Opel and Vauxhall have revealed their first-ever mainstream plug-in hybrid, the Grandland X Hybrid4.
Shown here in Vauxhall guise, the crossover PHEV is essentially a re-skinned version of the related Peugeot 3008 GT Hybrid4.
That means there's a 200hp (149kW) 1.6-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine hooked up to a pair of electric motors (109hp/81kW combined) and a 13.2kWh lithium-ion battery pack.
All up the company claims a system power output of 300hp, equivalent to 224kW.
Opel and Vauxhall have previewed the next-generation Corsa hatchback with an official set of images showing a camouflaged prototype being put through its paces.
Set to debut sometime later in 2019, the fifth-gen Corsa is set to move to the PSA Group's 'CMP' modular platform for compact vehicles, which already underpins the new DS 3 Crossback and Peugeot 208.
Peugeot Citroen Australia has confirmed pricing and initial details of the all-new 2019 508 Fastback, ahead of its local launch 'early' in the third quarter of 2019.
Set to start at $53,990 before on-road costs, the 508 Fastback will form something of a halo product for the French brand, aiming to compete with everything from the Skoda Superb and Volkswagen Arteon to the BMW 3 Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
The updated Opel Insignia – known locally as the Holden Commodore – has been snapped by photographers this week in Europe, giving an early look as to what to expect from the mid-life refresh.
From what we can see in the images, the Commodore/Insignia has most of its changes focused around the front end, with minimal camouflage at the rear.
We're expecting the main revisions to be focused on the front bumper and grille, along with the headlights.
Peugeot has produced its one millionth 308this past week, along with the 500,000th 3008, both rolling down the production line at almost the same time.
According to the French brand, the 308 is being built at a rate of 860 vehicles per day, while the 3008 is running at over 1000 units a day. The plant is said to be running seven days a week to meet global demand.
The current generation 308 hatchback and wagon range first launched in 2013, while the 3008 was introduced globally in 2016.
