Did anyone else get a leaflet through the post with a mystery 4x4 pictured on it? Any guesses to what it was, it looks "Eastern" to me, perhaps Korean or Japanese.
Unknown 4x4
- Thread starter Lol1
- Start date
Probably the forthcoming Vauxhall Antara, as Lutz suggests.
As well as the Opel Antara in Europe, it'll also be sold as the Chevrolet Captiva (through a new Chevrolet network of dealers) in the UK and Europe. Chevrolet is the new branding for Daewoo.
It's not yet clear whether the diesel engines are the Fiat-derived units used in current Vauxhall/Opel models or newly developed engines to replace the Fiat supply now that GM isn't taking over Fiat.
It's equally unclear whether the 4wd system is a development of the ill-fated 4wd system used in Cavalier and Calibra.

Dunno what it was, that was the point of the leaflet, it wanted you to guess what it was and what you thought it might sell at. It loked a little like a cross with a Sorento,Lexus and Subaru.
Lol,Would that be the SOREXARU ? Don't know much about the new vauxhall 4x4 but I believe the Vaxhall version will have 5 seats and the Chevy will have 7.
I would hurry up and get that name registered if I was you Brian, you might just be onto something there ;o)
The Antara/Captiva will not have a Fiat-based engine. The lineup will be a 2.4 litre 4cyl. and a 3.2 litre V6 petrol and a 2 litre common rail turbodiesel from the Daewoo plant in Gunsan, Korea.
I think it is the new Ssang yong Kyron
Had a look at one at the NEC show to me it looked very well built and smart, 2ltr 135 bhp deisel engine 250 ft lb torque.
pos from BMW I think.
much better looking than the Rodius (will anyone dare buy one of them?) or the Rexton
