About the Meriva

The “Meriva” marque is one that is known with at least 3 accompanying brand names depending on which market you are in. In most markets, it’s known as the Opel Meriva, but in the UK it is the Vauxhall Meriva, and in Latin America, the first generation was known as the Chevrolet Meriva. For the purposes of this introduction, we’ll stick with Opel Meriva for simplicity.

The Opel Meriva was a mini-MPV built on Opel’s Corsa platform, and sold from 2003 to 2017. During that time, the Meriva model spanned 2 generations, each generation also featuring a mid-life facelift. It was built in both generations as a front-engine FWD drivetrain model. One main difference in layout was the arrival of rear coach doors in the second-generation models.

The first generation was also known as the Meriva A and was first launched in 2003 as a smaller counterpart to the larger family car, the Opel Zafira. It was only a 5-seater car, but the second row could slide back and forth to create more space where needed. Opel actually branded this style of interior as FlexSpace and used it in several different models, including the aforementioned Zafira.

The second-generation was marketed as the Meriva B, and offered a greater size and more interior space. The length of the car was increased from 159.4 inches in the Meriva A up to 168.8 inches in the Meriva B. Where the first-generation models were based on the Corsa, the Meriva B had a floorplan more inspired by the Zafira Tourer, and other interior features based on the Insignia and Astra sedan models.

In the end, Opel decided to replace the Meriva B with a crossover SUV-styled model called the Crossland X. This coincided with a more general and wider-reaching market shift in the direction of crossover SUVs replacing people carrier models (minivans).
