How to spot one

Look for

  • Original front: chrome wings link the Opel badge to slim headlights with twin-wing LEDs.6
  • Shark-fin-shaped C-pillars create a floating-roof effect in the side view.1718
  • A hood crease and a subtle crescent low on the doors are original Grandland X details.6
  • Facelift cars have a wide, dark Vizor face framing the Opel badge and wing-shaped running lights.29
  • Facelift rear: large Grandland lettering sits centrally on the tailgate with the Opel lightning badge.29

Year by year

  1. 2018

    Color Line introduced a standard black roof, black mirrors and 18-inch alloys; it became Design Line in July.5

  2. November 2019

    Opel 2020 replaced 120 Jahre and added standard 17-inch Technical Grey wheels, code PXS.5

  3. 2020

    Hybrid4 adds tailgate lettering and an optional black hood, both clues to the all-wheel-drive plug-in.110

  4. 2021 facelift

    The X suffix disappears; the wide grille gives way to the dark Vizor panel, with body-color wheel arches and lower doors.259

  5. 2021 facelift

    Pure Panel introduces paired 10- and 12-inch screens; Pixel LED headlights are another new feature.29

    The Grandland X is 20 cm longer, measuring 4.48 m overall.18

  • Crossland X

    The Grandland X is 27 cm longer, measuring 4.48 m overall.18
