The new Opel Grandland, which will arrive at dealerships soon, has already been able to celebrate its first major success. The top-of-the-line SUV has won the ‘2024 Golden Steering Wheel’ in Germany. Stylish, dynamic, spacious and with an electrified drivetrain portfolio – all strong arguments that convinced the experts to name the newcomer ‘made in Germany’ ‘Best car under €50,000’. The award presented by AUTO BILD and BILD am SONNTAG is recognised as one of the most renowned of its kind in the automotive industry. This year’s award for the all-new Grandland takes Opel’s overall ‘Golden Steering Wheel’ tally to 21.

“The new Opel Grandland is already bringing the automotive future to the road. It is the first Opel on a BEV-native platform. This enables exemplary locally emissions-free ranges combined with excellent comfort. This blend combined with the bold and pure Opel design is exceptional. We are delighted that AUTO BILD and BILD am SONNTAG have rewarded this innovative spirit with the Golden Steering Wheel,” said Opel CEO Florian Huettl at the award ceremony in Berlin’s Axel Springer Haus.

“The Opel Grandland convinces with its distinctive design and modern cockpit. And it shows how important it is today to give customers freedom when choosing their drive. Whether hybrid, plug-in hybrid or fully electric – everyone will find the right variant,” said Robin Hornig, editor-in-chief of AUTO BILD.
