Geneva 2008: Opel/Vauxhall Meriva Concept
Posted Feb 08, 2008 @ 12:06 am
GM Europe's Opel/Vauxhall have given us a little teaser for a new concept to be shown at the Geneva Motor Show next month. The Meriva Concept fits in what GM calls the "monocab" segment and draws on the styling cues from two Opel concepts, the GTC and Flextreme. This concept should hint at what future MPVs from GM will look like. One of those MPVs, the Opel Zafira, is planned to be produced and sold in the US, likely as a Saturn.
The Meriva Concept is one of three GM world premieres that will take place in Geneva.

PRESS RELEASE
Meriva Concept to make Geneva debut
Already Europe's market leader in the monocab sector, with one in five pan-European sales being a Zafira, Meriva or Agila, Vauxhall and Opel are set to unveil their vision of the future at the Geneva Motor Show on March 4th.
The Meriva Concept draws styling cues from previous GM styling studies to show how the company's next generation small monocab could look, including the distinctive tick-shaped swage line and neat rear lamp clusters that typified the GTC Coupe and Flextreme models.
Another neat feature of the Meriva Concept is the shape of the glass area, which swoops down towards the B-Pillar – a feature that would allow rear seat passengers a better all-round view if it were offered on a production model.
The Meriva Concept is one of three GM world premieres set to appear at the show.
