A thoroughly bad cheap car. Feels like a C3 Aircross for the poor.

That's a reason to change employers! Terrible car.

It already has a nickname, "Klapperchen"

I think any Dacia is better!

Automatic gearbox and certain features, like the windshield wipers that aren’t optional; the trunk capacity is larger on the 5-seat Frontera.

I just like the Opel better (maybe only because I'm very disappointed in VW and therefore also in its subsidiaries).

I bought the Opel Frontera GS 145PS after also testing the VW T‑Roc; so far I've driven about 5,800 km in it.

My purchase decision was based on the following criteria:
- modern design that stands out from the crowd
- low fuel consumption
- very good seats and plenty of space front and rear
- large, practical boot
- good performance characteristics
- very easy to get into
- simple controls, partly with physical buttons
- clear, well‑laid‑out cockpit

Opel has clearly skimped here. Misaligned panel gaps, no position/parking light, patchy workmanship and ill‑fitting parts — for example the partition between the passenger footwell and the engine bay — the owner's manual is inadequate and at times reads like a fairy tale; many of the functions it describes are nowhere to be found. They simply don't exist. And the claimed fuel consumption? Even with normal driving — that is, without acceleration orgies — it's unattainable.

More options and more room for discounts and negotiation, just as comfortable, better than a Hyundai Ioniq 5 (which is not comfortable at all), a Toyota bZ4X (feels cramped and has little space), a Tesla Model Y Premium (a bit too high-tech for me but otherwise fine), a Jaecoo 5 (entry-level, comfort impeccable but no options and little tech), and an Omoda (less comfortable and very few options). This is all a personal opinion — we drove the cars mentioned above and the Skoda seems the best value for money with good comfort, a variety of options and reliable after-sales service close to us.

Well‑thought-out and practical car (85x MY2024) that unfortunately lets you down because of system bugs and irritating driver‑assist systems that can't cope with ordinary autumn or winter weather without throwing up error messages and warnings.
