wheels. Sport mode also optimises accelerator-torque characteristics to increase engine response.
Snow mode
Provides excellent stability and enhanced traction, especially during acceleration, on snow, unpaved or other slippery surfaces.
Lock mode
This mode delivers maximum torque to the rear wheels to get you out of sticky situations such as deep snow, mud or sand. Automatically switches to Snow mode at 60 km/h.
360 view camera (GLX only)
The 360-degree view provides added safety and convenience. It uses four cameras (front, rear and both sides) to offer a variety of views, including 3D view for safe starts and top view for safer parking.
*The 360 view camera does have some blind spots and is not a replacement for safe driving. Please do not rely on this system alone. Always drive safely.
ESP®*
If Electronic Stability Programme (ESP®) detects wheel slippage when the driver turns the steering wheel sharply and/or the road is slippery, for example, it automatically adjusts the engine torque and brakes to suppress the wheel slippage and help the driver stay in directional control.
*ESP® is a registered trademark of Mercedes-Benz Group AG. The ESP® is designed to help keep the new Grand Vitara under control. However, its effectiveness depends on driving conditions and the state of the road surface. If the tyres exceed their grip limit and the wheels start to spin or skid, it may not be fully effective.
Hill hold control
A hill hold control function makes hill start easier by preventing the car from rolling backward for up to two seconds when the driver moves his or her foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal.
Hill descent control*
On tricky descents, the system is designed to automatically apply the brakes and maintain a fixed speed so you can concentrate on steering without using the brake pedal.
*ALLGRIP model only. The system works when LOCK mode is selected.
Pedestrian injury mitigating body
The structure of the Grand Vitara’s bonnet, front windscreen wiper area, front bumper and other parts absorb impacts, with the aim of mitigating head and leg injuries in the event of a collision with a pedestrian.

Airbags
The six airbags – dual front airbags, side airbags and curtain airbags help protect the driver and passenger in the event of a collision.
