In known functionality and good equipment, the Opel Meriva range now adds this fast and economic engine CDTI 125 hp to position itself as the most powerful diesel minivan market; a version with no sporting pretensions, but ensuring good performance for traveling with family, luggage included.

Do not expect this enhanced version of the Opel Meriva CDTi dynamic behavior such as OPC variant gasoline 180 hp 1.6 turbo. The latter surprised us, not only for its speed and aesthetics Racing, but especially how to road holding, thanks to specific and firmer suspension and a body lowered height. More than 24,000 euros, however, they set a high price for This content minivan just 4 meters, category leader and really a practical alternative to traditional and economic utility.

This time, top Diesel 1.7 CDTi 125PS engine also shares the Corsa, Opel Meriva talk about the use. With his invariable virtues of space and comfort, and with the usual dynamic shortcomings imposing its body volume, while ensuring a excellent performance for pull relief of family burden, with consumption set to travel and a somewhat reasonable price.

We can not say that this block is direct injection of new generation, but it has been updated every year to gain performance. 60 to 75 hp; subsequently, and as with common rail feed distributor rather than pump 100; and now, with different electronic management and variable geometry turbo instead of fixed, up to 125 hp Diesel new record in the category. Unmitigated exceeds the limited 86 hp dCi Nissan Note, the Ford Fusion 90 or the Fiat Idea and even the 110 hp of the Hyundai Matrix CRDi. considerable difference and apparently might consider unnecessary considering the logic and good response already given in the same range engine with 100 hp.
This renovated 1.7 CDTi pays 16 hp more than advertised. Too progressive in its infancy, pushing hard just before reaching the 2,000 rpm and up to almost 4,000 laps, which decays area.
However, without being indispensable, 1,200 euro supplement impact of this new variant, as always, on safety. Especially considering the possibilities of occupation and load a minivan with a higher weight and 1,400 kilos. More than 140 real hp now delivers and good torque figures, strong especially from 2,000 rpm (below are somewhat lazy) ensure better acceleration at any track, highlighting their good records overtaking, up to three seconds faster than CDTi / 100 and very close even to the extreme variant OPC.

The Opel Meriva 1.7 CDTI 125 CV has now also with a manual that adds a relationship, six in total, while improving driving comfort and even consumption in highway, very tight in itself, and easy to maintain below 7 liters per 100 kilometers.
Due to its characteristics of small family and having as there is CDTi 100hp, it may seem excessive in the Opel Meriva opt for the more powerful diesel. 25 CV extra, however, have a presence. We will not win races, but overtaking move and a safety reserve allowed. And without penalizing consumption, comfort or functionality.

– Family commitment
