Absolutely new Opel Cascada appeared before the international public as part of the International Geneva Motor Show 2013. The name of the car is translated as a waterfall, and its platform was borrowed from astra models J. Despite this kinship, the manufacturer separated a novelty from his relative, giving it a productive technical filling, rich interior and thoughtful design. The main task of the manufacturer was to give the convertible equally harmonious appearance Both with a raised and folded roof. Otherwise, the design echoes the rest, currently relevant, models. The front is fully made in corporate style. End-hot headlights with round focusing lenses and sections of LED daytime running lights are thrown into the eyes. The radiator grille has a pentagonal shape and covered with several horizontally oriented chrome-plated ribs. Rear end It turned out more unique. I would like to mention the trunk lid, relief bumper and large stop signals connected by a chrome-plated overlay.

Dimensions

Opel Cascade is a four-seater convertible Golf Class. Despite the relationship with Astro, his dimensions Valibly differ: length 4696 mm, width 1838 mm, height 1440 mm, and wheel base - 2695 mm. Ground clearance Typical for most road models is 145 millimeters. The size of the trunk is small and varies from 280 to 350 liters, depending on the position of the roof. It is made of multilayer fabric, perfectly keeps warm and misses sounds. It is available in three different versions of execution and, thanks to powerful electric drives, changes its position in just 17 seconds, even on the go, at a speed of up to 50 kilometers per hour.

Specifications

Convertible is equipped with a family various engines, automatic and mechanical boxes of variable transmissions and exceptionally front-wheel drive.

Gasoline ruler opel engines Cascada is represented by row turbocharged fours to 1.4 and 1.6 liters. Depending on the version of the execution, they develop from 120 to 200 horse power. Acceleration until hundreds will take 9.2-11.9 seconds, and the maximum speed is 195-235 kilometers per hour. Fuel consumption will be 6.3-7.2 liters of gasoline a hundred kilometers of the path in a mixed cycle.

Diesel cascade are equipped with two-liter fours with turbocharging. Their return varies from 165 to 195 horses. Versions on heavy fuel are gaining a hundred for 9.4-10.4 seconds and maximally capable of developing 212-230 km / h. Fuel consumption will be 4.9-6.2 liters of diesel fuel at a hundred in the same mode of movement.

Equipment

Opel Cascada has a wide range of equipment. In addition to ordinary things, such as climate installation, advanced multimedia system, parking sensors and navigation, the manufacturer offers several unusual, for this class, positions. So, the seats can be covered with Nappa skin, as well as to be equipped with not only heated, but also ventilation. The safety belt is supplied using a servo, lighting has a diode stuffing, and firing safety arcs hid in the body. It is also worth noting a separate remote control that allows you to fold the roof.

Many love cabriolences and just dream of him, but not everyone is enough for him. The German company Opel decided to release for such people a relatively budget large Cascada convertible. The public was presented to the car in the 2013th year at the global exhibition in Geneva.

Convertible itself is far from the most comfortable car And it's all about the lack of roof. In this case, a soft folding roof is installed, because of which is noisy in the cabin, and in the winter it will be cold.

The manufacturer calls a convertible number one in a niche, but at the same time new car Creates the impression of a more solid car. The convertible is created on the platform, they are even similar. An Astra existed in the body a convertible with a rigid roof, this experiment was not particularly successful, which is why the novelty got a soft roof. Although the rigid top looks much better.

Cascade design


Let's consider the appearance of the car in detail, it is immediately clear that she looks like Astra and on insignia, in essence there is nothing new in the design. This coupe that got the same thing is all the same, fully identical optics, the same chrome radiator grille and approximately similar bumper with fogs.

No, we do not scold designers, the car really looks stylish, its smooth lines and the body itself attracts attention. Perhaps some such a small amount of differences will be upset, as not disassembled people will think that they bought a convertible to Astra in the body.

The sidewall Opel Cascada looks great due to a strong external line, coming from the top of the door to the rear light, connecting with it. Approximately similar solution was implemented in. The wheels of the 17th diameter also support the attractiveness of the car, the plus can be ordered as much as 20s.


Behind we see absolutely the same picture, only the optics are slightly already. It is worth noting that the optics of the car Cascada received LEDs unlike the brothers. Plus, the buyer has the ability to choose any of 10 colors for its car, and you can also pick up the color of the roof, 3 shades are available.

By the way about the roof. It opens at the expense of servo drives in 17 seconds, not so quickly, but acceptable. If your speed does not exceed 50 km / h, you can open / close the top, nothing bad happens. The soft material is thought out in terms of sound insulation and consists of two plates, so there should be no problems with comfort. It is noted that at an additional fee can be installed the third plate by making the car even quieter from the inside.


By size, the model was really rather big:

  • length - 4696 mm;
  • width - 1838 mm;
  • height - 1440 mm;
  • wheel base - 2695 mm;
  • road clearance - 145 mm.

Since we started talking about noise insulation, you should immediately go to the description of the car's interior. Here again we see all the same, although it has already gone Opel philosophy, all the salons of the company's cars are very similar.


Here are 4 places, behind two places with not a special number of space. If the roof is raised and the front arm is thrown back, it is not a problem in the back seat. There is nothing interesting from behind. Front seats are ordinary, no hard side supports, this is not a sports car. Ordinary comfortable heated chairs, but they are new, not like a fellow.


The chromed roof opening button is located on the tunnel between the seats. The button itself is set to the key, which opens and closes all the windows at once, which is quite convenient. There is also an electronic handbrake and opening boxing with cupcakers. The CASCADA gearbox selector does not have any special special, there is a niche for trifles, ideally suitable for a smartphone.

The central console is oversaturated with a huge number of buttons, they are all responsible for multimedia and climatic installation. In fact, it is the main purpose of their purpose. The display itself is small, it is deepened in the console, its quality is not special, but for the use of music enough. The lower part has the classic USB port, AUX and one outlet to 12V.


The steering column is also not subject to change, the same three-spoke steering wheel with a leather trim and a small number of buttons. Skin, by the way, is still present on the Torpedo panel, which did not always exist in Astra. Tidder identical - 4 Well with analog sensors and as simple as possible on-board computer in the middle.

Surprising the practicality of the Opel Cascada luggage compartment, it is not typical for the cabriolet, they are usually most as possible. So here luggage compartment With a volume of 280 or 380 liters, depending on whether you folded the roof or not, it has the ability to expand. The seats are folded using the button and the volume increases to 750 liters. What cabriolence have you ever seen?


In general, the salon has already known, pleasant and efficiently made. I am glad that some useful things have made, for example, the safety belt function.

Small but good engines

A type Volume Power Torque Acceleration Maximum speed Number of cylinders
Petrol 1.4 L. 120 hp 200 h * m 11.9 seconds. 195 km / h 4
Petrol 1.4 L. 140 hp 200 h * m 10.9 seconds. 207 km / h 4
Petrol 1.6 L. 170 hp 260 H * M 9.6 seconds. 222 km / h 4
Petrol 1.6 L. 200 hp 280 H * M 9.2 sec. 235 km / h 4
Diesel 2.0 L. 165 hp 350 H * M 10.3 sec. 218 km / h 4
Diesel 2.0 L. 170 hp 400 H * M 10.3 sec. 218 km / h 4
Diesel 2.0 L. 195 hp 400 H * M 9.4 seconds. 230 km / h 4

From a technical point of view, the model is also quite good. Ages 7 versions of gasoline and diesel power aggregates, brief characteristics which are presented in the table above.

Petrol:

  • Ecotec 1.4 turbo at 120 or 140 horses;
  • 1.6 Sidi Turbo at 170 or 200 hp

Diesel:

  • 2.0 CDTI at 165 or 170 horses;
  • 2.0 Biturbo at 195 "Mare".

Most attention is attracted to the gasoline Cascada 1.6 for 200 horsepower. The bottom line is that the pedal is built into a turbocharged sensor. That is, there is an Overboost technology in the car. Torque in 280 h * m clamped with electronics, and when harsh pressed On the gas pedal, this restriction is removed and the torque increases to 300. All this is valid for 5 seconds. The unit is equipped with a two-way flywheel, shafts with balancing and a two-storey crankcase. It was well reflected in silence in the cabin.


As already mentioned it is not a sports cabriolet, but more walking. It is not worth waiting for him hard dynamics, the fastest version accelerates the car until hundreds of 9.2 seconds, sports and does not smell.

With regards to the economy of power units, quite ordinary consumption for such a car. Petrol opel motors Cascada consumes from 8 to 9 liters in the city during calm driving, on the highway approximately 6. Diesels are usually not more than 7 liters in the city, but there is a version with automatic transmission, there is already consumption to 9.

Transmission and suspension boxes

In terms of gearboxes, everything is simple enough, mostly all the aggregates are equipped with a 6-speed mechanic with front-wheel drive. The weakest diesel and petrol motor On 170 forces can be purchased with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Of course, the machine is much more convenient, but the fuel consumption increases with it.


The suspension of the car is simple, but with weighty modifications, it is taken from Astra. The front suspension is called HiperStrut - essentially very similar to the diagram, but with two additional levers. Rear is a dependent elastic beam with two transverse levers to control the trajectory of the rear wheels.

In some Cascada, there is a Flexride system with 2 vehicle behavior modes. The Tour mode implies the usual use of the car, while the chassis is still harsh and well implements turns. For sports mode Everything becomes even better in this regard. Speaking about manageability It is worth noting the good work of engineers over the body. Work on rigidity is not bad, as the convertibles are usually in turn behavior badly towards the body, everything is in order.


Price

The machine is in the middle price segment for a similar class. The minimum manufacturer asks about 30,000 euros for it, which is a little more than 2 million rubles. Sales began in 2013 and the car did not come to our country.

Accordingly, if now you have a desire to purchase Opel Cascada, you need to try very well, because there is no announcement on the school boards. The purchase will have to be performed outside of Russia, while still it will do it hard. In Europe, sales were not so huge, so they sell them there are not so much. After that, you will have a lot of problems with transportation and customs clearance, but with a great desire to do it all.


Opel Cascade is a beautiful large and comfortable carbill, ideal for a day off. Its main goal is to enjoy on certain days, it is not for every day, despite the fact that it can be used as the main one. When buying it, you are around the comfort, convenience and style, fans and ordinary people will constantly pay attention to you, and this wanted many car enthusiasts.

Cascada video review

For this money ...

Modifications Astra Cabrio / Astra Cabrio differ only to the PPC - version with mechanical box It costs $ 28460, and automatic $ 29960. The choice of options is not large, almost everything is provided in standard equipment. If you look at other brands, it is closest to the convertible closer to the Peugeot 206 CC / Peugeot 206 CC (~ $ 23,000), but it is made on the basis of a more compact class model, and the number of price tags on Peugeot 307 CC / Peugeot 307 CC will be overloaded at 30000 . They don't have to talk about the rest of the convertibles at all, there are of course more brand, but prices take off to heaven.

This car is for ...

Convertible, from a practical point of view, the machine is absolutely stupid - a small salon, a low roof, half the trunk takes compartment for a folded awning, but everything changes when summer comes ... especially when the sun shines, and near the water :)

About the brand ...

Since its foundation in 1862, the company Opel / Opel It sought to make the achievements of science and technology widely accessible to all sectors of society. Such philosophy remains unchanged to this day. She was successively embodied Opel / Opel At all stages of the company's development. Today, this philosophy underlies the creation of all Opel / Opel cars.

About the model ...

Creating Opel Astra. Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio, Opel / Opel Worked closely with "Atelier automotive design"BERTONE. Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio is a quick, powerful and pickup car that can turn driving into pleasure. In addition, it boasts an extensive list of security devices. Along with stylish appearance and high characteristicsworthy sports car, Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio also has functional flexibility and practicality. Magnificent equipment, "Intelligent" use indoor space And high-quality materials guarantee that Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio will satisfy the needs of the owner and embody his dreams.

Thoughts on the sidelines ...

Operation of the cabriolet in Moscow, as in any other Russian city, except, perhaps, Sochi, conjugate with several difficulties. First, we have a rather short summer. Therefore, in the capital, convertibles with a rigid metal roof are increasingly popular, as they can be used in winter. Secondly, the most opposed when traveling to open Machine - This is dust. So, after the test, it was necessary to wash off and reproach for a couple of hours. Nevertheless, no dirt, rain, cold and other troubles can not overshadow the pleasure of traveling on the cabriolet. It can compare except with the journey on the yacht. A cabriolet is not just a car with a folding riding, but also a kind of self-expression. Not once noticed how Opel Astra / Opel Astra Some envy looked at the owners, and even more so the owners, neighboring machines. This was especially clearly visible with the roof lowered. But I want to talk about the roof more. After all, this is a work of engineering art. The design is incredibly comfortable and thoughtful. Everything is done so that, first of all, nothing can be broken, and secondly, even the full technical illiteracy of the owner will not affect the result. In any case, the awning can be either complicated or put, other not given. To do this, it is necessary to produce three simple manipulations. Sweep two locking hooks and press the button. True, at high speed with a riding rear seat It becomes uncomfortable. And at 160 km per hour, life is completely unbearable here. A strong wind stream presses on the ears, the eyes will be watched. Therefore, if someone sits at the back, it is better to ride me.

PROS...

Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio raises the mood, even the traditional Moscow region Friday traffic jam is unable to destroy the charge of cheerfulness that you get when moving in an outdoor car. The sun heats, the temperature beyond 12-15 ° C, the roof is folded, but no one frnds in the car. With the raised side windows, installed by the windproof screen and the heater turned on, the drafts are not penetrated into the cabin (! When the screen is installed, the car becomes double). From this experiment, we can conclude that to operate Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio for direct purpose (i.e. as open car) Perhaps already starting with early spring and until late autumn without prejudice to health.

The creators of Opel Astra Cabrio / Opel Astra Cabrio endowed it not only by the rapid design, but also the corresponding motor - 2.2 liters, 147 hp For a small car weighing ~ 1300 kg more than impressive numbers.

Despite the fact that the salon is clamped with a compartment for a folding awning - in the back seat, it is quite possible to place a couple of people, the conditions are of course cramped, but for a short walk through the city is quite tolerable.

MINUSES...

An embarrassed clutch drive (possibly on the test car, the mechanism has already been killed a little) - the pedal has a huge pedal, and it works in the uppermost position - and it is inconvenient, and often interferes quickly to react to change the road situation.

Soft awake can be burned out from the views of the surrounding and cold wind in the back, but not from noise - its volume does not change with different positions of the roof.
