Overall Rating
Opel Grandland:
The Opel Grandland is a compact crossover SUV produced by the German manufacturer Opel. It was originally known as the Opel and Vauxhall Grandland X, until the facelift of the first generation model when it dropped the X suffix in the nameplate. It was introduced as a replacement for the Opel Antara, and also replaced the Opel Zafira in 2019.
The second generation model was released in April 2024, it is based on the Stellantis' STLA Medium platform, shared with a wider range of other Stellantis vehicles....(Read more on Wikipedia)
B Overview:
Opel Grandland (B). With 230 Nm of torque, it offers ample pulling power. With a weight of 1525 kg, it falls in the mid‑range. Front‑wheel drive delivers efficiency and easy handling. Acceleration is relatively slow (0–100 km/h in 10.2 s). The top speed reaches 202 km/h. A sport utility vehicle offering higher ground clearance and versatile cargo space. Seating for 5 makes it ideal for daily use.
As a new generation model (B, launched October 2024), the Opel Grandland B has not yet been independently tested by Euro NCAP. However, Opel's commitment to safety, often reflected in its previous models, suggests a strong focus on occupant protection and advanced driver-assistance systems.
