We've already seen the Grandland X, and we know that it's based on the same box of mechanical bits as the Peugeot 3008 and Citroen C5 Aircross, so what we really need to know now is what it will cost but Opel isn't telling us that, yet.
Opel is keen to tell us about the styling (cool, dynamic apparently), and the size (4.48 metres long, 514-litre boot), and the equipment levels (Lane Departure Warning, Road Sign Recognition, Hill Start Assist and Radio 4.0 with Bluetooth hands-free phone capability come as standard on all models while Forward Collision Warning with Automatic Emergency Braking and pedestrian detection, Driver Drowsiness Alert, Advanced Park Assist and the 360 degree camera are available as options).
Inside, the tech count will include a big touchscreen (something Opel has become particularly good at lately) which runs both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as a WiFi hotspot and Opel's call-centre based OnStar concierge service. There's also LED-based adaptive headlights.
Because it's based on a platform shared with Peugeot and Citroen, this Opel uses PSA Group engines - the familiar 1.2-litre PureTech (rebadged as EcoTec for Opel) petrol three-cylinder in 110hp and 130hp forms, and a 1.6-litre diesel with 120hp. There won't be a four-wheel drive option, but you will be able to spec the Peueot-Citroen 'Grip Control' traction control system, which isn't a bad substitute for all-wheel drive.
We do at least know that the Grandland X will be available to order in the fourth quarter of the year, in the run-in to the 181 registration period.
