The second generation, officially known as the Tigra TwinTop, was produced from 2004 to 2009 and built by the French coachbuilder Heuliez. Transforming from the original 2+2 coupe into a dedicated two-seater roadster, it incorporated an electro-hydraulic folding steel roof that retracted in just 18 seconds. Based on the GM Gamma architecture shared with the Corsa C, the vehicle featured front-wheel drive and a rigid reinforced body structure. The engine range consisted of 1.4-litre (90 hp) and 1.8-litre (125 hp) Twinport Ecotec petrol units, alongside an efficient 1.3-litre CDTI common-rail turbodiesel producing 70 hp developed jointly with Fiat. Gearbox options included a standard five-speed manual and an optional Easytronic automated manual for the 1.4-litre engine. The model was retailed in the UK as a Vauxhall, in mainland Europe as an Opel, and in Australia as a Holden, with production ceasing in 2009 without a successor.
