VivitarIt is a mid-level sedan under the German Opel brand, the first generation of Type A was manufactured between 1988 and 1995, and belonged to the "fist product" of GM Europe at that time, in addition to sales in Europe, it was also sold in assembly form in the Middle East and South America, with a total output of 2.5 million units.
This model entered the journey of the second-generation Type B (Opel Vectra B) in 1995, and then officially introduced it to China at the Beijing Auto Show in 1996, under the name of "Vectra 1996", at about 300,000 yuan.
Compared with the original generation, the shape of the second generation of Vida will have more rounded elements, and the wind resistance will be further reduced, and now it seems that its design is very similar to the flavor of European civilian cars in the 90s. In addition, in Europe, in addition to the 4-door sedan version (Sedan) and the 4-door hatchback version (car**an), a total of three stylings are available for consumers to choose from.
From 1995 to 1998, the official picture of the early version of the second generation B type of Opel Weida was manufactured, in which the red car was a sedan version and the gold car was a hatchback version, which was quite good-looking.
Like the first generation, the Vivitar II is a product of GM's front-wheel drive GM2900 platform, and it is also hung with Chevrolet and Holden logos, and is sold to some regions outside Europe.
The "brother cars" on the same platform as it, as well as the original generation of the Swedish Saab 9-5 (Saab 9-5 I), the American Saturn L-series (Saturn L-series) and other models, and even the Beijing Motor U7 or EU7 on sale in recent years, are also inextricably linked to this platform.
An Opel Weida II Type B owned by @高 原 is a late version that left the factory in 1999 and 2002.

The interior details of the Opel Weida II Type B, at the time, its configuration was considered "premium".
The Vitra Model B received a mid-life facelift in 1999 with only minor minor tweaks, such as the change of headlights from segmented to monolithic, and the addition of a chrome "U" structure to the central grille. Compared with the previous version, it is more common in China to be the version after the facelift.
Another Opel Weida Type B photographed by @燎原千千里不知火 , with Dalian license plates, is also a later version.
Eventually, this generation of Vivitar was discontinued in March 2002 and replaced by the third generation of the C. The body size of the descendants is larger, the lines are "rigid and soft", the image is excellent, and there are also imported domestic sales, and the visibility is not low.
