Next-Generation Opel Antara Reported To Adopt New D2XX Architecture
3
All signs indicate that General Motors is diligently working on a family of new compact global crossovers that will all share a common architecture, called D2XX (“D2,” for short). This architecture will also be responsible for compact passenger cars, such as the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze. It is said that as much as 12 nameplates will be supported by this single architecture, and one of them will be the next-generation Opel Antara.
According to WorldCarFans.com, the next-generation Antara will ditch the current Theta architecture (which seems to be going by the wayside altogether) in favor of this more flexible platform. But don’t expect it any earlier than Spring 2015.

It makes sense to only develop stuff once. Amazing the number of new Captiva’s at the local Auction site.
Ya, dealers are picking these up like crazy I think… Its amazing no infotainment system, and yet they must be selling… The rental companies seem to letting them go with 10,000 to 15,000 miles on them… prices range from $18,000 to $28,000 for a fully loaded V6… I like the size relative to the NOX but still would probably consider the Nox with the 2.5L…
It’s amazing what the dealers are asking for these as used vehicles! One dealer near me has like 5. Still don’t get why GM won’t sell them to John Q. Public when the dealers are selling them along with the new Nox anyway. Will the 2015 Nox be on this platform?
