Opel Crossland

The Opel Crossland (known until 2020 as the Opel Crossland X) is a subcompact crossover SUV, marketed as the Vauxhall Crossland X then the Vauxhall Crossland in the United Kingdom, officially unveiled to the media in January 2017.[3] The car was officially shown at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2017 as the Opel Crossland X. 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.[4]

Chronology
PredecessorOpel Meriva

The Crossland 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.[5] The Crossland's platform is shared with the Citroën C3 Aircross. The Opel Crossland X received a facelift in 2020 and was renamed to “Opel Crossland”, dropping the "X".
