Opel introduced the second generation of the Meriva in 2010 and it had to upgrade it in 2014 to meet the Euro 6 emission standards, which became mandatory in September same year.

Introduced in 2010 at the Geneva Motor Show, the second generation of the small-sized minivan from Opel brought new ideas to a segment where there were not too many contenders.

The small MPV based on the Opel Corsa was launched in 2003 and just two years later it received an update to keep its high-sell values up and running.

Opel tried something different and installed a punchy engine under the hood of its smallest MPV from the European market, the Meriva.

Opel showed the first generation of the small-sized MPV Meriva in 2002 and started to sell it in 2003, thus offering a vehicle big enough to fit a family of five but small enough to fit in tiny parking spots.
