The new Opel Grandland is arriving in dealer showrooms at a starting price of €40,936, writes Brian Byrne. The new flagship model from the German brand will be offered in both full electric and hybrid forms, the BEV actually being cheaper than the hybrid starting at €40,995.
The electric in higher GS trim will retail in Ireland from €43,763, while the GS hybrid will be €44,995. All prices are plus delivery charges.
The hybrid will arrive first, powered by a 136hp 1.2 turbo petrol engine and a 28hp electric motor. The electric car will come with rated ranges of 523km and 700km.
The car is longer and wider than the previous Grandland, and particularly offers significantly more legroom in the back.
