Vauxhall’s rakish GTC is now available with the refined and powerful 1.6 CDTi Whisper Diesel engine.
It is the latest model to benefit from the economical new engine, following its introduction in the Astra, Meriva and Zafira Tourer.
The engine replaces the 1.7 CDTi, providing 133bhp and 236lb/ft of torque to ensure its refinement and economy is matched by its performance, delivered through an improved six-speed manual transmission.
Available in Sport, Limited Edition and Sri trims, equipped with Start/Stop plus a braking energy recuperation system as standard, the GTC 1.6 CDTi delivers fuel economy of up to 68.9mpg on the combined cycle and has CO emissions of just 104g/km and 109g/km.
Already Euro 6 compliant, the 1.6 CDTi is one of the best engines in its class for noise and vibration thanks to an efficient combustion process with multiple injection, redesigned components and the use of acoustic covers.
The GTC can be ordered with the new engine for prices starting at £22,260.
