The Opel Crossland is a subcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) marketed by Opel since 2017. It is also marketed as the Vauxhall Crossland in the United Kingdom, officially unveiled to the media in January 2017.[3] The car was officially shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2017,[4] and was originally known as the Opel and Vauxhall Crossland X. It went on sale in the summer of 2017. At the same time, the Opel Meriva was discontinued, as demand for crossovers and SUVs in the B-segment is continually growing at the expense of compact MPVs.[5]

The Crossland was discontinued, to be replaced with the all-electric Frontera.[6]

Overview

The Crossland is built at the Opel factory in Zaragoza, Spain. It is based on a modified version of Groupe PSA's PF1 platform, which is used by the Citroën C3 Picasso and the Peugeot 2008,[7] shared with the Citroën C3 Aircross. The Crossland X received a facelift in 2020 and was renamed to “Opel Crossland”, dropping the "X".

Powertrains

The Crossland is available with petrol, diesel and LPG engines. The petrol engines are all 1.2 litre three cylinder units, with power outputs of 82, 110 and 1300NaN0. The two higher powered versions are turbocharged, and have balance shafts. On the diesel side, the Crossland offers a 1.6 litre four cylinder engine with either 990NaN0 or 1200NaN0.

Both the 1200NaN0 diesel and 1300NaN0 petrol models get a six speed manual gearbox; the other engines come with five speed manuals. A six speed automatic is available, in conjunction with the 1300NaN0 engine. The LPG model is based on the entry level naturally aspirated petrol engine. When operating on LPG, it has a maximum power output of 750NaN0.
