Innovative technology

Insignia is designed to make life easier with innovative technology that can turn the everyday into the extraordinary. Intelligent lighting for different conditions. A driving feel to suit your mood. Maximum traction whatever the conditions. There's a lot to discover.

A choice of engines.

The 180PS 1.6i 16v Turbo, a high-tech 140PS 1.8i 16v VVT, a 2.0i 16v Turbo at 220PS and a smooth 2.8i V6 24v automatic with 260PS. Four common rail 2.0 litre direct injection diesels - a 130PS and 160PS and two ecoFLEX variants also producing 130PS* and 160PS

As you would expect, Insignia's petrol engines achieve outstanding power, performance and fuel economy through the innovative use of new technology. there no compromise on performance, with state-of -the- art engine control and twin catalysts the engine easily meets Euro 5 emission standards too.

All Insignia diesels feature 16 valves and variable geometry turbochargers to maximise fuel economy and reduce emissions without compromising the driving experience. Indeed, Insignia ecoFLEX models provide conclusive proof that diesel performance can also go hand-in-hand with the most stringent levels of environmental control.

A choice of transmission.

All Insignia models, apart from the auto-only 260PS V6 model, feature a six-speed manual gearbox

All models except the ecoFLEX, 1.6i 16v Turbo and 1.8i 16v are also available with an optional six-speed automatic transmission. This unit comes complete with Active Select that allows you to take control of gear changes via a sequential shift.

Both manual and automatic transmissions feature the latest GM technology, delivering enhanced fuel efficiency combined with optimum driveability.

And a choice of drive. Adaptive 4X4 with FlexRide.

Specify the Adaptive 4X4 - permanent four-wheel drive - system with FlexRide and your Insignia will automatically distribute drive from the front to the rear wheels as conditions demand. The result? Maximum traction for smooth, strong acceleration, outstanding driving dynamics and more stability in cornering.

Press the Sport button and it distributes additional drive torque to the rear wheels for an even more dynamic feel. The advantages begin when you pull away, all four wheels are engaged for stable acceleration with maximum grip. In normal driving, the power is split 95% front: 5% rear, but under acceleration the system automatically diverts more power to the rear wheels for maximum traction before gradually moving power back towards the front wheels.

With the Sport button depressed the system apportions more power to the rear wheels in a 40% front 60% rear split to give an even more sporting feel. The electronic Limited Slip Differential (eLSD) fitted to the rear of all 4X4 models offers even more benefits for the enthusiastic driver.
