Opel introduced the second generation of the Frontera SUV in 1998, and even if it didn't look that much different than its predecessor, it was actually a new vehicle.

In 1998 Opel introduced the second generation of its Frontera SUV with a choice of two bodyworks: sports with three doors and Wagon with five doors.

Born as a joint project between General Motors, Isuzu, and Honda, the Opel Frontera was the European version of the family, and it was a bold statement.

The European arm of GM, Opel, introduced the facelifted version of the Frontera SUV in 1995, fixing most of the problems encountered by the model when it was launched in 1989.

Without any experience in the SUV category, Opel took for granted what GM said and produced the Frontera for the European market.

General Motors, Isuzu, and Honda joined forces and developed an SUV sold under different badges across the world. In Europe, that SUV was known as the Opel Frontera.
