Ngokukhethwa kwama-hybrid powertrains kagesi, i-2022 Astra ebuyekeziwe iyona ethuthukayo kakhulu futhi ekhanyayo kuze kube manje.

Lawa ama-Holdens akusasa esingakaze siwabone e-Australia, aphuma ecashile e-Europe namapuleti angaphambili e-General Motors (GM), kodwa achumayo namuhla ngaphansi kwabaphathi abacabanga phambili.

Akhanyayo, anesibindi futhi athembisayo, lawa ma-hatchback amasha, ama-crossovers nama-SUV avela kwa-Opel aveza idizayini entsha kanye nesiqondiso sobunjiniyela esifakwe ugesi u-Holden okungenzeka wasithatha ukube wayevunyelwe ukuba aphile.

Kunjalo, umlando wathatha inguquko ehlukile lapho, ngoFebhuwari 68, GM eDetroit ngokuzumayo yamisa isithonjana sezimoto sase-Australia esineminyaka engu-2020 - isenzo esingenakugwenywa njengoba saphinde saqeda zonke ezinye izimakethe zokushayela kwesokudla, kubandakanya i-Afrika kanye E-UK. , ngemva kokudayiswa kwe-Opel kanye nesigaba sayo sase-UK i-Vauxhall ku-PSA Peugeot/Citroen Group (manje eyiStellantis) eminyakeni emithathu ngaphambili.

Nakuba singeke sazi ngokuqinisekile ukuthi lezi zinhlobo zamuva ze-Opel beziqondiswe e-Australia, u-Holden ngokuqinisekile wayenesivumelwano ne-Groupe PSA sokuhlinzeka nge-ZB Commodore yaseJalimane ese-Insignia kanye ne-BK Astra phakathi neminyaka emihlanu yokukhiqiza iyekwa e-Australia ngo-2017.

Mhlawumbe ama-crossover amasha e-Opel/Vauxhall namaSUV adumile e-Europe angeza umfutho; mhlawumbe i-Groupe PSA ingase icabange ngisho nokulawula, isindise uhlobo lwendawo oluthandwayo ekuqothulweni. Mhlawumbe siyaphupha nje, sinethemba lokubuya kwe-Australia Own...

Kwenzeke izinto ezingajwayelekile, futhi, ngakho-ke nali umugqa wesikhathi wezimoto ze-Holden nama-SUV asuka endaweni ehlukile kuya kowezi-2020 - nge-Opel - okungenzeka ukuthi ibone ibhubesi lichuma namuhla.

I-Astra L

Cha, akuyona indlela esezingeni eliphansi, kodwa impendulo ye-Opel ye-11 yangemva kwempi ku-VW Golf kanye nenkampani. kusukela ngaphambi kokuthi u-Astra Kadett 'A' aqale unyaka u-EJ Holden aqala ukusebenza ngo-1962. Iqiniso elijabulisayo: umzala wakhe u-Vauxhall wakhiwa e-Australia eminyakeni emibili kamuva njenge-HA Viva ebhakwe uhhafu, eyashintsha yaba yiTorana edumile. uchungechunge kungekudala kakhulu.

Yethulwe kuleli sonto ukuze kudunyiswe, i-Astra L yango-2022 iyisahluko sakamuva senguquko emangalisayo ye-Opel isuka kwabalahlekelwa imali yeminyaka engama-88(!) ebuswa yiGM ukuya enzuzweni nasekuchumeni. Ngaphandle kwe-nameplate, ngaphandle, ngaphakathi nangaphansi, imoto encane, eklanywe futhi yakhiwe amaJalimane, ixosha yonke iminonjana ye-GM unomphela.

Yebo, i-Astra L isekelwe ekuthuthukisweni kweplathifomu ye-EMP2 ephinde isekele i-Peugeot 308 (e-Australia) engananani ngobugebengu, futhi ivula ama-powertrain e-PSA kukho kokubili ukuvutha kwangaphakathi nezinguqulo ezifakwe ugesi, okuhlanganisa i-plug-in hybrid kanye nezinketho ezigcwele ze-EV.

Nokho, ubani onendaba? Wonke umuntu ukhuluma ngethalente le-Opel lokuklama - kusukela ekhaleni elingunxande le-Vizor kuya kumakhilogremu abukhali, ofikayo olinganiswe kahle kakhulu uyaveva. Ubucwebe baseJalimane buphinde bubonakale kuphaneli yensimbi yesimanjemanje, eyenziwe yidijithali ngokugcwele nasezindaweni zangaphakathi ezenziwe ngomthungo ezibukeka zizintsha kakhulu.

Idizayini esezingeni eliphansi kanye nobunjiniyela obunonya u-Holden okwadingeka abambelele kubo. Emgqeni wesikhathi ka-Holden othi "Still Alive", i-Astra izilungiselela ukubuya kwenkanyezi ngo-2022. Uma kuphele.

UMoko B   

Uyawakhumbula ama-Holden Trucks? Idizayinwe ngu-GM Daewoo, ihlumela elincane le-SUV le-TM Barina lazala umzala waseJalimane obizwa nge-Opel Mokka. Kuze kube yilapho u-Holden edonsa iphinikhodi yendawo yesikhashana ku-Opel ngo-2013, abantu base-Australia bacishe bakwazi ukuyithenga nabo.

Ngokushesha sibheke ku-2021 futhi sinalokhu - i-Mokka B. Uma iqhathaniswa ne-Peugeot ka-2008 entsha ngezansi, lokhu kungaba impendulo ye-Holden ye-Kia Seltos edayiswa ngokushesha, kodwa enesitayela esiqhubekayo nesimanje ngaphakathi nangaphandle. Njenge-Astra ka-2022, ingaphambili le-Vizor linikeza i-crossover ubukhona obuhluke kakhulu emgwaqeni.

Futhi, ukukhethwa kwenkundla yesiFulentshi kanye ne-powertrain, okuhlanganisa nenjini kaphethiloli engu-1.2-litre turbocharged three-cylinder kanye nezimoto zikagesi zeMokka-e efakwe ugesi, kwenza i-SUV yezingane ibukeke yesimanje, ekwazi ukuphatha kahle kanye nokusebenza okuthuthukisiwe kokushayela.

Emuva ku-2013, i-Trax yayiyiphayona kuma-crossweight crossovers futhi ithengiswa kahle okwesikhashana; sicabanga ukuthi ukuphindaphinda kwakamuva kuzoba nemakethe elungile yomunye umugqa wesikhathi wendawo yonke u-Holden angawusebenzisa. Nakhona ihlazo elingaka, iphupho nje eliyipayipi.

Corsa F

Hhayi ngenxa "yebhadi" kodwa ngenombolo yesithupha, i-Corsa F iphuma esihlahleni somndeni esijwayele abathengi base-Australia be-hatchback ngenxa ye-SB Barina (Corsa B) enhle yango-1994 (Corsa B) kanye nokushintshwa kwayo kwe-2001 XC (Corsa C). UHolden uphinde wathengisa kafushane i-Opel Corsa D ngesizini ka-2012/3.

Ngakho-ke sikhuluma ngokufaka esikhundleni sika-Barina omuhle wakudala, kodwa othuthuke kakhulu ngobuchwepheshe kunanoma yini u-Holden ake anikela ngayo. Lokhu kungenxa yokuthi ukuthatha izintambo kwe-Opel ngemuva kwe-Groupe PSA kusho ukuthi i-Corsa F iyisizukulwane sesibili samahlumela ku-Peugeot 208, ngeshwa okwamanje akuhlelelwe ukudayiswa e-Australia. Ngokusobala, ukuhamba kwedolobha kunzima kakhulu ukuba kungaqhekezwa.

Nokho, hhayi phesheya. Impumelelo enkulu, i-Opel encane okwamanje iyimoto yesihlanu edayiswa kakhulu eYurophu, iheha abashayeli be-supermini ngenhlanganisela yayo yokubukeka kwe-brash, ukupakishwa okunengqondo kanye nezinketho ezingabizi ze-EV powertrain ngendlela ekhangayo ye-Corsa-e. 

Yebo, enye i-Opel kagesi yonke ethengekayo engaphushela i-Holden ngaphambili - isembatho okungenzeka ithathwe yi-Ioniq 5 yobuhle bakwaHyundai.

I-Grandland Serie A II

Eqinisweni, i-Opel Grandland yakhululwa eYurophu kudala ngaphambi kokuba i-Holden inyamalale, okuphakamisa ukuthi kungenzeka ukuthi yayicatshangelwe i-Australia ngesikhathi lapho okwedlule (uchungechunge lwe-BK) i-Holden Astra yayingeniswa esikhundleni.

Akuseyona into entsha, naphezu kokulungiswa okukhulu kobuso kulo nyaka, ngaleso sikhathi ngaphambi kokuba uGM adayise i-Opel Groupe PSA, njengebhizinisi elihlanganyelwe okokuqala ngqa ngo-2012 phakathi kwezinkampani zase-US neFrance ukusiza ukumaketha iToyota RAV4/Kia Sportage eYurophu nase-Afrika.

Ngakho-ke i-Grandland yayiwuphawu lwezinto ezizayo, ikakhulukazi njengoba isekelwe kuplathifomu yamanje ye-Peugeot 308's EMP2 futhi ihlobene eduze nemodeli edume kakhulu ye-3008 - imodeli ebizwa ngokuthi yonga ubhekeni wakwaPeugeot.

Uma ngempela bekunikezwa yi-GMH, izizathu zika-Holden zokulahla i-Grandland emuva ngo-2017 ngokungangabazeki zizosebenza - mhlawumbe zizobiza kakhulu - kodwa kunzima ukukholelwa ukuthi abantu base-Australia ngeke bancamele i-Equinox yakhe yaseChevrolet. (futhi yehlulekile) esikhundleni salokho.

Uma i-Holden Grandland ingavela, izoba ngele-Series II namuhla ngekhala le-Vizor, ubuchwepheshe bokubonisa isikrini esithinta amehlo esidonsa amehlo kanye nenketho yemoto kagesi exhunyiwe ukujaha i-RAV4 Hybrid ethengwa kakhulu.
