"Opel-Insignia" replaced the old Vectra model in the middle class of cars and, of course, surpassed it in all technical characteristics, interior and exterior.
Opel Insignia is a truly new level in production, as its quality, design and technology are one step higher, which gives the car prestige. A few years earlier, this car was only offered as a sedan. However, soon after the launch of the Opel Insignia, hatchback and station wagon models entered the market. In this article, we will learn the main characteristics of the Opel Insignia.
Exterior
The car looks really solid, prestigious. She has smooth curves, harmonious lines suitable for the body, and, of course, the shape of the roof emphasizes the dynamism of the look. On the other hand, the car has strongly protruding wheel arches, which giveshim a more aggressive race car look.
The shape of the body, headlights and grille all create a unique look. Manufacturers and engineers who created this car from scratch, tried to reduce aerodynamic drag. And it worked out, because the coefficient was only 0.27. This is a low figure, the noise level from the engine and air during movement is really very low. In general, the Opel Insignia turned out to be unique.
Interior
In addition to the aggressive, prestigious design, this car is the best in its middle class due to interior decoration. After all, it is offered from the factory with three different types of design, for example:
- Elegance. Dark brown plastic and trims.
- Sport. Black plastic and fabric chairs.
- Cosmo. This is the best and most expensive interior design you can get. It can be distinguished by the characteristic features of the Opel Insignia - wooden inserts and leather in the cabin. Fabric, of course, is also present, but in very small quantities. Eco-leather is used the most.
According to the reviews of motorists, the interior and exterior characteristics of the Opel Insignia are at a fairly high level.
About the engine
The weakest engine in this car was 140 horsepower. The volume was 1.4 liters.
The most powerful engine accelerated to 100 km/h in eight seconds. It had a volume of two liters and exactly 200 horsepower. It had a turbine, so it was slightly faster than its predecessor.
In the station wagon model, the Opel Insignia had a 249 horsepower engine.
Characteristics of "Opel-Insignia" do not end with the volume of the engine and its horsepower. The machine has other interesting features.
Options
One of the important optional features of "Opel-Insignia 2.0" is Forward lightning. The turning radius of the headlights can be increased up to 15 degrees, and for additional lights - up to 90.
It is the characteristics of the "Opel Insignia" that allow the car to show real tricks with light and headlights. There are many different lighting modes and functions. There are sensors that allow you not to blind drivers and switch headlight modes in time. This helps the driver to drive without distraction or inconvenience to others. This is possible thanks to a small camera that transmits information about nearby cars and turns off the high-beam headlights.
It also transmits information to the on-board computer about what is happening on the track, and its image. The camera reads the road markings not only in the Russian Federation, but also abroad. She informs the driver about the error with a characteristic signal.
In general, the technical characteristics of the Opel Insignia 2.0 are quite good, as confirmed by the owners of the car.
