The facelifted Vauxhall Insignia will reach UK dealerships this summer, bringing subtle design tweaks, new engines and tech, and one less body style. Yes, the Insignia Sports Tourer is no longer offered in Britain, making the Insignia Grand Sport five-door liftback (simply called Insignia now) the only body style available. 2021MY Vauxhall Insignia prices start at £ 23,120 (US$ 28,450) on-the-road, which is roughly three grand more than the current model.

The automaker explains the increased base price with the all-new range of powertrains, revised tech and modified trim level structure which brings more standard kit than before. In Germany, the facelifted Opel Insignia starts at € 31,790 (US$ 34,600), including VAT.


The new Insignia is available to order now in five trim levels: SE Nav, SRi Nav, SRi VX-Line Nav, Ultimate Nav and GSi. Customers opting for the base SE Nav model get pretty much all the features an average user would ever need.

Interior highlights include a 7-inch Multimedia Navi infotainment and sat nav system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity, comfort front seats, dual-zone climate control, cruise control with intelligent speed limiter, multifunction steering wheel wrapped in leather, and 60/40 split-folding rear seats.

The standard safety kit includes automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, forward collision alert, following distance indicator, lane departure warning with lane assist, traffic sign recognition, ESP, ABS, hill start assist, tyre pressure monitoring, six airbags, and more.
