Opel unveils stunning next-generation Grandland SUV

 

Elegant and dynamic, spacious and versatile, with a fully electrified powertrain – that is the new Opel Grandland, which the Rüsselsheim-based automaker presented today. The new model embodies in series production many of the design features that first appeared in the Opel Experimental concept car. These include the 3D Vizor with the illuminated Blitz logo proudly positioned in the center and the permanently illuminated “OPEL” lettering on the rear.

BEV platform provides up to 700 km of electric range (WLTP)

The next-generation Grandland is a major step for Opel towards even more attractive electromobility. It is the first Opel to use the Stellantis STLA Medium platform, which was developed primarily for electric models. Thanks to the new architecture, the new battery pack layout with a capacity of up to 98 kWh, the new generation electric motor and energy-saving solutions such as a heat pump, the new Grandland Electric will be able to cover up to 700 kilometers with zero local emissions (WLTP).

3D Vizor, Illuminated Blitz, Edge Light Technology and Intelli-Lux Pixel Matrix HD

A new technical material gave designers a lot of freedom of action, and the impressive stance of the new Grandland is noticeable at first glance. The newcomer is 4,650 mm long, 1,905 mm wide and 1,660 mm high.

The new illuminated logo is complemented by another lighting innovation developed by the engineers in Rüsselsheim: the industry-leading Intelli-Lux Pixel Matrix HD system. It offers 51,200 elements for high-precision light beam generation, and the new Grandland is the debut of the new system. Its camera analyzes the traffic and detects vehicles in front and oncoming traffic. The Intelli-Lux Pixel Matrix HD headlights “cut out” these objects even more precisely than standard Matrix Light technology and create a much brighter and more uniform light distribution, while ensuring that other road users are not dazzled.

Spacious interior with 16-inch central display, AGR seats and clever storage solutions

Inside, the new Grandland welcomes passengers with bold, clean lines and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Architecturally, the interior layout emphasizes the horizontal motif, with lines connecting the dashboard to the doors enhancing the feeling of width and spaciousness, while the 16-inch central display, slightly tilted towards the driver, and the high center console create a sporty mood. Behind the steering wheel, the discreet, spacious and fully digital instrument cluster provides all the information needed for driving, and is complemented by the Intelli-HUD projection display, allowing the driver to fully concentrate on the pleasure of driving and keep their eyes on the road.

The interior provides a particularly engaging driving experience: Opel's ergonomic AGR seats have won numerous awards, and the new Grandland continues a long tradition of high-quality ergonomics. Certified by the “Aktion Gesunder Rücken e. V.” (“Campaign for Healthy Backs”), they offer a new comfort feature: electrically adjustable lateral support. Using two pneumatic pockets integrated into the side cushions of the backrest, this significantly improves the seat's adjustment options. In addition, the seat also provides ventilation and massage for the driver, and all the fabric used in the interior is made from 100% recycled materials.

Alternative drives, frequency-sensitive damping and a wide range of driver assistance systems

 

Customers who prefer other drive types will also find exactly what their heart desires in the fully electrified drive range. The new Grandland with plug-in hybrid powertrain (Plug-in Hybrid) provides up to 85 km of electric range with zero local emissions (WLTP), while the Grandland Hybrid with 48-volt technology offers another exciting option that creates driving pleasure while reducing fuel consumption and CO2 emissions .

Although the Grandland significantly reduces emissions, it still offers a fun, dynamic and comfortable ride. This is ensured by the shock absorbers used in the suspension with frequency-sensitive vibration damping technology. This unique technology uses a second hydraulic circuit in the shock absorber chamber to mechanically adjust the damping force depending on the frequency. In places where the suspension receives frequent (high-frequency) small-amplitude impacts, such as when driving on pavement or driving over a hatchback, the shock absorbers adapt and provide a particularly smooth ride, while during sporty, dynamic cornering or other rapid maneuvers that cause the body to tilt, the new shock absorbers provide additional stability and grip.
