The new Vauxhall Vectra Estate has been named estate car of the year by a leading motoring magazine.
Judges from What Car? praised the newly enhanced vehicle and chose the new Exclusiv model as estate car of the year because of its impressive 1,850-litre carrying capacity, the largest in its class.
The judges also hailed the new car's suspension, which has been tuned by Vauxhall engineers specifically for UK roads, and the Vectra's 1.9-litre turbodiesel engine, described as "mightily impressive", Car Pages reports.
In an article for the March issue of What Car?, the judges said: "We never had any quibbles with the Vectra's cargo-carrying capacity….. However, it's under the skin where the most impressive changes have taken place. In addition to the cosseting ride of the old car, sharper steering and retuned suspension have transformed the Vectra."
The What Car? team added: "There's none of the constant chatter that blights some diesels, with engine noise fading into the background at motorway speeds. This, together with impressive road and wind noise suppression, makes the Vectra an extremely refined and comfortable long-distance cruiser."
The Vectra Estate range starts from £15,750 and the new Vectra Estate VXR is now on sale, with a top speed of 158mph.
