Vauxhall Frontera
Vauxhall Grandland
VS
The Frontera feels like a bruiser from the analogue era — raw, rugged and surprisingly capable off-road, ideal if you crave adventure and don't mind a bit of mechanical charm. The Grandland, by contrast, is a slick, family-friendly crossover loaded with modern tech, efficient engines and a comfortable ride, so pick it if daily refinement and practicality top your list.
Vauxhall Frontera
Peugeot 2008
VS
If you want unashamedly rugged, the Opel Frontera still wears its rough‑and‑ready off‑road badge with chunky looks and simple, go‑anywhere mechanics, whereas the Peugeot 2008 plays the smarter, city‑first crossover with sleek styling and the tech you actually use every day. Pick the Frontera for honest durability and a sense of adventure; pick the 2008 for refinement, economy and an interior that feels a lot newer than its price tag suggests.
Nissan Qashqai
Vauxhall Frontera
VS
The Nissan Qashqai is the smart, urban-friendly crossover that blends a polished ride, modern safety kit and frugal engines, while the Opel Frontera answers with old-school toughness and off-road chops rather than plush refinement. Buy the Qashqai for daily comfort, low running costs and gadgetry; choose the Frontera only if you need a rugged weekend warrior and don’t mind sacrificing creature comforts.
Dacia Duster
Vauxhall Frontera
VS
The Dacia Duster is the sensible new-school pick — affordable, economical and surprisingly well packaged with modern safety and infotainment for the money; the Opel Frontera, meanwhile, is a proper old-school body-on-frame bruiser that still appeals to buyers who prize simple, rugged off-road ability and don’t mind rough edges. If you want a trouble-free everyday SUV that feels like a smart purchase, take the Duster; if you crave raw 4x4 character for weekend trails and enjoy tinkering, the Frontera is the charming, slightly dusty alternative.
