When working with a six-speed manual transmission, the 2015 Opel Cascada 2.0 CDTI has an average fuel consumption of 4.9 liters / 100 km and will emit just 129 g/km, thus making it 6% more efficient than the previous variant.

In terms of performance, it will need 10.3 seconds to get from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) and will be able to reach a maximum speed of 135 mph (218 km/h).


Opel is already selling this new model and in Germany it can be had from €30,500 (VAT included).

It has a built-in 4G LTE connectivity and support for Wi-Fi hotspot with up to seven devices connected at the same time.
