The Vauxhall Opel Calibra, a sleek and sporty coupe, was produced by the German manufacturer Opel from 1989 to 1997, with the Vauxhall badge being used in the United Kingdom. This car, designed by Erhard Schnell, was a significant departure from Opel's traditional lineup, embracing a more aerodynamic and performance-oriented aesthetic. It was the first Opel to feature a fully-fledged aerodynamic design, achieved through extensive wind tunnel testing. This resulted in a drag coefficient of just 0.26, a remarkable figure for its time, and a contributing factor to the Calibra's impressive handling and fuel efficiency. The Calibra was available with a range of engines, including 2.0-liter and 2.5-liter petrol options, and a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel. The top-of-the-line 2.0-liter 16-valve engine delivered a potent 150 horsepower, making the Calibra a truly thrilling driving experience.

The Calibra's success stemmed from its combination of sporty style, practicality, and performance. Its unique coupe design provided a comfortable and spacious interior for both driver and passengers, while the generous cargo area made it suitable for everyday use. The car also boasted a high level of standard equipment, including power steering, electric windows, and central locking, further enhancing its appeal. Throughout its production run, the Calibra was praised for its refined ride, sharp handling, and overall driving experience. It was a true icon of the 1990s, captivating enthusiasts with its distinctive design and impressive performance. The Vauxhall Opel Calibra left a lasting mark on the automotive landscape, establishing Opel as a manufacturer capable of producing exciting and desirable vehicles that challenged the status quo.
