Images of the new Vauxhall Crossland revealed

Vauxhall has released first images of the new Crossland ahead of order books opening in the U.K. later this year. Customer deliveries of the new compact SUV will commence in early 2021.

The new Crossland is the second vehicle to feature Vauxhall's new design language, after the new Mokka. Like the Mokka, the Vauxhall Crossland has dropped the X suffix in its name. 

As part of the new 'Vizor' front panel, a single module runs across the face of the new Crossland, containing LED lights and the new Griffin logo.

At the rear, new dark-tinted taillights and a new high-gloss black tailgate surface give the Crossland a wider stance. 

The new Crossland also features new front and rear skid plates, chrome door mouldings and a new range of 16 and 17-inch wheels. Sporty SRi models will feature 17-inch alloys and a black roof with a red window accent – helping the compact SUV stand out.

Inside, an 8.0-inch touchscreen provides Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, while ergonomic front seats deliver enhanced comfort and support. The rear seats feature a practical 60/40 split and slide by up to 150mm, helping customers to increase boot space from 410 litres to 520 litres. With the rear seats folded, the Crossland provides 1,255 litres of boot space. 

The new Crossland comes with the latest safety features, including Forward Collision Alert with Automatic Emergency Braking and Pedestrian Recognition, Driver Drowsiness Alert and a Panoramic Rear View Camera with a 180-degree view. 

Customers can choose from a range of advanced and efficient powertrains, including Vauxhall's latest Euro6 compliant petrol and diesel engines.

The 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine is available with two power outputs, a 81bhp or a 128bhp unit, while the 1.5-litre turbodiesel engine come with either 108bhp or 118bhp. 

The engines are complemented by chassis improvements that deliver enhanced driving dynamics and comfort. New springs and dampers for the McPherson front suspension and the torsion-beam rear axle, alongside a new steering column intermediate shaft, improve steering feel and handling.
