SRi – lowered sports suspension

FlexRide (Adaptive Stability Technology) system
FlexRide offers drivers the choice of three distinct
driving modes – Normal (default setting), Sport or
Tour.
• Sport mode: This stiffens the car’s suspension and

sharpens steering and throttle responses. It also
raises the threshold at which the ESP and traction
control systems are activated, enhancing dynamic
performance.

• Tour mode: Ideal for long motorway journeys, the

Tour mode adjusts the dampers to a softer setting
to create a perceptibly smoother ride and further
enhance New Insignia’s ride comfort

• Continuous damping control: Utilises data from up

to 11 variables including acceleration, braking and
cornering to constantly control the suspension for
optimum stability, driver engagement and comfort.
Operates in all three driving modes

• Gas-filled rear dampers: New Insignia’s rear

dampers are increased to 37mm diameter for
enhanced performance

BRAKES

• Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
• Dual circuit, diagonally split braking system

Gross vehicle weight

is the total permissible weight of the vehicle including passengers and their luggage. The

maximum roof rack loading

should not exceed 100kg. The

maximum towing weights

are based on the

ability of the car, with two occupants of 75kg each, to restart on a 12% gradient, which is approximately 1 in 8.3, at sea level. At altitudes above 1500 metres, the engine output may drop with a corresponding reduction in
towing capability. Any extra weight, such as luggage or additional passengers, should be deducted from the maximum towing weight. With a trailer fully loaded,

maximum noseweight

should not exceed 85kg. Always fit

Vauxhall towing attachments and accessories available from your Vauxhall retailer. They are designed specifically for Vauxhall models and carry a 12-month guarantee.
