2 Answers
Four cylinders. The Opel Antara is equipped with a highly efficient and low-consumption 2.4L ECOTEC all-aluminum inline four-cylinder D-VVT double overhead camshaft 16-valve gasoline engine. The 2.4-liter naturally aspirated engine of the Opel Antara delivers 167 horsepower and a maximum torque of 230 Nm. This engine can output its maximum power at 5,600 rpm and reach its peak torque at 4,600 rpm. The engine features D-VVT technology and multi-point fuel injection, with an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. More details about the Opel Antara are as follows: 1. The engine is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission (6AT). The 6AT transmission offers good reliability and durability, along with smooth shifting. 2. The Opel Antara uses a MacPherson independent front suspension and a four-link independent rear suspension. The four-link independent suspension enhances wheel contact with the ground, improving traction and boosting the car's handling and comfort. 3. The Opel Antara is available in both front-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive versions. The four-wheel-drive model features an on-demand all-wheel-drive system and uses a multi-plate clutch central differential. 4. The Opel Antara offers a spacious interior, with dimensions of 4,596 mm in length, 1,850 mm in width, and 1,761 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2,707 mm.
The Opel Antara is a classic SUV. I remember driving this car for a while. Most of its engine configurations are a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, which provides sufficient power for daily use and reasonable fuel consumption. It runs smoothly in the city with quick acceleration response. However, if you opt for the six-cylinder 3.2-liter version, the power is stronger, making highway overtaking easier, though the downside is higher fuel consumption. When I took it for outings, the four-cylinder version performed stably on mountain roads, with good noise control and a smooth engine without any strange noises. When buying, pay attention to the engine model—newer models may have upgraded technology. Regular maintenance can extend its lifespan. Overall, it's suitable for family commuting, and choosing the four-cylinder version is more worry-free and cost-effective, with fewer risks of faults. After all, the simpler engine is easier to maintain, making driving both reassuring and comfortable.
