PERSONALITY
AND STYLE FROM
ANY ANGLE
Some cars look sporty from any angle, and the Zafira Tourer has a distinctly
dynamic feel. With a strong, broad stance it’s reassuringly solid, while bold
design details – like the boomerang headlights and chrome accents – add to the
premium look and are bound to create an impression. No matter where you go.

THE POWER OF
SELF EXPRESSION
If you thought all people carriers drove the same think again. With bespoke
steering settings specifically tuned to the tough demands of Ireland’s roads and a
Watt’s link rear suspension set-up for a smoother, more stable ride, the Zafira
Tourer combines exemplary grip with serious agility – no matter how many
passengers are on board.

WELCOME TO THE
CONTROL CENTRE
The best cars are designed around the driver. Slip behind the wheel of the Zafira
Tourer and you’ll have the immediate impression that everything’s been taken care
of. Strikingly styled and comfortably trimmed with premium materials throughout,
the Tourer provides conclusive proof that we wholeheartedly support an active
family’s needs, but always have the driver’s interests firmly in mind.
Thanks to the super-slim A-pillar design, visibility in the Zafira Tourer is
outstanding – particularly with the impressive panoramic windscreen. The cabin
is well-organised, thanks to the customisable FlexRail®centre console storage
system. And everything falls readily to hand. In short: the Zafira Tourer leaves
the driver comfortably in control – and passengers safely provided for.

CLIMB IN
CHILL OUT
Don’t think of it as a travelling compartment. Think of it as a comfort zone.
With Opel’s innovative Lounge Seating system, rear passengers have never felt
more relaxed. The system converts in seconds from three individual second row
seats, by sliding them rearward and inward to create two welcoming, captain-style
chairs. At the same time, the centre seat converts to an armrest, providing added
comfort. A clever rethinking of Opel’s legendary Flex7®seating system adds to the
travelling experience. It means greater back and forth adjustment. Easy-entry third
row seats. Plus a completely flat load floor once the rear seats have been folded.

MORE FLEXIBILITY
FOR LASTING
COMFORT
Opel is famous for its flexible seating, and over
the last two decades we’ve honed seven-seat
solutions to perfection. Our benchmark Flex7®
technology allows you to fold single seats flat
or tip them up to get in and out. And now on SE
and Elite models Lounge Seating takes Flex7®
to a new level of luxury – by letting you turn the
three individual second-row seats into two
welcoming captain-style chairs with an armrest
and extra space.
1. Third-row seating. All models come with a practical third row of seats to make
the Zafira Tourer a full-on seven-seater*. Both outside second-row seats slide
forward and tilt up – so you can easily get in and out of the back.
2. Turn three seats into two. Lounge Seating is a great way of really spoiling
second-row passengers – or of keeping squabbling kids apart. The centre seat of
the second row flips down to make an armrest, and the two outside seats slide back
and away from the doors, giving you even more elbow- and legroom with the
minimum of fuss.

Please note, for illustrative purposes only. The lounge seating system is not available in Ireland with the seat trim illustrated.
*When all seats are occupied within the Zafira Tourer the passenger side third-row seat is only useable by a passenger
up to a maximum height of 150cm.

3. Flat-folding seats. Loads come in all shapes and sizes, and
so does the luggage area in the Zafira Tourer. Each individual
rear passenger seat folds totally flat so you can carry
passengers and bulky loads at one and the same time.
4. Extra-large load space. Switch from limousine-like comfort
to all-purpose carrying ability in a matter of seconds – so you
can transport that furniture, DIY kit or leisure equipment with
ease. With rear seats folded flat, the Zafira Tourer boasts a
useful 1860 litres of luggage space.

SAFEGUARD YOUR
INTERESTS
Whether you’re driving alone or with your family, it’s comforting to know the
Zafira Tourer protects you all, with a full complement of state-of-the-art
active and passive safety features.
Select the innovative front camera system option available on
SE and Elite models and the Zafira Tourer will read the speed
limit signs and display a reminder on the facia, helping you keep
safe and legal. Leave your lane without a signal and it can also
warn you – just in case you’re tired or distracted. The system
also constantly indicates the distance to the vehicle ahead, and
alerts the driver if a collision is imminent. It will even slow you
down automatically should the need arise, giving you time to
apply the brakes.
The steel safety frame and airbag protection system. It’s good
to know you’re surrounded by quality safety components. Every
Zafira Tourer is built around an energy-absorbing, high-strength
steel frame, and is fitted with front-, side- and curtain-mounted
airbags that cushion your head, pelvis and upper body in the
event of an accident.

Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR).
Utilising the front camera function,
this clever system makes sure you’re
constantly made aware of speed limits,
even when temporary signs are put up.
TSR continually monitors road signs, and
gives you a warning if you unintentionally
stray over the limit. It can even read and
display motorway electronic signs
related to speed limits like rain or
snow warnings.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW).
LDW uses the front camera system
to recognise lane marking lines, and
emits an audible warning if your vehicle
leaves its lane unintentionally (i.e.
without you signalling), preventing
potential accidents and reminding
you of inattention or tiredness. The
LDW system can be deactivated via
a facia switch.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with
Forward Collision Alert (FCA).
ACC uses a radar sensor to automatically
maintain a gap from the vehicle in front.
It incorporates Following Distance
Indication (FDI) which constantly shows
the distance to the leading vehicle in the
instrument panel, helping you to
maintain a safe distance. In addition,
FCA – active at speeds above walking
pace – gives visual and audible warnings
if you approach a slower-moving vehicle
too fast and uses Automatic Brake
Intervention technology to apply the
brakes, slowing the car to as little as
15km/h if required.
Side Blind Spot Alert. Available as part
of the Perimeter Protection Pack on SE
and Elite models, this ultrasonic-based
system helps prevent a potential collision
with a vehicle in the neighbouring lane by
continuously screening the blind spots on
both sides of the car and provides a visual
warning if the indicator is set to change
to a lane where another car is detected.

16
Intelligent Light Ranging (ILR) Available in conjunction with AFL as part of the
Premium Forward Lighting Pack when the Front Camera System is specified, ILR
extends the range of both headlights up to about 350 metres at speeds over 50km/h.
ILR also automatically adjusts the spread to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers. And if
you’re approaching an upward gradient, it’ll even raise the beam to give you a better
view of the road.
INTELLIGENT LIGHTING
FOR EVERY ENVIRONMENT
Opel’s intelligent Adaptive Forward Lighting (AFL) technology is
an invaluable optional addition to your Zafira Tourer, especially if
you do a lot of driving at night. The headlights change their
pattern to suit the location and the weather. Sensing where you
need the light most, they help you see around corners and even
dip automatically when something is coming the other way. You
can also adjust the system for European driving.

17
Motorway light. 140 metre range,
higher and brighter than normal low
beam, without dazzle (over 100km/h).
Static cornering light. Throws light
90 degrees left or right for enhanced
lateral vision (up to 40km/h, also
when reversing).
Country road light. Wider spread
and brighter light than normal low
beam. 70 metre range without dazzle
(55-100km/h).
Dynamic curve light. Activated by
steering angle and speed, the headlights
swivel up to 15 degrees into the curve
(any speed).
Town light. Wider and lower spread of
light. Activated by vehicle speed together
with street lighting (30-55km/h).
High beam with assist. Automatically
switches from high to low beam as it
detects oncoming or proceeding vehicles
(over 40km/h).
Pedestrian area light. Wider spread
of light (an extra eight degrees left and
right) illuminates potential hazards
(up to 30km/h).
Adverse weather light. Wiper or rain
sensor activated for better vision in bad
weather conditions (up to 70km/h).
Advanced Adaptive Forward Lighting.

ASSISTANCE
WHEN YOU NEED
IT MOST
Wherever you’re heading it’s good to know
that Zafira Tourer will make getting there as
stress free as possible.

1. Hill Start Assist. Standard on the Zafira Tourer SE, Elite and all
automatic models – Hill Start Assist stops you rolling back
unintentionally on steep hills, by automatically releasing the brake
at just the right moment when pulling away on a gradient.
2. Rear view camera and display. Mounted on the tailgate
handle, the RVC gives you a clear view of the area behind the car,
displaying your rear bumper as a useful point of reference. The
picture shows up on your infotainment screen, with horizontal lines
overlaid as a scale so you can easily judge the distance to objects
and other cars. Working in conjunction with the front and rear
parking distance sensors, you quickly appreciate just how easy it
is to reverse the car safely. Available as a pack together with the
Navi 600 satellite navigation system, it’s an option on SE and Elite
models.
3. Advanced Park Assist. Parallel parking will never be the same
again. This smart option not only tells you when you drive by a
suitably-sized parking space 4. , but also – while you’re actually
parking – shows you exactly how far to turn the steering wheel
and how far you can drive backwards and forwards without an
unwanted bump 5. . This feature is available as part of the
optional Perimeter Protection Pack.

SMOOTH OR SPORTY
– YOU DECIDE
The Zafira Tourer doesn’t look like a run-of-the-mill people
carrier and it doesn’t drive like one either. The ride is smooth,
composed and incredibly responsive – thanks to the Watt’s link
rear suspension system combined with a long wheelbase and
wide track. The optional FlexRide Adaptive Stability
Technology, further enhances the driving experience by
automatically adjusting ride settings to suit your driving style.

1. Superior suspension. For maximum grip and a comfortable ride, the Zafira Tourer
features a Watt’s link rear axle design, first used on the latest Astra range. The system
provides greater lateral control, improving the car’s composure in corners and
delivering similar performance to more complex multilink systems.
2. FlexRide chassis settings. With a mere touch of a button the optional FlexRide
system allows you to change the Zafira Tourer’s whole driving dynamics – from ‘Sport’
to ‘Tour’ and back again. Using Continuous Damping Control technology, FlexRide
automatically adjusts the dampers for excellent grip. In ‘Tour’ mode, it chooses the
best settings for gentler straight-line driving. Switch to ‘Sport’ mode and it instantly
provides stiffer damping and swifter throttle response for more dynamic driving,
sharpens the speed-sensitive steering and raises the shift-up points of the automatic
transmission (if fitted) to a higher rpm. It also changes the colour of the ambient
instrument lighting – from a cool white to a more dynamic red effect.
