The Grandland borrows design elements from the Experimental concept car. These include the "3D Visor" front fascia with an illuminated logo, Intelli-Lux Pixel HD lighting system, an option of a dual-tone exterior colour, and illuminated brand lettering in centre on the full-width taillights (a first on an Opel/Vauxhall production model).
The interior uses 100% recyclable materials for the fabric and upholstery. There is a {{Convert|16|in|cm|abbr=on}} central touchscreen, a small fully digital instrument cluster, an Intelli-HUD head-up display, Intelli-Seat feature in the front seats certified by "Aktion Gesunder Rücken e. V." and a Pure Mode which reduces content on the three displays to eliminate distractions in certain driving conditions.
The Grandland has over {{Convert|35|L|cuft|abbr=on}} of interior storage spaces. The main highlights are the Pixel Box which has an illuminated translucent glass surface surrounding the fabric upholstery, with a wireless smartphone charger slot behind the glass piece.
It will be offered with mild hybrid, plug-in hybrid and battery electric vehicle powertrains.
