For fans of compact crossovers, this review suggests paying attention to the new model from Opel Crossland X. The car brand plans to bring seven new products to the market at once this year.

Overview of the compact urban crossover Opel Crossland X

So, Opel Crossland X is built on the basis of an identical Peugeot 2008 model. The car has a length of 4,210 mm, which is 160 mm less than that of the Opel Astra, but higher than its 100 mm. If we compare the compact crossover with the Mokka X SUV, the first one has a rather simple appearance and is intended most of all for urban use. This is emphasized by black plastic arches and wheel arches.

The engine compartment of the Opel Crossland X can accommodate both a 4-cylinder diesel engine with a power variation of 81–130 horsepower, and a gasoline unit containing three cylinders. The main competitors of the car are such models as Mazda CX-3, Ford EcoSport, Renault Captur, and of course Peugeot 2008. The novelty from Opel will cost the buyer approximately 16,850 euros.

Getting into the interior of the crossover, you immediately notice the excellent convenience of landing, and this applies to both the driver's seat and the passenger seat. The seats are very comfortable, and there is still a lot of free space around them. The rear row of seats is designed in such a way that it is able to move along the body. The luggage compartment has a volume of 410 liters, but with the seats folded down, it increases to 1,255 liters. So in comparison with the Peugeot 2008, the Opel Crossland X clearly wins here.

Of the entire range of engines, a top-end engine with a capacity of 130 horsepower can be noted. When starting abruptly on a wet surface, if the machine is not equipped with all-wheel drive, its wheels may slip. This adds more drive to management. According to factory indicators, on average, a gasoline engine will show fuel consumption at the level of 5.1 liters, although the diesel version will be more economical. For a fee, chrome lining will be installed, and it is possible to put a 6-speed semi-automatic gearbox.
