Inovev forecasts a production of 75,000 units / year for Opel Crossland X
- Opel unveiled the replacement of the Meriva MPV (B-segment) which was launched in 2010 and restyled in 2013. It is no longer really a minivan but rather a crossover strongly inspired by B-segment SUVs. This is the reason why the carmaker changed its name into Crossland X, the letter X designating all the current and future SUVs of the Opel brand. In the Opel SUV range, the Mokka is now called Mokka X and the future C-segment SUV based on the Peugeot 3008 platform will be called Grandland X.
- The Crossland X is based on the platform of the Peugeot 2008 and the future Citroën C3 Aircross, according to the GM-PSA agreements. The engines of the Opel Crossland X are not yet known, but it seems that GM will opt for the PSA engines used on the Peugeot 2008: a 3-cylinder petrol 1.2 and a 4-cylinder diesel 1.6.
- The new Opel Crossland X is 4.21m long (the Peugeot 2008 measuring 4.16m) and competes directly with the Renault Captur, Peugeot 2008, Fiat 500X and Opel Mokka X (4.28m long) which is positioned on the same market segment, which was launched in 2012 and is expected to be replaced in 2019 or 2020.
- The future Opel Crossland X will be produced in 2017 on the GM site of Zaragoza (Spain).
Inovev forecasts worldwide sales of 75,000 units for the Crossland X, compared to the 150,000 units of the Mokka X.
These two models with a quite close market positioning could eventually compete with each other.
