Frequently asked questions:
Can you sleep in an Opel/Vauxhall Zafira?
You can – Zafira Tourer’s boot is big enough – 180cm long (up to 198cm if you push the front seats forward) and 82cm (98cm in the middle) tall and 105cm wide. That is a pretty good sleeping area. The seats don’t fold completely flat on the older models but they do on the newer ones. See our DIY camping conversions for ideas on how you could convert your Zafira into a camper.
How many seats does the Zafira Tourer have?
The Zafira Tourer is a seven-seater vehicle, with three rows of seats. The second row features three individual seats that can slide back and forth to increase legroom, while the third row features two individual seats that can be folded flat to create extra luggage space when not in use.
What is the fuel efficiency of the Zafira Tourer?
The fuel efficiency of the Zafira Tourer varies depending on the engine and transmission chosen. The most fuel-efficient engine option is the 1.6-liter diesel engine, which can achieve up to 68.9 mpg (mileage per gallon) on the combined cycle. The petrol engines have a lower fuel efficiency, with the most efficient petrol engine achieving up to 41.5 mpg on the combined cycle.
What safety features are available in the Zafira Tourer?
The Zafira Tourer comes with a range of safety features as standard, including ABS (anti-lock braking system), ESP (electronic stability program), hill start assist, and six airbags. Higher-spec models may also feature additional safety features such as lane departure warning, rear-view camera, and automatic emergency braking.
