  • Opel (Vauxhall) Grandland X SUV is made on the same platform as Peugeot 3008. Despite both cars having similar dimensions, this is not a classic case of badge engineering. Opel Grandland X looks and feels distinctly different from the French original. It is a spacious and stylish SUV, albeit with a modest choice of engines.

    Grandland is basically a rebadged Peugeot 3008. Grandland is even manufactured in France. But at least Grandland has its own style design-wise. Unlike those VW group cars who all look pretty much the same. Grandland exterior looks very sexy although the interior is really bad compared to 3008. Grandland will certainly be placed below 3008, as it costs less than 3008. So they will not cannibalize each other. I personally still prefer 3008. I hope Grandland will be successful too.

    Would get the diesel for 2 reasons.

    2. Reviewers from my country said the diesel has a different transmission and the shift action is a lot better.
    Of course I would test drive it to test this claim.

    Good review, fun to watch. I drove the Grandland X back to back with the C5 Aircross last week. I preferred the Grandland, the Aircross was too bouncy for me and felt weird on turn in to tight bends. I also much prefer the proper switches and buttons of the Grandland X to the touch pads and having to use the infotainment screen to change things such as cabin temperature as implemented on the Aircross.
    I was impressed with the 1.2 petrol engine, easily pulling from 1000rpm in third gear. Regarding the actual gear shift, unlike you I did not find the manual shift bad at all, maybe it's been changed since you drove the car at launch?

      this car was better than 3008 in the moose test (km77). grandland, followed by 3008 and Q5 were the best performance (in terms of stability) above all the world brands tested. I think a misplaced phone charger does not make it such a bad boaring car as you have just implied. Safety and stability is the real thing, and phone charging is another! However I did enjoy your review as always.

      It may take a while before I get to the Karoq (Skoda PR in Poland works in mysterious ways), and Ateca is on the market too long to be relevant. I'll have to wait for a facelift. There's only so many videos I can make on my own, and I have to focus on relatively new cars.

    Funny that you can have the Mokka - the smallest crossover in the Opel range - with all-wheel-drive but this feature is unavailable for both the Crossland and the Grandland. Lack of consistency. But what do I expect, it's Opel, they didn't make a decent car since the Omega.

      Funny how peugeot won dakar rally in 2016 and 2017 with TWO WHEEL cars. Funny also how a awd ads more weight, more serviceable things to the mainenance list, loses more power in power transfer, spends more fuel, leaves less space for interior of the car and all that for a 5% of buyers and with a higher price tag. What do you drive now? AWD?

    •  7 лет назад +2

      of course I drive AWD. How is that even relevant? It's nonsense to make an SUV without AWD option, and even more nonsense to offer AWD only on the cheapest SUV in your range. So this 5% of customers will go for the cheapest car instead of the more expensive one. A commercial suicide.

      Both coped easily with the weather extremes common here.
      Summer temperatures can be over 100 degrees and winter can be as low as - 40.
      Never not started or left me stranded.
      Both lasted well over 250k miles with regular maintenance and minimal repairs.
      Now I own two Buick Regals that are rebadged Opel Insignia and they are more than a match for anything Toyota or Honda makes.
