Following the sedan and hatchback is a wagon, which is due next year and the powerful VXR/OPC sport variants. These are set to be powered by a 2.8i litre V6, which are borrowed from Saab. The new Insignia is primarily designed for Europe and the UK is expected to be the most important market.
Sales begin today with first deliveries expected this Winter.
