Grand Vitara in Chennai: questions buyers ask
Does the Grand Vitara's strong hybrid get a tax break in Tamil Nadu?
No. Tamil Nadu exempts electric cars until December 2027, but the strong hybrid pays the full 18%, the same as the petrol versions.
How does the hybrid's mileage hold up in Chennai traffic?
Slow traffic is where a strong hybrid does best, since it runs on the battery more often. Maruti rates the Grand Vitara's at 27.97 km per litre, against 20.58 for the mild hybrid automatic.
Are the Grand Vitara Zeta's ventilated seats worth it in Chennai?
In this heat, yes. The Grand Vitara Zeta adds ventilated front seats and a sunroof over the Grand Vitara Delta for ₹2.08 lakh more on-road.
Does the Grand Vitara Alpha AllGrip make sense in Chennai?
Not for the city. It suits slippery hill roads such as the ghat to Kodaikanal in the rains, and it costs ₹1.65 lakh more than the front-wheel drive Grand Vitara Alpha AT.
Is the Grand Vitara's mild hybrid the same as the strong hybrid?
No. The mild hybrid petrol uses a small battery to stop the engine at signals and help it pull away, and is rated at 21.11 km per litre. The strong hybrid can drive on electric power alone at low speeds and is rated at 27.97.
