New Zafira here in 2012



An addition to the Opel Zafira will arrive in Ireland in the spring of next year.

The Zafira Tourer due to debut at Frankfurt Motor Show in September is the first version of the third generation of the brand's compact MPV, offering more style, a more flexible seating system, and a number of driver assistance innovations.

The second row of seats can be reconfigured from three to two to provide a Lounge Seating format, previewed at recent motor shows in a concept.

Safety options include a radar-based Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Collision Mitigating Braking (CMB) constantly monitors the distance to the vehicles ahead. If the set safety distance is not observed, the system automatically reduces vehicle speed or, in extreme cases, triggers emergency braking to prevent a collision.

The current Opel Zafira will remain on offer next to the new Zafira Tourer, at a lower cost than the new model.
