Opel Insignia 2008
Production year: 2008
No. of produced cars: Information not available at the moment.
The Insignia debuted at the 2008 British International Motor Show in London on 23 July as the Opel/Vauxhall Insignia. This reflected the Vauxhall brand that is unique to the United Kingdom. It then went on sale in European dealerships in October 2008 as a five door liftback, four door saloon, and five door estate, dubbed Sports Tourer – a departure for Opel which traditionally used the “Caravan” name to denote the estate bodystyle. The Insignia was the first production car to be based on the Epsilon II platform, which was also used on other models such as the 2010 Saab 9-5 and the Chevrolet Malibu.
