"Four turbocharged powertrain options will be offered initially: three petrol and one diesel. Two tunes of a 1.4-litre four-cylinder petrol – producing 88kW/220Nm and 103kW/220Nm – are teamed with a six-speed manual transmission at the budget end of the range, while a 125kW/280Nm 1.6-litre unit offers more performance when teamed with either the manual or the optional six-speed automatic.

The sole diesel is a 2.0-litre engine that generates 121kW of power and 380Nm of torque. Opel says more powerful petrol and diesel engines will be added to the line-up further down the track."

Ahk well there you go. Is like to see an OPC version of this.

So no V6 turbo option - bummer

Agree, that would be one sexy and bad ass vert

Underpowered for the size of the car imo, considering it's bigger than an A5

Should still go alright Pete...

I suppose for convertibles unless they're a specific performance model, most are made for just cruising not bruising

I think they were looking at using the astra OPC engine in it at one point too but I'm not sure if that is still the case? @guy 27

no idea. I'm hoping it will if and when it comes to Aus.

I'm sold if this has an OPC heart!
