Opel Cascada will not be replaced
- Following the acquisition of Opel / Vauxhall by the PSA group in 2017, the French manufacturer has decided to prune the range of the former European subsidiary of General Motors, by phasing out models with low sales potential, and keep only models with higher sales potential, adapting them to PSA platforms and engines.
- This is how Opel Adam, Karl, Zafira and their counterparts at Vauxhall will be abolished in 2019-2020 and will not be replaced. On the other hand, Opel Corsa, Astra, Insignia and their counterparts at Vauxhall will be replaced by models based on PSA platforms between 2020 and 2023, depending on the life cycle of each model.
- As for the Mokka, Crossland and Grandland SUVs, they are already partly based on PSA platforms. It will of course be replaced by 100% PSA platform models, starting with the Mokka next year.
- As for the light commercial vehicles (Combo, Vivaro and Movano), they will be gradually replaced by 100% PSA platform models.
- This is already the case of the new generation Combo. This will be the case of the new generation of Vivaro in 2019.
- Remained the case of Opel Cascada, sold in the United States under the Buick brand. This convertible model, derived from the Astra, will be removed next year without replacement, which will not affect the Polish factory in Gliwice where it is produced, since less than 60,000 units of this model were manufactured over its six years of existence.
