Your first point for consideration is whether you want petrol power, or do you prefer diesel? Ok, now that you've decided, it's time to select which engine best suits your needs. Well, that's what usually happens, except Vauxhall has just two engines.
The 1.4-litre turbocharged petrol produces 140 horsepower, and the 2.0-litre turbodiesel produces a respectable 170 horsepower, which means the 1.6-litre turbodiesel of old will not be carried over. All we can do is hope that these two engines will suit everyone's driving needs.
Nevertheless, both are available with manual or automatic transmissions. Choose the 2.0 CDTi with manual transmission and you get stop/start which helps reign in the CO2 emission figure to 129 g/km. You'll be looking at MPG figures in the mid-50s. Slightly disappointing after having considered that the Citroën Grand C4 Picasso has a 110 horsepower diesel engine that promises 74.3 mpg and sub-100 g/km of CO2 making it free to tax. Even the BMW 220d Grand Tourer slips into the CO2 category below the Zafira Tourer, promising over 60 mpg. The Zafira Tourer, in fact, shares similar stats to the 220d xDrive - BMW's four-wheel-drive 7-seater.
Maybe engines are not Vauxhall's strong point in the Zafira Tourer range, but build quality is something that certainly doesn't disappoint, and there's plenty of options to choose from. See below the trim levels' pricing when specified with the 1.4i engine.
- Design - £18,615
- Energy - £21,735
- SRi - £23,280
- SRi Nav - £23,980
- SE - £23,265
- Tech Line - £20,310
- Elite - £24,745
- Elite Nav - £25,445
Should you want to make this a 1.4i with automatic transmission, you can add £1,520. If it's diesel power you're after, add £3,010 to Design, Energy, SE and Tech Line, or £3,075 to SRi, SRi Nav, Elite and Elite Nav. Automatic transmission for your diesel engine will set you back £1,125 on Design, Energy, SE and Tech Line, or £1,060 on SRi, SRi Nav, Elite and Elite Nav.
Entry-level Design comes with 17-inch alloy wheels, front and rear parking sensors and Vauxhall's 7-inch IntelliLink infotainment system which is optionally available with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Top-of-the-range Elite Nav adds the upgraded satellite navigation system as well as 18-inch alloys, a panoramic sunroof, heated front seats with leather upholstery, electronic climate control and front fog lights.
