Opel has made the two millionth vehicle at its plant in Gliwice (GM Manufacturing Poland).
The milestone car was an Australia-bound Holden badged Cascada convertible with turbocharged 1.6 litre engine in Deep Sky Blue.
Production of Astras and Cascadas for Australia and New Zealand started in February and is a part of the recently announced strategy to strengthen the cooperation between Opel and other GM brands. At the end of the year the production of the Buick-badged Cascada for North America will begin.
“The two millionth car produced by Opel in Gliwice is the symbolic opening of the next phase of development of our plant, which will be complemented by the launch of the new generation Astra later this year,” said Andrzej Korpak, GMP managing director.
