  Motoring - Opel Meriva   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Meriva is based on the Opel Corsa floorpan, but clever design means it is not much smaller inside and out (except for overall length) than its bigger brother the Zafira, which is based on Opel Astra underpinnings.
The key to the Meriva's versatility is its wheelbase, which, at 2 630 mm, almost matches that of the larger Zafira (2 694 mm).
Meriva passengers benefit in both the front and rear from a high seat position, which assures good visibility and convenient entry and exit.

 Irish Times Article - A most practical newcomer   (Site not responding. Last check: )
Meriva should be thoroughly familiar in the Opel nomenclature by this time next year.
Opel, thankfully, isn't giving it that designation but Ford is, with its new Fusion, based on the Fiesta.
The new Meriva was developed along these lines with a Corsa drivetrain, the front suspension of the Astra, the rear suspension of the Astra station wagon, and the Vectra's steering column.

 Geneva 2008: Opel Meriva, a new take on the MPV - Autoblog
The Meriva's small footprint would lend itself well to the urban confines Opel expects the majority of buyers to be based out of, and the FlexDoors, a modern take on the suicide doors of yore, should make ingress and egress easier for the kiddies and anyone else banished to the back of the mini-bus.
Opel wanted to maintain the stylistic edge of a high belt-line, which normally impedes rearward visibility, but the slopping rear windows and D-pillar might make blind spots a bit more bearable when some version of the Meriva makes it to production around the turn of the decade.
Opel's own original Zafira was launched to equal acclaim when it pushed the boundaries of the C-segment.

The Opel Meriva added a new dimension to the minivan segment when it was introduced in May 2003, and has been market leader in Europe since then.
In addition to the new grille with wide chrome crossbar, the Meriva's face is defined by the bumper with large central air intake, side air intakes and integrated round fog lamps.
The Opel Meriva not only makes a statement in registration statistics, but has also earned the respect of professional testers: in 2004, it won ten comparison tests as well as seven first-place victories in the German trade journal "AutoBild".

Opel were quick to follow the Scenic with the innovative Zafira which became the new class benchmark with its Flex 7 seating system.
Based predominantly on the Corsa platform (but with some bits of Astra too) the Meriva is 4040mm long and 1694mm high, between a Corsa and an Astra in length and as high as a Zafira.
The exterior design conforms to the current Opel design identity with corporate face and sharply delineated body side swage line that dives in the front wing in parallel to the outer edge of the lamp, and rear lamps and boot aperture treated in a similar way to the Corsa.

In the regular five-seat configuration, the Meriva has three rear seats, but the two outer seats can be moved to their rearmost position and the centre seat folded away for added leg- and shoulder room.

 2003 Meriva
The new model, previewed by the Opel Concept M, will be sold as a Vauxhall in the UK, an Opel in continental Europe and as a Chevrolet in Brazil and most other markets.
Opel technical executive Hans H. Demant continued: "The Meriva adds to the current design language of Opel a new accent, continues the first-class quality feel in the interior that the Vectra realised with success and shows that our engineers, in optimum space utilization, the so-named 'packaging', have a leading role in the world."
The Opel Meriva, which is especially aligned to the needs of European customers, and the Chevrolet Meriva for the South American market differ for example in the powertrain, the seating and items like the interior configuration and the supply of equipment options.

The Meriva is a stylish and charming cross between the versatile Zafira and the compact Corsa.

In vans like the Meriva, which have a higher roof than conventional passenger cars, the seat occupant's hip point, which governs the seated position, is moved up and the seat back set at a slightly steeper angle.
The new Opel Meriva's list of standard equipment is long, but there are also many interesting optional extras to choose from, for example xenon headlamps, a glass-panel electric sliding roof, manually-controlled or automatic air conditioning, leather upholstery or attractively styled alloy wheels.
To safeguard the Meriva's long-term value, it has an extensively galvanized body that provides effective corrosion protection, so that Opel is able to grant a 12-year warranty against body rust penetration.

By contrast, the Meriva, which differs only in minor details, particularly on the front bumper area, from the concept car, was largely developed and engineered by GM do Brasil, since Rüsselsheim was too busy with other projects.

Opel claims this helps entry, egress and securing child seats in the back row, but we wonder how often one has a chance - let alone the space - in a parking lot to open a door so wide.
Opel won’t comment on the production timeframe for the concept, but it’s fairly safe to say most styling cues will work their way onto the next-generation Meriva, but don’t expect that vehicle to travel Stateside under the Saturn brand.
[…] it’s not the Saturn Flextreme, it’s the Opel Meriva.

Thanks to the Meriva's new seating system, the rear seats can be adjusted individually to maximise passenger space and comfort.

Opel have a chic little family mover… and he has a chic little family.
Essentially the first of the new generation mini-MPVs to hit the SA market, the Meriva has boldly marched in to compete with the cheaper entry-level versions of slightly larger cars like the Citroen Picasso and Renault Scenic.
In terms of overall size, the Meriva is slightly smaller than its Gallic rivals mentioned earlier - the Picasso offers 550-2 128 litres of boot space, the Scenic 410-1 800 litres, while the Meriva weighs in at 350-1 410 litres.

 ONE.MOTORING - Opel Meriva 1.6 (A): Opel stages a subtle Meri-vival
Positioned as the Opel Zafira's little brother, the five-seat Meriva is a tall, boxy five-door that's based on a mix of Corsa and Astra underpinnings.
Opel has added variable intake valve timing control to the previous 1.6-litre Ecotec engine and calls the updated unit "Twinport Ecotec".
In case you need to carry odd-sized baggage, the Meriva's rear seats and front passenger bucket can be stowed forming a flat floor, effectively converting the Meriva into a one-seater with tons of load-lugging capability.

Yet another compact MPV has made its debut, swelling the growing ranks of this popular segment: the Opel Meriva has arrived and it is neat looking and packed with clever ideas.
To pamper passengers in the rear, Meriva has the Twin Audio system which consists of a module in the centre of the rear console where rear passengers can plug in their headsets and listen to the CD while those in front listen to the radio or vice versa.
Opel Meriva is powered by a 1598cc engine with 16 valves producing 100bhp at 6000rpm and maximum torque of 150Nm at 3600rpm.
