  Opel Ascona - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Opel Manta coupé was launched on September 9, followed by the Opel Ascona on October 28 in two and four-door sedan forms, plus a two-door station wagon, called the Voyage, which was meant as a rather luxurious family car.
The Ascona B retained the same engine range as its predecessor, although the 1.9 L engine was increased to 2.0 L in 1978, and versions with higher compression ratio and needing 98 octane gas, dubbed S (super), were available alongside the 90 octane N (normal) models.
Opel continued to use the Ascona nameplate until the Vectra was launched in 1989, although the Cavalier name was retained by Vauxhall until 1995.

 Opel Ascona & Wagon
The "Ascona" is the correct Opel name for these models, although the parts and sales books first identified these vehicles as the Opel "1900," based on the fender and trunk lid "1900" badges.
Although some Ascona's were upgraded for higher performance (a memorable "Car and Driver" magazine project is still in existence), most Ascona's were driven as commuter vehicles, and very few are around today.
All Asconas, including the 2-door sedan, the 4-door sedan, and the station wagon versions, shared the same 1.9 liter driveline with the 1971-1975 Opel Manta.

In addition to its sophisticated 16-valve engine, performance was boosted still further by intensive wind tunnel testing, resulting in a lower drag coefficient and increased stability (front end lift was cut by 50%, while that of the rear was reduced by almost 100%!).

The Ascona, on the other hand, is a bit bland.
