pardon my ignorance, but what are auto closers? power doors na ba ang super grandia? tnx.
don't get me wrong, there are two types of door closers in the market now. both the highest KIA carnival and toyota previa model have sliding doors that (at a touch of a button) slide by themselves until the door locks.

the super grandia DOES NOT have this feature. you still need to manually pull the sliding door, but you DO NOT need to SLAM the door shut anymore. all it takes is for the latch to touch the mechanism on the door and it automatically SUCKS the door in shut. this is actually one of those small things that i think is cool. by the way, the supergrandia has 2 sliding doors that both has this feature.

another feature worth mentioning is that if you need space, the last row can be folded 50-50 and stowed like the last row of the innova.

another safety feature, it also has backup sensors that are very accurate.

hope this helps.
