The Opel Insignia Grand Sport is a great travel companion, bright and not very thirsty. However, from such a long berlinona (4,90 meters), we expected more practicality ...
La Opel Insignia Grand Sport collects legacy Emblem, a car that, despite the economic crisis and the growing success of SUVs among families, has managed to win many customers across Europe.
In our road test we have to test the version 2.0 CDTI in customization Innovation of second generation of Sedan Rüsselsheim, a voluminous but substantial "segment D". Let's get to know him together strengths e defects.
city
I 4,90 meters di Length of Opel Insignia Grand Sport our main character road test You can hear everyone in traffic: find a parking space on Sedan teutonica is not easy, and even during maneuvers you have to be careful because of the small glass surfaces, the small rear window and the lack of body protection. Luckily I Sensors front and back and television camera rear standard.
Il engine - on the other hand, it feels very good in the city: a 2.0 CDTI turbodiesel with a capacity of 170 hp. and 400 Nm of torque has already been seen on Zafira, Waterfall e Between it provides full traction already below 2.000 rpm and is almost sporty when starting off (0-100 in 8,7 seconds). Not forgetting the great response suspensions even in the deepest holes.
Outside the city
Sample tested by us Opel Insignia Grand Sport equipped with a dynamic attitude control system Flex Ride (optional at 850 euros): three modes of movementSports, Tour and normal), which guarantee ideal behavior in any situation.
In the mode Sports, for example, you can have fun: the merit of one steering a sensitive, diesel engine, especially equipped at even higher revs, and a successful chassis that makes you forget that you are driving a car almost five meters long. Only Speed - classic six-speed mechanics - has a lever that tends to get stuck during a fun ride.
шосе
Una Sedan ideal for a used grinder: this, in short, Opel Insignia Grand Sport object of our road test... Extremely quiet and very stable when changing direction at high speeds, it pampers passengers when you choose the driving mode. Tour.
Concerning "autonomy The Teutonic company claims a distance of 1.190 km with a full tank of diesel fuel, even if in reality it is impossible to reach an altitude of 1.000.
Life on board
Universality is the only discordant note Opel Insignia Grand Sport: The rear seat is wide enough to comfortably accommodate three passengers, but from a 4,90 meter car we would expect more head and legroom and more legroom. trunk larger (490 liters, which becomes 1.450 when the rear seats are folded down using two practical levers located in the compartment) and more regular shape.
head finish: the dashboard is made of good materials combined with some inaccuracy of assembly, but the style is too reminiscent of the style of the little sister Astra... We would have preferred more features.
Price and costs
La Opel Insignia Grand Sport 2.0 CDTI овации our road test It has price a little high (34.550 euro) combined with complete, but not too large equipment: if it is true that in the standard equipment we findcar magneto Android Auto Apple CarPlay Bluetooth iPod MP3 USBthen alloy wheels 18″, dual-zone automatic climate controlthen parktronic front and back with camera and me Sensors in the light of rain and rain, it is equally true that safety features can be improved.
A few examples? There is air bag front, side and curtain, attack Isofix, stabilization and traction control, lifting the hood in the event of a collision with a pedestrian and pressure control bus but other important accessories such as Adaptive Cruise Control и automatic braking paid separately (750 euros).
La Warranty only two years with unlimited mileage (legal minimum) is unconvincing, while preservation of value promises to be good considering the old lady's great success Emblem... Also very interesting consumption, especially in terms of dimensions: it is impossible to reach the declared value of 19,2 km / l, but you are always above 15 (except in the city, due to too many stops and starts), you drive normally.
safety
As we saw earlier, Opel Insignia Grand Sport it's not very generous like safety equipment but this is still the car he was able to get five stars in the raw Euro NCAP crash test.
Also cannot be underestimated when it comes to safety behavior is as agile as it is confident in turns and brakes incisors. Only visibility not the best: too much metal is used for the body and too little glass for the windows, windshield and rear glass.
