New Vauxhall SUV pics

Here are the first pictures of Vauxhall’s new SUV, the Antara, which will make its world debut at the Paris Motor Show at the end of September.

The four-wheel drive model will feature a 2.0-litre 148bhp common-rail turbodiesel, which can be mated with both a manual and an automatic gearbox. A 139bhp four-cylinder petrol engine will join the range shortly after launch to become the entry level model.

Satellite navigation and Bluetooth phone connectivity are available as standard from launch.

The UK launch date will be announced nearer the official show debut in September.
