I have both grande and civic x, i use civic x for local city usage only, that's all it can do.
Grande i use for village trips, rough areas, I've full loaded the car and gone to places it never disappoints.
Idk about the price but grande is the hardcore one.
Unless you decide to go for a suv.

Plus I'd suggest go for white, black is wayyyy to hard to maintain. I have it i know.
I regret it a lot.

Why would you take sedan to mountains?

I mean even Vitz and Prius can go if you really want to take them. Grande too can as it's higher.

But

You're buying specially for mountains then don't get Grande.

A higher ground clearance crossover/SUV will be better.

If you want real offroading..get a used PRADO.

IF want new, then Sportage AWD is slightly better than Grande. But minor difference.
Sportage too is not meant for mountains but can do mild rough tracks. Grande too can do mild rough tracks.

I'd prefer white, black is much harder to keep clean and micro scratches start showing up much sooner so you need to get it polished often.

And for northern area use Grande's performance is best in PKDM Sedans

but for hilly areas, I'd prefer a 1.6 Altis as it has a "Dheet" 4 speed transmission that can bear some abuse too.

CVT transmissions heat up more in such conditions (though grande's the best performing in that regard too compared to Honda's CVTs)

IMO - Super White or Silver is best choice. Grande in Black look stunning but very hard to maintain.

Thats great. But budget is limited otherwise i will go for SUV and black color have any resale issue

I'm booking a 1.6 Altis myself,

before that I was looking for a used Altis but the asking prices have very less difference than new one so I've decided to go for new considering that At most I'll save 50 thousand to a lac for a used and non X kitted Altis.

but from my market research
prices of a black / graphite gray Altis in used market is about 50-100k less than a compareable white / silver one.
