Opel Unveils Next Generation All-Electric & Hybrid Grandland SUV

Opel has unvieled the next generation Grandland SUV which is based on the Stellantis STLA Medium platform. The new model brings many design features first seen on the Opel Experimental concept car to life for the first time on a serial production model.

These features include a 98 kWh battery which enable the Grandland Electric to cover up to around 700 kilometres locally emissions-free (according to WLTP.

Behind the steering wheel, a wide and fully digital cluster provides essential information, allowing the driver to focus on driving.

Drivers also have the option of manually or automatically triggering the Pure Mode.

It reduces the content on the driver information cluster, the head-up display and the central display and ensures even less distraction when driving at night or in the rain. 

The model also has extensive array of driver assistance systems including, Automatic Cruise Control with Stop & Go function, Extended Traffic Sign Recognition, Intelligent speed adaptation, and In Crash Braking, a system with the purpose of helping avoid secondary collision in case of an accident, all come as standard. 

Opel CEO, Florian Huettl, says: “The new Grandland is a milestone for Opel. With it, every Opel without exception is now available electrically. This is a big step in our electric offensive. The new Grandland was designed and developed in Rüsselsheim and will be built in Eisenach. The relationship to the Opel Experimental is unmistakable. It offers innovations that were first seen on this extraordinary concept car. The new Grandland will therefore strengthen our position in the important C-SUV segment.”

In 2023, Opel's sales of EVs increased by 22 percent year-on-year.
