The Opel Calibra, produced from 1989 to 1997, was a sporty coupe offered by the German automaker Opel. It was a direct competitor to the likes of the Honda Prelude and Toyota Celica, aiming to capture the attention of drivers seeking a stylish and performance-oriented vehicle. The Calibra's sleek, aerodynamic design, with its low drag coefficient of just 0.26, contributed significantly to its popularity. Designed by Erhard Schnell, the Calibra featured a wedge-shaped front end, flowing lines, and a distinctive rear spoiler, making it a visually striking car. Built on the same platform as the Opel Vectra, the Calibra offered a range of four-cylinder and six-cylinder engines, including a turbocharged 2.0-liter unit capable of producing 195 horsepower. The Calibra's handling proved to be precise and engaging, thanks in part to its independent suspension on all four wheels and front-wheel drive configuration. Beyond its performance attributes, the Calibra also offered a comfortable interior with a well-equipped dashboard and ample space for both driver and passengers. It was available in various trim levels, from basic to more luxurious, allowing buyers to customize their experience. The Calibra's success was further demonstrated by its impressive sales figures, especially in Europe where it consistently ranked among the top-selling sports coupes. Despite its initial popularity, the Calibra was ultimately discontinued in 1997, paving the way for newer models in Opel's lineup. The Calibra remains a memorable and iconic model for Opel, representing the brand's commitment to offering sporty and stylish vehicles. Its influence can still be seen in some of Opel's more recent models, which continue to showcase the brand's focus on performance and design.
