The Vauxhall Antara interior is full of light and space, with high quality trims, premium finishes and top-of-the-range levels of equipment. Leather trim, electronic climate control, satellite navigation, MP3 format and heated front seats are all available. The electric parking brake function also frees up space for even more storage. And a high driving position gives you confidence, control and a great view of the road ahead.
Antara benefits from a unique interaction between ESP, Traction Control (TC) and Descent Control System (DCS), all working together with the ABS system and on 4X4 models, intelligent four-wheel drive to deliver high degrees of driving satisfaction, comfort and active safety. If a wet roundabout or muddy corner catches you out, ESP applies corrective braking to help you regain control. TC helps maintain traction under acceleration. The ESP system fitted to the Antara also includes a trailer stability program and Hill Start Assist (HSA) that eases starting and eliminates roll-back on gradients.

SATELLITE NAVIGATION
The satellite navigation system uses the international network of GPS (Global Positioning System) satellites, linked to a comprehensive 3D mapping system on the 5-inch colour LCD touch-screen, to determine your precise location and guide you to your chosen destination virtually anywhere in mainland Britain. In areas where radio stations operate the Traffic Messaging Channel (TMC) service you can take advantage of dynamic route guidance. This monitors incidents and delays along your chosen route and suggests an alternative route to avoid them, taking into account any previous conditions you have set such as avoiding motorways, toll roads etc. The system also offers major route navigation across a further 28 European countries via the supplied SD card. The bright display makes it easy to follow your progress on screen, and the directional arrows are backed up by spoken instructions that guide you to your destination turn-by-turn. A travel guide is a particularly useful feature that has details of restaurants, hotels, parking and other points of interest. Simply select the location you’re interested in and let the navigation system guide you there.
