The Vauxhall Frontera is now available in top-spec Ultimate trim, in keeping with the rest of the Vauxhall line-up, providing a high level of specification at an affordable price.

The new Frontera Ultimate is available with a choice of efficient powertrains. Customers can select between two fully electric versions, including the Frontera Electric 44kWh, as well as the recently announced Frontera Electric Extended Range, with a larger 54kWh battery offering up to 251 miles (WLTP) on a single charge. Alternatively, the Frontera Ultimate is available as a Hybrid with either 110PS or 145PS, enabling fully electric driving for up to one kilometre or up to 50% of the time in urban driving without the need to plug in.

Specification

All Frontera models share the same practical and flexible design. Measuring 4,385mm in length, the Frontera sits between the new Mokka (4,150mm) and Grandland (4,650mm) in Vauxhall’s refreshed SUV line-up. Despite its compact footprint, the Frontera offers class-leading boot space of up to 1,600 litres with the rear seats folded – greater than the Astra Sports Tourer Electric (1,596 litres).

Inside, all models feature Vauxhall’s Pure Panel cockpit with dual 10-inch widescreen displays, a new steering wheel design and physical buttons for key functions. Satellite navigation, wireless Apple CarPlay™/Android Auto™, wireless smartphone charging and natural voice recognition (“Hey Vauxhall”) all come as standard.

Entry-level Design trim provides a strong foundation with 16-inch black steel wheels, wheel arch cladding, black skid plates and body-colour bumpers. Customers also benefit from an extensive suite of driver assistance features, including rear parking sensors, a rear-view camera, lane keep assist, traffic sign recognition, driver attention alert and cruise control with speed limiter. Design models can be further enhanced with the optional Design Styling Pack, which adds a white roof, roof rails and 16-inch white steel wheels.

Above the Design specification, the GS trim comes with aerodynamic 17-inch alloy wheels, high-gloss black door mirrors, silver skid plates, tinted rear windows and LED taillights. Inside, GS models include Intelli-Seat front seats with a tailbone pressure-relief slot, electronic climate control, blind spot alert, front parking sensors and an electrochromatic rear-view mirror.

At the top of the range, the new Ultimate trim enhances comfort and practicality with heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a heated windscreen, LED fog lamps and roof rails with a 240kg load capacity. This builds on the strong GS specification, ensuring customers enjoy the highest levels of comfort, convenience and versatility in the Frontera range.
