Opel Meriva Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2002–2006) — First Generation
The first-generation Opel Meriva Compact Van is a small family hauler for city streets and school runs. You get a tall cabin in a short body, so passengers and bags share space without a full-size MPV.
You can match an Opel Meriva engine and transmission to how you drive. A 1.4 MT gasoline manual suits short trips, a 1.3 MT diesel manual covers longer runs, and a 1.8 MTA gasoline robotic gearbox cuts clutch work. These Compact Van examples use a front-wheel-drive drivetrain; other powertrain pairings existed too.
