Opel has launched its new SUV family—the Grandland, Frontera, and Mokka—representing a major leap towards sustainability. The three models embody Opel’s ‘Greenovation’ spirit, with daring design, cutting-edge technology, and eco-friendliness. Each model boasts up to 95% reusable and 85% recyclable materials, excluding chrome features and using recycled-content materials for upholstery and trim.

Sustainable Design Philosophy

The new Opel SUVs come with an enhanced design philosophy, minimizing unnecessary body applications and substituting chrome with model names embossed.

Grandland | Opel

The Opel Vizor signature incorporates the lighted Opel Blitz emblem through groundbreaking ‘Edge Light’ technology. Intelli-Lux HD LED headlights in the Grandland are energy efficient, improving illumination while reducing energy use.

Eco-Friendly and Comfortable Interiors

Opel’s sustainability pledge is also extended to the cabin. Intelli-Seats on the Grandland and Frontera are ergonomically shaped with a central depression to ease pressure on the tailbone. Upholstery and trim panels utilize recycled PET bottle material, while steering wheels make use of vegan synthetic leather.

The Mokka features ReNewKnit™ seat covers—a mono-material suede-like fabric that eliminates the need for separation during recycling and thus waste.

Electrification and Emission-Free Mobility

Opel’s electrification strategy is reflected throughout the Grandland, Frontera, and Mokka. The customer has the choice of hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and all-electric versions, providing locally emissions-free mobility. Moreover, Opel’s support for circular economy principles guarantees battery sustainability via the ‘four Rs’: Repair, Remanufacture, Reuse, and Recycle.
