Maruti Grand Vitara Vs Toyota Hyryder

Soon after the official unveiling of the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder in India, Maruti Suzuki introduced the new Grand Vitara here in the country. Both these sister models are similar in most of the departments but have some key differences that differentiate them from each other. If you are wondering what makes them different, here is everything that you should check out.

Design And Dimensions

The Grand Vitara and the Hyryder have completely different design that gives them unique and different stance to both these SUVs. For starters, the front grille and the headlights are different and so are the DRLs that help the Grand Vitara boast an extremely bold road presence when compared to the Urban Cruiser Hyryder which offers an aggressive and sharp design.
