well, so you're only choosing between the grand vitara & crv? hmmmm... crv maybe is better in performance but the appearance of the grand vitara is better to that of the crv...

if your options are open, try the ford explorer, chevrolet trailblazer, chevrolet captiva, toyota rav 4, gmc envoy... these are also 5 seater SUVs (except for the ford explorer which is 7 seater)...
