The Opel Cascada is a four-passenger fabric-roof convertible,[5] manufactured and marketed by Opel across a single generation for model years 2013-2019,[6] prioritizing year-round touring comfort over sportiness.
Nearly identical badge engineered variants were marketed globally using the Cascada nameplate under four General Motors brands: Opel, Vauxhall, Holden and Buick — and the Opel Cabrio nameplate in Spain.[7]
The 2+2 convertible was engineered at Opel's International Technical Engineering Center in Rüsselsheim, Germany, and was styled under the direction of Mark Adams, head of Opel design, at Opel's Rüsselsheim Design Center — with Andrew Dyson (exterior) and Elizabeth Wetzel (interior).
After debuting at the 2012 Geneva Auto Show, the brand variants were manufactured in Gliwice, Poland, up until assembly ended on 28 June 2019[8][9] — with a combined total of 48,500 produced[10][11] and the final Cascada manufactured for the US market.[11]
The Cascada derives its name from the Spanish word for waterfall.
