The new Grandland and Grandland Electric have been spotted testing ahead of a launch next year. The Grandland will utilise the STLA M platform from Vauxhall’s parent company, Stellantis. It’s the same platform that sits underneath the new Peugeot 3008 and electric E-3008, and has been designed from the outset to feature battery power, as well as combustion engines.
New images of a Grandland spotted testing in Germany reveal that it's a similar proposition to the current car, with family-friendly proportions and a sloping roofline. The majority of the Grandland Electric line-up will still be front-wheel drive, propelled by a single electric motor that produces either 201bhp or 227bhp depending on which battery you go for. However, an all-wheel drive version should also be available based on similar tech to that in the dual-motor E-3008.
The front end’s ‘Vizor’ design appears to have evolved to match the flush design on the Astra.

Updated spy pictures showing the Grandland winter testing. The test team has equipped this latest prototype with a new set of wheels, but unfortunately hasn’t stripped away any layers of disguise since te spy photographers last snapped the Grandland in November.
