Opel Meriva OPC (2006–2010) Overview: Specs, Generations, Which to Buy

Overview of the Opel Meriva OPC compact van (2006–2010): opel meriva opc specs, the single generation, and which version to buy used.

The Opel Meriva OPC is a compact van built from 2006 to 2010 with a single power output of 180 hp. If you are searching for opel meriva opc specs, the short version: one generation, one 1.6-liter engine, manual gearbox only, front-wheel drive. It suits a driver who wants family-van practicality combined with genuine hot-hatch pace in one body.

Opel Meriva OPC generations

2 generation, restyling (2006–2010)

The Opel Meriva OPC 2 generation, restyling was produced from 2006 to 2010 exclusively as a compact van. The lineup is unusually simple: exactly one modification, the 1.6 MT with 180 hp, a manual gearbox, and front-wheel drive. The engine is a 1598 cc unit, and despite the van body the Opel Meriva OPC 1.6 MT accelerates to 100 km/h in 8.2 seconds while consuming 7.8 l/100km in the combined cycle. That combination — sub-9-second acceleration in a compact van — is what defined the OPC badge on this model.

Because the whole run used one engine, one gearbox, and one drivetrain, there are no trim-level traps when comparing cars: every Opel Meriva OPC of 2006–2010 shares the same mechanical specification.

Which Opel Meriva OPC to buy

• 1.6 MT (2 generation, restyling): the only modification ever offered, delivering 180 hp from its 1598 cc engine, 0–100 km/h in 8.2 seconds, and 7.8 l/100km combined — every Opel Meriva OPC on the used market is this version.

Buying used is straightforward in one respect: the 2006–2010 production run had a single mechanical configuration, so there is no risk of overpaying for a rare drivetrain or missing a better-equipped engine option. The newest cars are from 2010, so compare individual condition and history between examples rather than model years or versions.

The Opel Meriva OPC never offered an automatic gearbox or all-wheel drive, so a listing claiming either does not match the factory specification.
