It is only available in two variants. Powered by a 1.5-litre engine that produces 87.83 PS at 5500 RPM and 121.5 Nm at 4200 RPM in CNG mode. The motor produces 100.61 PS at 6000 RPM and 136 Nm at 4400 RPM in petrol mode.
The Grand Vitara CNG returns a claimed fuel efficiency of 26.6 km/kg. Both the variants are only available with a 5-speed manual transmission. There is no automatic transmission on offer.
