All Grand Vitara models come standard with an advanced 2.7 liter V6 engine, with 24-valve, Dual Overhead Cam (DOHC) that develops 185 horsepower and 184 lbs-ft of torque, providing up to 3000 lbs. of towing capacity. Other compact SÚVs come standard with lesser 4-cylinder engines.
6 airbags including front and rear side-curtain airbags and front seat-mounted side airbagsSafety is not an option on Grand Vitara. With two side-curtain airbags, 2 front-seat mounted side airbags, and 2 second-generation dual-stage front airbags featuring advanced front-passenger seat weight sensing technology, deployment is prevented if the passenger weighs less than an average adult.
Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake Force DistributionAn Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) keeps the brakes from locking in panic-stop situations, allowing the driver to maintain control while steering around obstacles. In addition, Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) uses electronic controls to distribute less pressure to the rear brakes during panic-braking to prevent rear wheel lock-up.
Electronic Stability Program (ESP®)* with traction control Electric Stability Program® (ESP)* helps to keep your vehicle in control and uses an array of sensors to continuously monitor how well the vehicle responds to a driver's steering input. These sensors detect when a vehicle is about to stray from the driver's intended line of travel (oversteer or understeer), and automatically applys brakes to individual wheels reducing engine power to keep the vehicle under control. * ESP® is a registered trademark of DaimlerChrysler AG
Air conditioning with automatic climate control and micron air-filtration systemThe automatic climate control system maintains the interior temperature at the desired level. The micron air-filtration system screens out dust and pollen to keep the interior comfortable and clean.

Remote keyless entryAll Grand Vitaras feature a remote keyless entry with panic button for safety and convenience.
