I've been driving the Symbioz Full Hybrid with the iconic trim for 3,500 km. I test-drove both cars. I think the win goes to the Symbioz. Good quality at a family-friendly price. Unfortunately the Opel is simply too expensive. Strangely, what never really gets mentioned is that the Symbioz's suspension is absolutely superb.

Mitsubishi Outlander

The Mitsubishi Outlander is a sensible family SUV that blends roomy practicality with a calm, assured ride—ideal for school runs and weekend getaways. It won’t set pulses racing, but its tidy interior, straightforward equipment and low-stress ownership make it a smart, unfussy pick for buyers who prefer reliability over flash.

It's better to choose the modes yourself (electric/internal-combustion) than to let the car decide.
Plenty of storage, but small.
Good handling, reasonable fuel consumption off the highway, but penalizing on the highway.
Lots of annoying "driver-assistance" features, fortunately deactivatable, but you have to do it at every start.
