2015 Opel Cabrio Brochure
By 2015, the Cabrio faced a shrinking market: the BMW 2-Series and Mercedes-Benz SLC were redefining the segment, yet Opel's offering held its ground with a 1.6-turbo good for 170 hp or a punchier 200 hp version. The power-operated roof folded away in under 17 seconds, and buyers could specify heated leather seats, a nine-speaker audio system, or the navigation package. It was
2016 Opel Cabrio Brochure

2017 Opel Cascada Brochure
By 2017, Opel's roadster faced stiffer competition from the Fiat 124 Spider and Mazda MX-5, yet the Cascada held its ground with a turbocharged 1.4-litre engine producing 165 horsepower. The larger 1.6-litre turbo variant, good for 200 hp, offered buyers seeking more spirited acceleration a compelling alternative. Both petrol units were paired with six-speed manual or automatic
2018 Opel Cascada Brochure
By 2018, the Cascada held a niche position in the shrinking European convertible market, competing against the Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet and the ageing Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet.
