Having been giving some thought to an eventual replacement for my Antara, I have begun to wonder what the heck Vauxhall/Peugeot are thinking.
I imagined that the Grandland X would be the replacement for the Antara but when looking into the options I find that the Grandland X is considerably smaller than the Antara and would certainly not be suitable for my needs.
Looking at the table below it seems that the Grandland X is the Peugeot 3008 badged as Vauxhall when I expected that it would in fact be based on the Peugeot 5008!!
On that basis it seems that Vauxhall will be ruling themselves out of the large SUV market which is a great shame.
Further it seems that the newly launched Crossland X is smaller than the Mokka X!!
So it looks as though after owning more Vauxhalls than I care to remember my brand loyalty of over 50 years will probably have to be set aside for another make!!
