Opel is expanding
the powertrain lineup of its Crossland X subcompact crossover with the addition
of a six-speed automatic transmission as an option on the range-topping,
1.2-liter turbo petrol engine. The optional auto ‘box enables the Crossland X
1.2 Turbo to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.2 seconds and reach a top
speed of 198 km/h.
In this configuration, the three-cylinder direct
injection gasoline engine produces 130 PS at 5,500 rpm and 230 Nm at 1,750 rpm. Compared to the
version equipped with the six-speed manual, the automatic transmission
increases fuel consumption by 0.3 liters/100 km on the NEDC combined cycle. On
the WLTP cycle, average fuel economy is as low as 6.6 liters/100 km with
corresponding CO2 emissions of 145 g/km.
The Crossland X
powered by the 1.2-liter three-pot equipped with the six-speed automatic
transmission starts at € 23,320 (US$ 26k) in Germany. For the money,
customers also get several assistance systems as standard, including cruise
control with speed limiter and intelligent speed adaptation, hill start assist,
lane keep assist, speed sign recognition and driver drowsiness alert.
The list of
standard features also consists of multi-adjustable driver and front passenger
seats, chrome-trimmed leather steering wheel, air conditioning with footwell
heating and front and rear power windows. Also standard is the Radio R 4.0
IntelliLink infotainment system with 7-inch colour touchscreen and Apple CarPlay
and Android Auto compatibility.
As options,
customers can also equip the Crossland X with forward collision alert with
automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, 180-degree rearview
camera and automatic park assist.
