Wide range of engines salient feature Total Opel family, and Antara is no exception. If we consider petrol versions, then you can find on the market cars with 4-cylinder 2.4-liter engines and V-shaped “sixes” of 3.0 and 3.2 liters. Engines 2.4, despite the same cubic capacity, were offered in different modifications: Family II (140 hp), and since 2011 - more powerful Ecotec families (170 hp). Regardless of power, these are the most popular and widespread versions of the crossover. More powerful modifications with V6 make up a smaller contingent, but their characteristics, including such an indicator as specific power, are obviously higher. are of interest and diesel engines- for the Russian market, two economical and torquey engines with a volume of 2.2 and a power of 163 hp were offered. and 184 hp
Chassis Opel Antara is a combination of MacPherson type independent suspension at the front and a multi-link independent at the rear. Front brakes are ventilated disc brakes, rear disc brakes. alloy size rims varies depending on the modification - 17 or 18 inches. The suspension is tuned for more stiffness, with little travel. The main drive is front, but if necessary, the system automatically connects rear wheels through a multi-plate clutch. The decent size of the wheelbase made it possible to allocate enough space in the back row to comfortably accommodate three adults. Trunk volume varies from 420 to 1420 liters. "Antara" can be equipped with the Flex-Fix system, which allows you to transport bicycles, using special mounts on rear bumper. This system withstands a mass of 40 kg.

However, Opel Antara will allow its owner to expand the boundaries of habitable space and move safely in any weather. The equipment includes everything you need, including a wide range of security systems. And an excellent offer on engines allows you to make a choice depending on your preferences - for the sake of dynamics or economy.
Characteristics of Opel Antara
The new configuration of Antara wins by no means due to facelift and interior upgrades. The main bet was made on gamma correction power units in the Antara Gasoline Engine and Opel Antara Diesel Engine categories, which, according to Adam Opel AG experts, should increase the popularity of this car. And it looks like they succeeded.
Opel Antara specifications. Motors and transmission.
The gasoline range of engines of the new Opel Antara is represented by power plants from the ECOTEC family. Gamma Opel Antara (diesel) also consists of two turbine units. Briefly about each:
Gas line.
The characteristics of the Opel Antara 2012 are largely determined by fresh ECOTEC gasoline engines that comply with Euro standard 5.
The Opel Antara 2.4 ECOTEC engine is a four-cylinder gasoline, all-aluminum LE 5 engine with a power of 170 hp. IN various configurations it is presented either in tandem with a 6-speed manual transmission, or in a duet with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
3.0 ECOTEC - 264 hp six-cylinder gasoline unit. He replaced the V-shaped 3.2-liter "six" High Feature, which was notable for its exorbitant appetite. This engine is only available with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Due to ECOTEC technologies in the new gasoline-dependent Opel Antara, fuel consumption (combined cycle) is 9.3 liters and 10.9 liters per hundred kilometers, respectively.
Diesel range.
According to polls and expert opinions, it is precisely diesel Opel Antara aroused particular interest among the adherents of this class of cars.
Turbocharged four-cylinder Opel Antara diesel - 163-horsepower CDTi engine with a displacement of 2.2 liters. This diesel Antara consumes 7.9 liters of fuel per 100 kilometers.
The next diesel engine installed on the Opel Antara 2012 is essentially the same advanced CDTi, but with more “charged” settings. When saving the working volume, it produces 184 horsepower and demonstrates a very modest fuel consumption. In this version of the Opel Antara, fuel consumption does not exceed 6.4 liters to overcome 100 kilometers in a combined cycle.
All engines updated range comply with Euro 5 regulations and exhibit low CO2 emissions into the atmosphere.
The Opel Antara automatic transmission line was developed by leading specialists from General Motors. The GM 6T 50 model is paired with a turbodiesel and a top-end petrol V-shaped "six". For gasoline engine LE 5 2.4 ECOTEC, the GM 6T 45 model is provided. According to the testers, these automatic boxes function so smoothly that they can quite rightly be considered one of the main advantages of the modern Opel Antara.
Characteristics of the Opel Antara 2012. Chassis and drive.
The technical characteristics, indicators of controllability, comfort and safety, corrected by the designers of the updated Opel Antara, determine the keen interest in the model from European and Russian buyers. In the eyes of Europeans New Opel Antara is a multi-tasking full-size car with increased capacity. Indeed, Opel Antara 2012 harmoniously combines the sporty look and quiet elegance of a city car. And the quite serious off-road qualities of Antara are complemented by the functionality and safety of a family station wagon.
The running gear looks like this:
Suspension is fully independent - front MacPherson struts, rear 4-link design (double wishbones). As before, coil springs, transverse stabilizers, but the settings are new. More elastic silent blocks are installed in MacPherson, the upper mount is optimized shock absorber strut and slightly increased the diameter of the stabilizer roll stability. The rear suspension arms are now equipped with hydraulic dampers, and the dampers and springs are slightly stiffer.
Tires (size 235/55 R18 or 235/50 R19) are mounted on alloy wheels. The steering mechanism is rack and pinion with a hydraulic servo booster. "Baranka" makes 2.75 turns from lock to lock. Disc brakes, ventilated, with a diameter of 296 mm. (front) and 303 mm. (behind). IN basic configuration there is not only regular anti-lock system ABS but also electronic control stability ESP With traction control TC and DCS.
In addition, in the arsenal active safety Opel Antara 2012 has a CBC cornering system that increases vehicle stability when performing a specified maneuver by reducing the pressure in the brake circuit of the wheels moving along the inner radius. And hydraulic system HBA, which independently increases the pressure in brake system when the driver applies the brakes hard. This significantly reduces braking distances car.
Drive Opel Antara controlled electronic unit. When driving in city or highway conditions, torque is transmitted from the engine only to the front wheelset. But in off-road mode, as well as when hitting a slippery road, all-wheel drive turns on automatically. In this case, the torque is equally redistributed between the front and rear axles. Thus, the power distribution is optimized, the rational fuel consumption of Antara is established and the maneuverability of the car is increased. Forced transition of the car to all-wheel drive mode, as well as differential locks are not provided.
Features Opel Antara 2012. Body and interior.
Externally, the Opel Antara 2012 is not much different from its predecessor. Full-face changes affected only the radiator grille and the shape of the bumper, in which the lower cutout of the false radiator appeared, and the anti-fog optics were located slightly higher. In the rear, in addition to the bumper, the lighting equipment has also undergone changes. Compared to the 2008 model, in the restyled Opel Antara, the dimensions of the body have matured somewhat.
Opel Antara dimensions, length - 4596 mm;
Opel Antara dimensions, width - 2085 mm;
Opel Antara dimensions, height - 1761 mm.
The wheelbase of the crossover also added solidity. Now it is equal to 2707 millimeters. The aerodynamic qualities of the model, although far from the status sports coupe, but quite acceptable for an SUV car. Air resistance coefficient -0.38. The best dynamics demonstrates Antara in performance with a 184-horsepower turbodiesel. From zero to one hundred, the crossover accelerates in 9.7 seconds. Max speed- 200 km / h.
Salon Opel Antara visually has not changed much, although inner space the car looks now quite spacious. The dimensions increased in the updated Antara had a positive effect on the useful volume of the trunk. IN updated version it has grown by more than 13 gallons and is 420 liters. And in the mode of folded rear seats, it increases by another 1000 liters. Decent business performance.
Speaking of seats. Three adult passengers can comfortably fit on the rear sofa of the Opel Antara. In addition, the driver's seat can be adjusted not only longitudinally, but also in height.
The multifunctional steering wheel is also adjustable in two modes - tilt and reach. Thanks to this, the driver of any physique can choose an ergonomically optimal posture for himself. Lever arm parking brake replaced with a button. The next interesting solution is a “secret” compartment under the glass holders between the seats. In it, in addition to a convenient pencil case, additional AUX-input and USB connectors are hidden.
The main and really remarkable feature of the interior upgrade of the Opel Antara was the sound insulation indicator. Integrated design solutions resulted in a 3 dB drop in the noise level, that is, twice from the previous figure. Not every premium sedan can boast of this.
Options.
The equipment familiar to the Opel Antara has also changed somewhat. Now the crossover is available in two guises, and one of them with an "addition": ENJOY + ENJOY * and COSMO.
Democratic ENJOY already looks quite solid. In the presence of an active safety system, climate control, power windows, heated front seats and an excellent audio system.
Extended ENJOY * in addition received an on-board computer, cruise control, parking sensors and a GID display. The COSMO version has leather upholstery, a rain sensor, xenon headlights with a washer system, heated and electrically adjustable exterior mirrors, and many more nice amenities and frills.
For the Russian market, the Opel Antara crossover is produced at the Opel assembly plant near St. Petersburg.

The fashion for all-wheel drive crossovers has swept the European automotive market in the late 1980s. Many automotive firms began to race to create cars of this type, and only Adam Opel AG went the other way.
It should be reminded to readers that at that time, in addition to it, General Motors also included Japanese firm Isuzu, which had considerable experience in creating all-wheel drive multi-purpose vehicles. In 1989, Isuzu launched the production of all-wheel drive Rodeo cars - it was this car, called the Opel Frontera, that began to be produced in 1991 at the English enterprise of the General Motors concern.
The car, although it had a completely urban look, however, in essence and in terms of technical characteristics, it remained the same traditional rural SUV with frame body, reduction gear in the transmission and a rigidly connected front axle.
Appearance on Opel market Frontera happened at a time when other European automakers were just launching the production of cars with similar technical characteristics, which allowed the company to fully enjoy the laurels of the pioneer. New jeep produced by Opel 13 years - from 1991 to 2004, a total of 285,000 cars were sold during this period.
In 2005, the firm introduced frankfurt motor show a concept car of a new crossover (this is how urban all-wheel drive cars with the appearance of jeeps began to be called) called Antara GTS, which is a three-door car with an emphasized swift silhouette, a strongly inclined windshield, with a spectacular roof with two longitudinal transparent windows, with door handles recessed flush with a body surface and retractable when approaching the driver's car with an electronic key fob ...
It should immediately be noted that the serial Opel Antara, released in 2006, has little in common with the exhibition exhibit of the same name - designers sometimes create extreme designs that can shock and thereby interest a potential buyer. Well, a car with a more conservative appearance is launched into production, which suits not only extreme people, but also the mass consumer, which was successfully demonstrated by designers under the guidance of Opel's style chief Brian Nesbit and chief designer Chris Pinn.
The production Opel Antara is a five-door all-wheel drive station wagon with load-bearing body, which has 37 percent structural elements made of high strength steel. In particular, from such material are made front subframe and front doors, providing enhanced protection for occupants in the event of an impact. Special crushable elements in the front and back parts vehicle to avoid serious consequences in collisions at low speeds. In order to protect against corrosion, a number of body elements are galvanized. The fuel tank is located in front of the rear axle - this place is most protected during rear collisions.
base engine for the car is an in-line four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 2.4 liters with a capacity of 140 liters. s., having cast iron block and an aluminum 16-valve head with two distribution and balance shafts(This motor, by the way, is produced in distant Australia at the Holden plant). There are also modifications with a 150-horsepower 2.0-liter turbodiesel with an aluminum cylinder head, equipped with a Common Rail injection system with a pressure of 1600 bar, as well as a petrol V-shaped six-cylinder engine with a working volume of 3.2 liters with a capacity of 227 liters. With. In 2007, it is planned to release a less powerful 127-horsepower turbodiesel that will be of interest to Russian buyers - it is less sensitive to the quality of diesel fuel.
The first two engines are equipped with a five-speed manual gearbox (an automatic five-speed gearbox can be installed as an option). Petrol V-twin engine is available exclusively with automatic transmission with the possibility of manual gear shifting.

In normal road conditions Opel Antara is front wheel drive car, however, to overcome moderate off-road, it is equipped with an automatically connected rear axle drive. The latter is put into operation with the help of an electro-hydraulic clutch controlled by intelligent system all-wheel drive - Intelligent Torque Controlled Coupling (ITCC). The clutch itself is located in the crankcase rear gear- at the command of the electronics, when the front wheels begin to slip, the built-in electromagnet with a two-second delay clamps the package of "wet" clutches, thereby connecting to work rear axle.
It should be noted that a similar method of distributing torque between drive axles has recently been used more and more often, displacing a scheme with permanent all-wheel drive and an interaxle differential - such are used, in particular, in the domestic "Niva" and Japanese Toyota RAV4. The fact is that the ITCC system has a smaller mass and is easily reprogrammed in accordance with the requirements of the customer and manufacturer.
Despite the plug-in rear axle, high traffic the crossover is no different - it was not without reason that quite recently such cars were unflatteringly called parquet jeeps. The destiny of such machines is asphalt and dry primers. By the way, it behaves very confidently on rough roads - the energy intensity of the suspension makes it easy to “swallow” bumps and depressions.
Both front and rear suspension- spring, independent, assembled on subframes. Front - McPherson type, rear - four-lever. Brakes - both front and rear - disc, ventilated. Steering - rack and pinion, with hydraulic booster. By the way, the power steering has a variable performance - on high speed the steering wheel becomes more “heavy” for the driver, while on a small one it acquires a pleasant “lightness”.
IN standard equipment crossover includes a full set of modern electronic systems, which includes intelligent all-wheel drive with traction control and a rollover protection system. The car is also equipped with a central lock with a remote control, air conditioning with a pollen filter, power windows, electrically controlled exterior mirrors and heating. System passive safety includes front and side airbags, air curtains to protect the head of the driver and front passenger and three-point harnesses with force limitation on all five seats.
