Opel will unveil the 2009 Insignia at the London Motor Show in July. It will come to replace the Vectra which itself replaced the Ascona in 1988. It will be sold under the brands Vauxhall, Saturn and Opel.

"Dynamic performance is one of the Opel brand’s core values. In the new Opel Insignia, this defining characteristic is realized by sophisticated powertrain technology, active safety and the interface between driver and car. The Insignia’s level of comfort and environmental friendliness is unrivaled even among considerably more expensive competitors," says Alain Visser, Chief Marketing Officer, General Motors Europe.

The 2009 Insignia’s design will be inspired by the GTC concept unveiled last year at the Geneva Motor Show.
