Opel has unveiled the next generation of its popular Grandland SUV at a global premiere event in Eisenach, Germany. This completely redesigned and future-focused SUV boasts a range of electrified powertrains, a sleek new design, and a focus on advanced technology.
A Major Step Towards Electric Mobility
Opel is making a bold statement with the 2025 Grandland. This all-new model represents a significant step forward in their commitment to electric mobility. It's the first Opel to be built on the Stellantis STLA Medium BEV platform, which is specifically designed for battery-electric vehicles (BEVs).
Impressive Electric Range and Efficiency
The new platform allows for a flat battery pack with a massive capacity of up to 98 kWh. This translates to an exceptional, locally emissions-free WLTP electric range of up to around 700 kilometers (435 miles) on a single charge. That's enough to conquer most daily commutes and weekend adventures without range anxiety.
Beyond All-Electric: Catering to Diverse Needs
Opel understands that not everyone is ready to go fully electric. That's why they're offering a variety of electrified powertrain options to cater to different needs and preferences. Here's a breakdown of what's available:
- All-Electric: The star of the show, delivering an impressive electric range and zero tailpipe emissions.
- Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV): Offers up to 85 km (53 miles) of locally emissions-free driving, perfect for everyday errands and commutes, with a gasoline engine for longer journeys.
- 48-Volt Mild Hybrid: Provides enhanced fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions compared to a traditional gasoline engine.
A Modern and Stylish Design
The 2025 Grandland isn't just about performance and efficiency; it also boasts a head-turning design. The exterior features sharp lines, a bold grille, and modern lighting elements. The overall look is sleek, sophisticated, and undeniably Opel.
Interior Comfort and Technology
Inside, the Grandland offers a driver-centric cabin focused on comfort and technology. The high-quality materials and uncluttered layout create a premium feel. Drivers will appreciate the fully digital instrument cluster and the large touchscreen infotainment system.
Safety Features Galore
Opel hasn't forgotten about safety. The 2025 Grandland comes packed with a suite of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), including:
- Automatic emergency braking
- Lane departure warning
- Blind-spot monitoring
- Adaptive cruise control
These features work together to help keep you and your passengers safe on the road.
