The functions of the Sport switch aren’t limited to suspension control. When activated, it also affects the steering and accelerator pedal. The drive-by-wire throttle is altered electronically, leading to a sharper engine response and crisper acceleration, while the map of the power assisted steering is also adjusted, giving the driver a more positive initial turn-in on corner entry. D5 Technical data Interactive Driving System-plus (IDS-plus) with Continuous Damping Control (CDC) D5. The Interactive Driving System (IDS-plus) chassis offers the driver an even more sporting driving experience, thanks mainly to the electronic control of the suspension. Pressing the Sport switch activates the CDC function – CDC monitors the roll, pitch and yaw of the car, and changes the rate of damping on each wheel to optimise the handling, effectively stiffening the suspension – but selectively. This means the vehicle will exhibit a reduced rate of roll and pitch, making it more responsive during direction changes and more settled during the braking/turn-in/acceleration transition when cornering. CDC is a major breakthrough in the segment. Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL) Adaptive Forward Lighting is a sophisticated new lighting system that allows drivers to see around corners and see further ahead at motorway speeds. This optional bi-xenon system employs two main functions: D6 Curving Light D6. Controlled by a combination of steering wheel movement and sensors for the vehicle’s speed and yaw angle, the Curving Light function allows the headlight beam to move up to 15 degrees left or right of the straight ahead position. This ensures the light is always following the trajectory plotted by the front wheels, rather than simply pointing straight ahead. Cornering Light D7. In order that junctions may be viewed more clearly before the turn has been made, Vauxhall has incorporated the Cornering Light function into the AFL system. An additional reflector, within the headlight unit, will broadly illuminate the roadside in the chosen direction of travel, depending on the vehicle’s speed, steering angle and directional indicators. Motorway Light At speeds above 65mph, AFL raises the dipped headlight beam to extend the range of vision for increased safety at higher speed. The beam automatically returns to its normal position when the car falls below that speed. 75 D7 T14902 Vec & Sig COVER.indd 1 3/8/07 17:32:54 Vectra and Signum range 4 Driver features 16 VECTRA AND SIGNUM.

Dramatic lines, advanced driving dynamics and the highest levels of interior quality all combine to set high standards of comfort and control. Hatchback, estate or saloon, Vectra is rewarding to drive, whatever the conditions. Equally engaging on the road, Signum presents an exciting blend of space, flexibility and style that’s like no other executive hatch. Vectra and Signum from Vauxhall. Isn’t it time you took control? This brochure covers Vectra Life, Exclusiv, SRi, Design and Elite, and Signum Elegance, Exclusiv, Design and Elite models only. Some of the vehicles shown include options and accessories available at extra cost. And not all of the features described are available on every model. So please check in the Equipment section for further details. From time to time, we also offer alternative Vectra and Signum models such as Special Editions, featured in their own separate literature or found on the Vauxhall website: www.vauxhall.co.uk T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 3 3/8/07 17:33:34 REFINEMENT AND EXCITEMENT CAN CO-EXIST 4 “Outstanding refinement; comfortable and enjoyable drive; flexible, clean and frugal engine; classy cabin.” What Car? – December 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 4-5 3/8/07 17:34:14 VECTRA. A NEW DEFINITION OF REFINEMENT Vectra’s bold and uncompromising lines make a strong statement about the car: significant changes beneath the skin ensure this style is matched with high levels of refinement. What do we mean by refinement? Smooth, sustainable performance. The ability to conduct a civilised conversation at motorway speeds. The feeling of being in control. Above all, the car is altogether more rewarding to drive, with improved roadholding allied to the highest levels of comfort. Underlining its reputation for refinement, practicality and roominess, Vectra was named Best Estate Car in the What Car? Car of the Year Awards 2006 and 2007. “The Vectra can be hustled along a twisty road with total confidence and, yet, even put a smile on your face.” What Car? – November 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 6-7 7 3/8/07 17:34:19 SIGNUM. A REDEFINITION OF EXECUTIVE HATCH With a longer wheelbase that frees up more interior space than even the roomy Vectra hatchback, Signum totally redefines the concept of the executive hatch. More refined and altogether more comfortable, the latest models combine premium saloon quality with the versatility of an estate and the flexibility of an MPV. Inside, Signum’s innovative FlexSpace® concept sets a whole new standard in rear seat passenger comfort. While a state-of-the-art satellite navigation system – fitted as standard on every Signum model – keeps the driver feeling every bit as relaxed as those sitting behind. “... motorway journeys were impressively quiet, with road and wind noise kept to a minimum. The long sixth gear also ensures that the Signum feels relaxed at 70mph.” Auto Express – 19 October 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 8-9 9 3/8/07 17:34:24 ENJOY THE FEELING OF BEING IN CONTROL 10 11 “Now beats the rest for refinement, ride comfort, handling and interior quality...” What Car? – November 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 10-11 3/8/07 17:34:31 VECTRA: RELAX IN FULLY EMBRACING COMFORT 12 “Settle into the tremendous bucket seats (long a Vauxhall strength), start the 2.2-litre petrol engine we chose first and drive away – and immediately things feel good.” MSN Cars UK 13 Estate model illustrated left. T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 12-13 3/8/07 17:34:38 DISCOVER THE SECRET OF EFFORTLESS COMPOSURE 14 “The Vectra has always been a refined car, but now there’s an added pizzazz to its repertoire.” 15 Fleet News – 1 September 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 14-15 3/8/07 17:34:44 Multi-function display. The centrally positioned, five-inch monochromatic screen displays the time, outside temperature, date and audio information, plus an ice warning. The same display is used for the check control warning functions and trip computer. Multi-function control pad. Located on the driver’s door armrest, this brings together the switches for the electric windows, central door locking and door mirrors in one convenient location. Satellite navigation. Uses the international network of GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites linked to a CD-ROM-based mapping system to guide you to wherever you want to go, anywhere in mainland Britain. A Traffic Message Channel (TMC) function can supply an alternative route when traffic conditions demand, using information received via a dedicated radio frequency. You can even plan your route to avoid motorways! The technology is standard on Vectra Elite and right across the Signum line-up. A range of Vectra Nav models – Life, Exclusiv, Design and SRi – is now available featuring satellite navigation as standard at an attractive price. Enjoy the feeling of being in control “The cabin is equally accommodating… helping people of all shapes and sizes to get comfortable.” What Car? – March 2007 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 16-17 Multi-adjustable seats. All models feature eight-way adjustment of the driver’s seat (reach, rake, height and tilt) plus lumbar adjustment; eight-way adjustment extends to the front passenger’s seat on Design and Elite models. Foldable door mirrors. Every Vectra and Signum model comes with twin electrically adjustable door mirrors, which are also heated (with an automatic timed cut-off) for fast demisting on wintry mornings. They’re foldable, too, helping avoid bumps and scrapes in tight parking situations. Driver features Cruise control. The easy-to-use, tap-up/tap-down cruise control, is standard on all Vectra and Signum models. It allows you to maintain a steady speed without keeping your foot on the throttle. So it’s more comfortable on long journeys and easier to keep to speed limits too. Adjustable steering column. A steering wheel adjustable for reach and rake, backed by a high level of seating adjustment on all models, makes it easy for drivers of all shapes and sizes to achieve the ideal driving position. Front and rear parking distance sensors. This optional system helps safeguard your car. Sensors provide an audible warning when an object is sensed in front of or behind the vehicle. 17 3/8/07 17:34:54 DAB/MP3/Bluetooth® phone technology. Both Vectra and Signum feature high-tech audio systems that put you in full control of the listening environment with features including DAB digital radio, CD autochanger and an advanced MP3 format stereo radio/CD player. The CD 70 audio unit also features an auxiliary-in socket so you can play tracks direct from your personal MP3 player. Integrated mobile phone* technology is also available featuring voice activation and Bluetooth® wireless connectivity. You’ll find all the details on page 65 of the Equipment section. Electronic Climate Control (ECC). Electronic Climate Control (ECC) lets you choose a different temperature from your fellow front passenger – and can even compensate for the effects of sunlight falling on one side of the car. Comfort features Air conditioning and automatic air conditioning. Air conditioning means plenty of chilled air on hot days and quicker demisting on damp days – plus a safer, fresher travelling environment all year round. Vectra Design models fitted with the latest automatic air conditioning system offer many of the benefits of ECC – including maintenance of a constant temperature and a built-in sunlight sensor – but with air distribution (windscreen, footwell etc) controlled manually and no central display. Sensing features. Headlights that switch on automatically when it gets dark. Wipers that swing into action the moment they sense rain on the windscreen. A rear-view mirror that ‘dips’ when it detects glare from the car behind. All of these features are standard on Design and Elite models. 18 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 18-19 Adjustable front seat centre armrest. Another standard feature that combines comfort and practicality for front seat passengers, the adjustable centre armrest has two-stage storage. There’s a shallow tray – ideal for your mobile phone and loose change – plus a deeper compartment below. *Please refer to the Vauxhall Car and Accessory Price Guide for a list of phone-specific cradles. Electrically operated slide/tilt glass sunroof. A lighter cabin, extra fresh air when you need it – plus a preset function that lets you dial in your preferred setting. Appreciate the high levels of equipment “Better in all key areas; looks, driving and costs.” FleetWeek – 31 August 2005 3/8/07 17:34:58 Vectra. Explore the benefits of flexible space “… headroom is generous, and there’s no arguing with the 500-litre boot.” Auto Express – 7 October 2005 FlexOrganiser® Pack. Consisting of a 3D storage net, side net pocket and four side rail hooks the FlexOrganiser® Pack creates easy, secure and clearly defined storage compartments within the Vectra Estate luggage area, using rails built into the side panels and a flexible arrangement of nets and dividers. Power tailgate. The estate tailgate can be opened and closed automatically using either the remote control key fob or a button located on the inner tailgate and may be stopped in any position. An obstruction-sensing safety mechanism helps prevent accidents when closing the tailgate. Underfloor storage. Vectra Estate utilises every spare inch of space, with an underfloor storage area that’s perfect for carrying items out of sight and away from the luggage area. T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 20-21 Generous luggage area. Hatchback and saloon models offer from 500 to 1050 litres of luggage space; the estate is even more impressive with a class-leading 1850 litres. With the rear seat folded the estate (illustrated above) also provides a little over two metres of load floor length – a massive figure by any standards. Full details of the Vectra’s loadspace dimensions and luggage capacities can be found on page 71. Split-folding rear seat back. All Vectra models feature a 60/40 split-folding rear seat back with folding centre armrest and load-through facility (ideal for longer items of luggage). Both parts of the seat can be folded down in one movement, without removing the head restraints. Integrated roof rails. Full-length, slimline roof rails accentuate the Vectra estate model’s extended roofline as well as providing a practical mounting point for roof carrier accessories such as bicycle carriers and roof boxes. Vectra versatility Load-restraining net. Handily concealed in its own spring-loaded cartridge when not in use, the estate’s vertical load-restraining net can be fixed either behind the rear seat or directly behind the front seats when the rear seat is folded down. This helps prevent luggage from being thrown forward into the passenger area during transit. 21 3/8/07 17:35:02 Extended wheelbase. Signum‘s extended wheelbase – relative to Vectra hatchback and saloon models – helps create a more roomy passenger environment, particularly in the rear. Allied to the car‘s finely adjustable – and reclinable – FlexSpace® seats, it gives the car a quality that is unique in the marketplace. In addition, full-length, slimline roof rails on Exclusiv and Elite models accentuate the car‘s extended roofline as well as providing a practical mounting point for roof carrier accessories such as bicycle carriers and roof boxes. The roof rails are also available as an option on Elegance and Design models. Signum flexibility Thanks to its innate roominess and the innovative FlexSpace® rear seating concept, Signum can be transformed in seconds from a plush executive express featuring two fully contoured rear seats with an additional centre rear seat – ideal for that occasional fifth passenger – into a capacious and refreshingly versatile travelling environment, perfectly equipped to accommodate the differing demands of work, family and friends. 40/20/40 split rear seat. Adding to Signum’s versatility, the rear seat is split 40/20/40 to accommodate the desired blend of passengers and luggage. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 74. Individual rear seats. Slide the two fully contoured individual rear seats back and forth, independently of one another, to achieve the perfect mix of legroom and storage space. There’s also a fold-down rear centre armrest. FlexSpace® seating. With FlexSpace®, you can adjust the rear seat backs to create more room in the luggage compartment… or recline them individually, providing front seat-style comfort. The wide centre armrest provides generous elbow room for two; there’s even a built-in console with twin drinks holders! Full details of the Signum’s loadspace dimensions and luggage capacities can be found on page 71. Generous load area. Fold the rear seat back forward – in a simple, onehanded movement – and you create a massive, flat, 1410 litre load area. Signum. Adjust your space to suit your mood 22 “The car is at its best in the rear. Two sumptuous individual chairs provide a limousine feel with exceptional legroom, and are easily folded to create a huge load area.” Auto Express – 5 October 2005 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 22-23 3/8/07 17:35:07 Active Select. The optional fiveand six-speed automatic transmissions feature an Active Select facility, which enables drivers to switch from automatic to manual sequential mode using a second transmission gate. Experience genuine performance with control “Vauxhall has made a fantastic job of updating the Vectra. It has managed to retain the superlative refinement and cosseting ride… yet sharpen the drive to the extent that it’s now one of the most rewarding cars in this class. The 2.2i engine is a joy.” What Car? – November 2005 Interactive Driving System-Plus (IDS-Plus). IDS-plus delivers the ultimate in driver control. Continuous Damping Control (CDC) senses changes in the vehicle dynamics and automatically adjusts the damper rates – in real time – producing greater comfort, more confident cornering behaviour and sharper handling, with reduced body roll. The Sport switch function allows instant switching to a sharper throttle and more responsive steering – and back again – to suit your mood. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 75. 2.2i 16v direct petrol engine. A high-tech, all-aluminium unit with dual balancer shafts for outstanding smoothness and refinement. The direct injection system increases both power and torque while improving fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. A six-speed manual gearbox is standard. 1.8i 16v petrol engine with Variable Valve Timing. Combining more power and lower fuel consumption, the 140PS 1.8i 16v VVT engine employs Double Continuous Variable Cam Phasing (DCVCP) to provide most of the available torque across a wide rev band. 2.8 litre Turbo engine. Developing 250PS, the 2.8i V6 24v Turbo petrol engine features a twin-scroll turbocharger for rapid response at lower revs and smooth, even, torque distribution. Available with Vectra and Signum Elite six-speed automatic models and Signum Design with manual gearbox. Engines, transmissions and chassis Chassis tuned to UK roads. The UK’s unique road surfaces present a special challenge to chassis engineers. That’s why so much care has been taken tuning the cars’ chassis to our less-than-perfect surfaces. Specific improvements include revised front anti-roll bars and bushes, revised rear suspension bushes and attendant revisions to springs and dampers. There is also a stiffer ‘handling’ bush in the front suspension to enhance the responsiveness of the steering and specific power assistance characteristics for individual models. The process has been so successful that it has become a fundamental part of all future Vauxhall development programmes. Advanced diesel line-up. Both the 120PS 1.9CDTi and 150PS 1.9CDTi 16v common rail diesel engines offer strong performance allied to smooth power delivery and rigorous emissions control; the 16-valve 150PS version is particularly powerful for an engine in this class. And the 3.0CDTi V6 24v engine boosts power even further, making 184PS available to Vectra and Signum drivers. 25 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 24-25 3/8/07 17:35:11 Additional security. Every Vectra and Signum model is packed with security features, including central deadlocking and an engine immobiliser. Hatchback and estate models also feature a luggage compartment cover to hide valuables from prying eyes. Remote control alarm system. Ultrasonic security alarm system features forced entry detection, along with tilt, movement and rear glass breakage sensors, plus a power siren complete with its own power supply. Anti-lock Braking System (ABS). The system has been shown to help reduce stopping distances, particularly on slippery surfaces. By preventing the wheels from locking up, it also allows you to retain control of the steering during emergency braking. Safety and security Active-safety front seat head restraints. Activated by the weight of the occupant’s body being forced back into the seat, the restraint moves forwards and upright in the event of a rear impact, helping to reduce whiplash injuries. Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL). This advanced bi-xenon lighting system ensures the headlight beams are always aimed in the direction you’re about to go – and not necessarily the direction the front of the car is already pointing in! As Autocar magazine put it in a test report: ‘AFL is easy to get used to and hugely improves visibility for night driving’. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 75. 26 T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 26-27 ISOFIX child seat restraint system. This rigid anchoring mechanism, fitted to the outer rear seats, virtually eliminates the dangers that can result from improper installation, particularly when used with a Vauxhall accessory ISOFIX child seat. Six airbags. All models come with driver’s and front passenger’s airbags along with front seat side-impact and fullsize curtain airbags. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD). Works in conjunction with the ABS system to distribute the applied braking force between the wheels most able to use it. This allows the car to brake in a stable manner, whatever load you’re carrying. Cornering Brake Control (CBC). Makes the car easier to control in extreme situations, especially when braking sharply on a bend. Particularly effective when carrying out emergency manoeuvres. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 74. Emergency Brake Assist (EBA). Detects the urgency with which the brake pedal is pressed and rapidly increases the pressure to the maximum the system can provide, shortening stopping distances. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 74. Electronic Stability Programme (ESP-Plus). Senses when the vehicle is about to slide on a bend and applies braking on up to three wheels, correcting the slide and helping you regain control more rapidly. The system also incorporates traction control. Further explanation can be found in the Technical data section on page 74. Feel safe and protected at all times “The car is now a more complete package.” The Sun – September 2005 3/8/07 17:35:14 VECTRA AND SIGNUM T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1.indd 28-29 Vectra and Signum.

The colour monitor has a split-screen facility to display half the screen as a map and half as easy-to-follow directional arrows. The audible direction guidance prompt gives details of road numbers and motorway junction numbers, while you can also plan your route to avoid toll roads, if required. The CD 70 also features Traffic Message Channel (TMC), a specific application of RDS used for broadcasting real-time traffic information, delivered to the driver either visually or verbally. TMC can also offer dynamic route guidance – alerting the driver to a problem on the planned route and calculating an alternative route to avoid the incident. ● 18 ● 19 Satellite navigation The CD 70 satellite navigation system uses the international network of GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites, linked to a comprehensive CD-ROM mapping system, to determine your precise location and guide you to your chosen destination virtually anywhere in mainland Britain. ● 18 ● ● 18 ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● ● Standard features ● Automatic re-routing on request ● CD-ROMs available for all major European countries ● Exact location of vehicle using the GPS (Global Positioning System) and speed sensor ● Choice of four different route types ● Store up to 100 personal destinations ● Last 10 destinations stored automatically Digital Audio Broadcast (DAB) facility Now widely available in the UK, digital audio broadcasts offer the user a variety of advantages over traditional FM, starting with the digital quality sound which is immune to any hiss or crackle. You’ll often find a broader range of stations on offer too, many of which are not available on FM, and listening to them couldn’t be easier – you simply select the station, by name, from the displayed list, thus removing the need to retune or look for stations when travelling around. Some stations will even display the artists’ names and song titles on the car’s graphic display, while they’re played. To further help you appreciate the digital sound, our CDC 40 DAB-compatible audio unit offers 35 watts per channel and plays through our highest quality seven-speaker system. Auxiliary-in socket The auxiliary-in socket allows you to connect your portable MP3 music player directly into the car’s audio system. All you need is your music player and a suitable connecting lead and you can listen to all your favourite tunes through your car’s speaker system. When using an MP3 player in the car the majority of the controls, such as track selection, remain solely on the player, while only the volume is controlled via the car’s regular audio controls. Mobile phone system with Bluetooth® Vauxhall’s factory-fit dual-band mobile phone system has been considerably enhanced. Now fully integrated into the audio and communication system, it also features voice control and will connect wirelessly to phones with Bluetooth® technology. All the required information is displayed on the graphic information display when a mobile phone is in use, while the menus are easily navigated by either the steering wheel audio controls or the multi-function button on the radio. Certain functions can also be controlled by voice activation. CD 70 satellite navigation split-screen facility. Mounted on the centre console, the phone system base unit can be fitted with a cradle (available as an accessory) for many different mobile phones. A list of compatible cradles is featured in the Car and Accessory Price Guide. MP3 CD player An MP3 is a compressed sound or music file which, due to its small size, takes up less space on a compact disc, which means that more tracks can be recorded onto a CD. It’s possible to fit almost 10 hours of music onto one CD, and, in a way, turns a single-disc CD/MP3 player into a multi-disc autochanger.

To determine total carrying capacity, deduct kerbweight from gross vehicle weight. Note that the figure obtained will include the weight of the driver, passengers and any optional equipment or accessories. The maximum roof rack loading should not exceed 90kg for Vectra hatchback and saloon models, or 100kg for Vectra estate and Signum models. The maximum towing weights are based on the ability of the car, with two occupants of 70kg each, to restart on a 12% gradient, which is approximately 1 in 8.3, at sea level. At altitudes above 1500 metres, the engine output may drop with a corresponding reduction in towing capability. Any extra weight, such as luggage or additional passengers, should be deducted from the maximum towing weight. With a trailer fully loaded, maximum noseweight should not exceed 78kg for Vectra hatchback and saloon and Signum models, or 85kg for Vectra estate models.

To determine total carrying capacity, deduct kerbweight from gross vehicle weight. Note that the figure obtained will include the weight of the driver, passengers and any optional equipment or accessories. The maximum roof rack loading should not exceed 90kg for Vectra hatchback and saloon models, or 100kg for Vectra estate and Signum models. The maximum towing weights are based on the ability of the car, with two occupants of 70kg each, to restart on a 12% gradient, which is approximately 1 in 8.3, at sea level. At altitudes above 1500 metres, the engine output may drop with a corresponding reduction in towing capability. Any extra weight, such as luggage or additional passengers, should be deducted from the maximum towing weight. With a trailer fully loaded, maximum noseweight should not exceed 78kg for Vectra hatchback and saloon and Signum models, or 85kg for Vectra estate models.

Reduced stopping distance with EBA. Technical data Stopping distance without EBA. D1 Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Cornering Brake Control (CBC) D1. Cornering brake control makes the car easier to control in extreme situations, particularly when braking sharply on a bend. It is particularly effective when carrying out emergency procedures, such as avoiding a child’s ball that’s rolled out from the kerb. The system works by sensing the different rotational speeds of the individual road wheels and co-ordinating the level of braking pressure applied to each wheel. CBC is an integral part of Vectra and Signum’s comprehensive ABS. D2 Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) D2. Emergency brake assist detects the urgency with which the brake pedal is pressed and rapidly increases the pressure to the maximum the system can provide, shortening stopping distances. It also enhances pedal feel. Signum FlexSpace® rear seating D4. Signum’s rear centre seat is ideal for that occasional fifth passenger. Alternatively you can swivel the padded section to reveal a useful storage console. There’s even a pair of built-in drinks holders. Naturally, the seat comes with its own lap and diagonal inertia-reel seatbelt, cleverly concealed in the headlining. The two individual rear seats are fully contoured, front seat-style, for optimum comfort and can be slid back and forth by up to 130mm to achieve the desired mix of legroom/luggage space. In addition, a recline facility for the two individual rear seats lets your passengers achieve their most comfortable travelling position. D3 74 Electronic Stability Programme-plus (ESP-plus) D3. ESP-plus provides enhanced yaw compensation during understeer or oversteer. The system works by monitoring the front and rear of the car, comparing their respective directions of travel going in to the bend with the input received through the steering wheel. If the vehicle starts to slide, it applies corrective braking to the appropriate wheel, or wheels, compensating for the slide and helping you regain control more rapidly. ESP-plus offers additional safety in the form of two-way traction control, which helps prevent the driving wheels from spinning, under acceleration, on slippery surfaces. T14902 Vec & Sig 08 Ed1 SPEC.ind74 74 D4 The rear seat itself is split 40/20/40 to provide ample space for passengers and/or luggage. The seat cushions of the two individual outer rear seats slide forward as the backs fold in a simple, one-handed movement, creating a large flat load floor. 3/8/07 17:38:03 Sport switch D5. The functions of the Sport switch aren’t limited to suspension control. When activated, it also affects the steering and accelerator pedal. The drive-by-wire throttle is altered electronically, leading to a sharper engine response and crisper acceleration, while the map of the power assisted steering is also adjusted, giving the driver a more positive initial turn-in on corner entry. D5 Technical data Interactive Driving System-plus (IDS-plus) with Continuous Damping Control (CDC) D5. The Interactive Driving System (IDS-plus) chassis offers the driver an even more sporting driving experience, thanks mainly to the electronic control of the suspension. Pressing the Sport switch activates the CDC function – CDC monitors the roll, pitch and yaw of the car, and changes the rate of damping on each wheel to optimise the handling, effectively stiffening the suspension – but selectively. This means the vehicle will exhibit a reduced rate of roll and pitch, making it more responsive during direction changes and more settled during the braking/turn-in/acceleration transition when cornering. CDC is a major breakthrough in the segment. Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL) Adaptive Forward Lighting is a sophisticated new lighting system that allows drivers to see around corners and see further ahead at motorway speeds. This optional bi-xenon system employs two main functions: D6 Curving Light D6. Controlled by a combination of steering wheel movement and sensors for the vehicle’s speed and yaw angle, the Curving Light function allows the headlight beam to move up to 15 degrees left or right of the straight ahead position. This ensures the light is always following the trajectory plotted by the front wheels, rather than simply pointing straight ahead. Cornering Light D7. In order that junctions may be viewed more clearly before the turn has been made, Vauxhall has incorporated the Cornering Light function into the AFL system. An additional reflector, within the headlight unit, will broadly illuminate the roadside in the chosen direction of travel, depending on the vehicle’s speed, steering angle and directional indicators. Motorway Light At speeds above 65mph, AFL raises the dipped headlight beam to extend the range of vision for increased safety at higher speed. The beam automatically returns to its normal position when the car falls below that speed. 75 D7 T14902 Vec & Sig COVER.indd 1 3/8/07 17:32:54
