Opel Insignia Tourer Country: With four-wheel drive and off-road

Opel Insignia - This is the car for all the socialites who also love to poach off the road. Opel launches the Insignia Tourer out a gritty Country Estate, with the all-wheel sometimes you can venture a ride in the area. Off-road Opel's for the first time at the IAA in Frankfurt in September 2013 to marvel at. The price list for the terrain Rüsselsheimer might as well start at around 37,000 euros.

With the Opel Insignia Tourer Country brings out a car that quickly slide on the highway and off the asphalt sometimes can put away a few bumps. A car that is for outdoor family or the Agriculture representative who needs to reach its customers, sometimes over rough and smooth ride. This concept had already discovered the car manufacturers from Hessen bajuwarischer a car company with the Audi Allroad or the Lower Saxony with the Passat Alltrack for themselves.

In this segment the troubled Opel workers now seem to sense and bring to the fall from a wagon, which is to suggest not only by its off-road look, he could into the area, but there thanks to the all-wheel differential lock and then just technically really can. Here we have made no tender salon combo on the wheels, but a gritty types makes with a hint of front and rear underrun protection and striking front, side and wheel well in the mood for adventure. The Country Tourer hovering about two inches higher than the asphalt, as its road worthy colleagues.

For propulsion provide three powerful turbo engines, which are already used in the ordinary wagon and the sedan. The 2.0 liter petrol engine brings it to top 250 hp and a maximum torque of 400 Nm. Thus, the SIDI Turbo (SIDI = Spark Ignition Direct Injection) guarantees a burly departure. The diesel engines are two 2.0-liter models are available: the turbo with 163 hp (350 Nm) and the BiTurbo with 195 hp (400 Nm). The gasoline and diesel weaker one can connect with either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic. At 195 horsepower diesel you have access automatically to a six-speed automatic transmission.

The power is controlled electronically transferred to all four wheels. Here, the torque is distributed continuously between 0 and 100 percent between the front and the rear wheels. The torque distribution between the rear wheels does the electronically controlled rear limited-slip differential (ELSD = Electronically Controlled Limited Slip Differential). Although the official prices will be announced at market launch, you can probably assume that Opel can pay the additional off-road features something better. Thus, the small diesel starts at the "normal" cluster at 35,700 euros. Thus, the starting price for the combined site could be around 37,000 euros.
