Description

Facts about the model
Initially, the Cavalier was manufactured in Germany on the same line as the Opel Ascona. From 1977, the Cavalier was also manufactured in the United Kingdom. Vauxhall Cavalier's biggest competitor in the domestic market was the Ford Cortina. In 2017, General Motors sold the Vauxhall brand to French PSA Peugeot Citroën. The cars now manufactured under the Vauxhall brand are versions of Opel models. Vauxhall models differ only through their unique Vauxhall grille.
