Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

The new Grandland X is a Vauxhall body on a Peugeot 3008 chassis and engine. Since they were taken over by PSA group they have taken away features of the car that were some of the main selling points on this model. Keyless entry remote tailgate with hands free opening. Vauxhall connect/ Onstar was removed on the MY2019.5 and reintroduced on the 2020 model. The interior is nice, the front seats are very comfortable being the AGR seats. The app infotainment system without the connect is pretty much useless as you don’t get live traffic updates so still have to use either a sat nav or connect your phone and use a nav app. Billed as the large family car I would expect more room in the boot a boot tidy and a small child’s wheelchair takes up all the space in the boot. the passenger cabin is roomy Rear legroom is plenty. Storage is limited, the glove box is pathetic, but you will fit a pair of gloves in there. Auto wipers work when they feel like it, and the forward collision emergency braking doesn’t work! Unless im quicker than a computer! The Exterior paint finish is excellent and the Alloy wheel design is perfect. The ride is comfortable over distance. 4 hrs of driving and the driver fatigue warning never came on. All in all if you have a family of 4 with tots or disabilities you will struggle with this for space. I won’t be buying another and will look elsewhere next time.
