the New Vauxhall Insignia

The new Vauxhall Insignia is a break through in the combination of beauty and technology. With innovative technology meeting unmistakeable quality and looks the new Vauxhall Insignia is the car of the future today. 

With so much press and media attention and anticipation surrounding the release of the Vauxhall Insignia, here is just some of the things they have had to say.

"The Insignia is the most desirable Vauxhall saloon for ages, and it's as good on the inside, especially for motorway trips. Offers lots of high-tech toys." WhatCar?

"The Vauxhall Insignia has been designed excellently inside and out, refinement, impressive ride quality"  Channel 4 Car Review

"The ride quality is sportingly firm but never harsh, the chassis offers exceptional composure on even very difficult mountain passes, the brakes are tireless and reassuring, this respect, it sets the standard for the class" The Times

European Car of the Year 2009

In one of the hardest-fought contests in recent years, Vauxhall's Insignia has taken the honours as 2009 European Car of the Year, polling an impressive 321 votes.

The 59-strong jury of senior motoring journalists from 23 European ountries voted the Vauxhall Insignia first, with the Ford Fiesta and Volkswagen Golf coming in second and third respectively.

Steve Cropley, editor-in-chief of AutoCar, COTY's british-based sponsoring magazine said: "We are delighted to be able to deliver good news at such a tough time. The market's the toughest we've seen for 20 years, but nothing alters the fact that the insignia is a great car.... it deserved to triumph and it did."

Bill Parfitt, Chairman and Managing Director of General Motors UK, was equally encouraged by the win: "This is great news for GM/Vauxhall and its employees, suppliers and retailers. Vauxhall has made great strides in recent years, particularly in design and dynamics, and the insignia illustrates what we're capable of achieving. It offers great quality and value in a prestige package that will provide an exceptional ownership experience to our customers."

This year, 37 cars were put forward for COTY, with just seven short-listed for the ultimate award, which represents the most outstanding car launched in the last 12 months. Each contender must be on sale in at least five european countries.

Vauxhall unveiled the Insignia at this year's British International Motor Show, where its sporty silhouette, class-leading aerodynamics and innovative technology earned it praise from customers and media alike.

The Insignia's triumph marks the third COTY accolade for Vauxhall. In 1985, the Astra won the title, followed two years later by the Carlton/Omega.

The Vauxhall Insignia - Innovative Technology

The New Vauxhall Insignia is not only a beautiful car inside and out but it also fully equipped with fantastic technology.

Such as Vauxhall's unique expertise in lighting technology.  This is underpinned by the insignia's latest generation AFL (Adaptive Forward Lighting) system. Nine different light beam settings automatically adjust themselves to cater for various driving conditions, simultaneously enhancing safety and driving pleasure. Moreover, the distinctive styling signature of the front and rear light clusters adds to the insignia's unique design.

The Vauxhall Insignia also has further enhanced ISDPlus Active Chassis System which helps the car adapt to prevailing driving conditions. The Insignia will be offered with front-wheel and all-wheel drive. The new ‘Adaptive 4x4' system's proactive, instantaneous torque distribution not only ensures optimal traction but also enhances dynamic handling performance.

Furthermore, the Vauxhall Insignia is the first car with a Front Camera System.  The system works by reading the speed limit signs displayed and giving the driver a reminder on the facia, helping you keep safe and legal.  Leave your lane without a signal and it can also warn you - just incase you're tired or simply not paying attention.
