Следваща Vauxhall Insignia да бъде побратимен с Cadillac XTS

[Auto News]

Vauxhall confirms Cadillac cooperation as it enters co-development of MPVs with PSA group. Opel-Vauxhalls next-generation Insignia is set to be twinned with a Cadillac rather than the Peugeot 508 and Citroen C5 replacements, Opel interim CEO Thomas Sedran has revealed.
General Motors Europe (Opel-Vauxhall) and PSA Peugeot-Citroen разкри last week that they would be co-developing MPVs, but there was no mention of large saloons.
Instead, the Cadillac XTS replacement will be the Insignias sister model when the pair are launched in the latter part of the decade. A facelifted version of the current Insignia is in final testing in the Arctic circle before this съмърс launch.
We will draw on developments from within the parent company for the Insignia replacement, said Sedran, who hands over to current VW executive Karl-Thomas Neumann on 1 Март.
This provides us with the advantage of being able to use technology from GM that is also earmarked for Cadillac.
Other Vauxhalls not in the GM-PSA тай-up include the Corsa and Antara. The next Corsa will be placed at Frankfurt in September before a launch in April next year, but that cars replacement in 2020 will probably use the small-car платформа that GM and PSA are co-developing.
The new Antara is due in spring 2015 and will be based on Xoxo Delta II платформа from the Vauxhall Astra.
