The Opel Crossland X is a subcompact crossover SUV, marketed as the Vauxhall Crossland X in the United Kingdom, officially unveiled to the media in January 2017.[3]

Production

The Crossland X is now built at the factory of Opel in Zaragoza, Spain. It is based on a modified version of Groupe PSA's PF1 platform, which is currently used by the Citroën C3 Picasso and the Peugeot 2008.[4] The Crossland X's platform is shared with the new Citroën C3 Aircross.

Powertrains

The Crossland X is available with petrol, diesel and LPG engines. The petrol engines are all 1.2 litre three cylinder units, with power outputs of 81, 110 and 130 hp (97 kW). The two higher powered versions are turbocharged, and have balance shafts. On the diesel side, the Crossland X offers a 1.6 litre four cylinder engine with either 99 hp (74 kW) or 120 hp (89 kW).

Both the 120 hp (89 kW) diesel and 130 hp (97 kW) 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 110 hp (82 kW) 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 75 hp (56 kW).

Sales

The car was officially shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2017. 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] In March 2018, Opel announced that over 100,000 orders for the Crossland X had already been taken.[6]
