The Opel Antara is a compact crossover SUV designed and produced by Opel from 2006 to 2015. The Antara, based on the Theta platform, shares its underpinnings and powertrains with the Chevrolet Captiva. However, it is offering only five seats instead of seven, and has a different exterior and interior design.
In the United Kingdom, the car is sold as the Vauxhall Antara, in Australasia the car is badged as the Holden Captiva, and in the United States and Canada it had been sold as the Saturn Vue. The Antara was marketed as the GMC Terrain in the Middle East,Daewoo Winstorm MaXX in South Korea, and as the Chevrolet Captiva Sport in the Americas except Chile where it's sold as an Opel.
The Antara was first previewed by the three-door Opel Antara GTC (Gran Turismo Crossover) concept car, presented at the 2005 Frankfurt Motor Show. The Antara GTC is based on the three-door Chevrolet T2X SUV. A similar three-door SUV was later displayed at the January 2006 New York International Auto Show as the Saturn PreVue. The production Antara is a longer five-door SUV, similar to the Chevrolet S3X and the closely related Chevrolet Captiva.
