What’s it like to drive? 

Reviewer's opinion

Interestingly, the driving experience largely mirrors the exterior’s dignified but subdued appearance. The individual component parts are neither excellent nor sub-par, but the way in which they work together gives the impression of safety, security and a slight listlessness.

Interior

What is the Opel Grandland X like inside? 

While the materials and design of the interior still remain tasteful and stylish, it is in areas such as the analogue instrument cluster where the model starts to show its age. Both the base and Edition guises come with cloth upholstery, whereas the Elegance derivative benefits from leather seats.

Style

Considering that the Grandland X first appeared locally in 2018, the styling has stood the test of time as it presents as fresh as the day it debuted. Strong character lines extend the length of the vehicle and are met with dynamic three-dimensional front and rear facia designs. Both at the front and rear, a strong horizontal theme is carried through to make the vehicle appear wider than it actually measures.
