Opel presented the new Fronteraa compact SUV positioned between the Mokka and the Grandlandwhich in the range replaces the Crossland. With a practical design and a large trunk, it focuses on adaptability to urban traffic and on solutions to maintain a competitive price. The main novelty is the electric propulsiontogether with a hybrid version equipped with a 48-volt powertrain, in line with Opel's electrification strategy.
The new Opel Frontera features a robust and bold interpretation of Opel's design, with an upright silhouette and a distinctive front which combines functionality with a strong and modern look.
Opel's “Blitz” logo makes its debut on a production model, positioned in the center of theOpel Vizor black which integrates i Eco LED headlights and brand identity.
The pronounced wheel arches give a solid and modern appearance, while the “wing signature” Opel adds a distinctive touch to the side view with separate LED lighting. The rear of the new Opel Frontera features an almost rear window perpendicular to the ground to maximize internal space, even if the glazing does not seem very large.
The appearance is robust, with horizontal rear lights and the written “Frontera” on the bottom. Roof bars, with load capacities of up to 200 kg, are available on request.
Cockpit, what the interior of the new Frontera looks like
The interior of the new Opel Frontera is that of a modern car, with large horizontal decorations that visually expand the passenger compartment. The digital dashboard Pure Panel integrates two 10-inch displays and a multimedia system, together with the new one.
Opel introduces an innovation smartphone station which turns your phone into a vehicle infotainment control panel, integrating with the steering wheel buttons. This solution can probably be used on basic models without multimedia displays for infotainment. The front seats offer exceptional comfort, with a function Intelli-Seat which relieves pressure on the coccyx and sustainable recycled fabrics.
Charging mobile devices is made easy with a wireless charger and multiple USB ports. Finally, regarding load capacity, the trunk allows you to stow more 460 litreswhich increases to 1,600 litres with the seats folded down.

The new Opel Frontera is based on the platform Smart Cars of the Stellantis group, shared with the Citroen C3 and future models like the Electric Fiat Panda and the C3 Aircross. Details on the characteristics of the engines are not yet available, but we can hypothesize a version 48 Volt electric and hybrid with a powertrain similar to the Citroen e-C3, with approx 113 HP and a direct current charging power of up to 100 kW.
It could differ in autonomy, estimated at around 400 km thanks to different batteries. Or it could mount the electric powertrain already available on Race, Mokka and on theAstra of 156 HP, with a 54 kWh battery. As for hybrid propulsion, it could adopt a system from 136 HP or 100 HP with a three-cylinder petrol engine 1.2 liter PureTech.
