2012 Opel Zafira Tourer - Click above for high-res image gallery
The 2
012 Opel Zafira Tourer has broken cover ahead of its
Frankfurt Motor Show debut. Sporting what Opel calls a blend of "functionality and wellness," Opel hopes the Zafira will land at the top of the MPV heap.
To that end, Opel has weighed the people mover down with features and made its interior extremely adaptable. According to
Opel, the third-row seats still fold flat to the car's floor, but now work in concert with second-row seats that can be folded and moved around the cabin at will. The second row now features three independent seats, as opposed to a bench, and each seat can slide back and forth over a total of 210 millimeters.
Underneath the Zafira's sleeker, redesigned skin, the car's wheelbase and track width have both grown by a few inches to make people hauling a more comfortable, more stable and safer operation. The suspension has been reworked, too, to be lighter and less intrusive, giving the Tourer more interior space.
Sending power through the improved chassis are three 2.0-liter CDTI diesel options. The four-cylinder diesel mills come in 110-, 130- and 165-horsepower options. If you must have a gas powerplant, the Zafira carries either a 120-hp, 1.4-liter ECOTEC four banger or a 140-hp version of the same powerplant. No matter what engine you choose, you can have either a six-speed stick or six-speed automatic. To hear all the goods straight from the horse's mouth, check out Opel's press release
after the jump, where you'll also find a video.
