Opel Signum facts for kids

Opel Signum

The Opel Signum was a special kind of car made by a company called Opel. It was like a fancier version of another car, the Opel Vectra. The Signum first came out in 2003. It got a small update in 2005, but then Opel stopped making it in 2008. No new car took its place. In the United Kingdom, this car was known as the Vauxhall Signum.

What is the Opel Signum?

The Opel Signum was designed to be a comfortable and spacious car. It was built on the same platform as the Opel Vectra, which means they shared many parts underneath. However, the Signum was made to feel more luxurious and offer more space, especially for passengers in the back. It was a hatchback car, which means it had a large back door that opened upwards, making it easy to load things into the trunk.

Design and Features

The Signum had a unique design, especially its rear part. It was longer than a standard hatchback and offered flexible seating. This meant you could move the back seats around to create more legroom or more cargo space, depending on what you needed. This made it a practical choice for families or people who often carried a lot of gear.

Engine Choices

Even though the Opel Signum was not made for a long time, it offered different engine options. These engines gave drivers a choice between gasoline (petrol) and diesel power. They were designed to provide a good balance of performance for everyday driving and fuel efficiency.
