FactEarlier Combos were built in Portugal and Spain, but the third generation shifted production to Tofaş's plant in Bursa, Turkey.
The third-generation Combo was manufactured from January 2012 to December 2018 in Turkey by Tofaş and was based on the Fiat Doblò, with sales beginning in January 2012. It was also sold as the Fiat Doblò, the Vauxhall Combo and the Ram ProMaster City. Its engines were a 1.4-litre Fire petrol, a 1.4-litre Fire Turbojet running on CNG, and a 1.6-litre CDTI diesel, and it was offered in short- and long-wheelbase forms, on a wheelbase of 2,755 mm (108.5 in) or 3,105 mm (122.2 in).

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

Photographs
This Combo shares its bones with the Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Rifter/Partner — the badge-engineering PSA inherited when it bought Opel in 2017.
Earlier Combos were built in Portugal and Spain, but the third generation shifted production to Tofaş's plant in Bursa, Turkey.
European Combo C production ended in 2011, but Holden stockpiled enough unsold vans in Australia and New Zealand to keep selling them for almost two more years.
Long after Opel moved on in Europe, this Combo kept building in China through 2005 — badged as the Shanghai Auto Saibao, sharing its 1.6 with the Buick Sail.
The Kadett Combo was built two different ways: Vauxhall assembled it in Ellesmere Port, England until 1989, then the line moved to Opel's own plant in Azambuja, Portugal for the rest of its run.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
Chevy pitched the Astro as the anti-minivan, telling buyers life was too big for one, while it rode on a rear-wheel-drive truck frame.
The IIHS rated the Astro Poor in a 1996 crash test, yet 2001–2004 Astros later had the lowest driver death rate of any US passenger vehicle.
The boxy, unglamorous Astro quietly posted one of the best real-world safety records in America: IIHS found 2001-2004 models had the fewest driver deaths per million vehicles of any passenger vehicle on US roads.
The third-generation Tourneo Connect, released in Europe in October 2021, is a rebadged fourth-generation Volkswagen Caddy, assembled by Volkswagen in Poland.
Ford beat the 25% "chicken tax" by importing the Transit Connect as a passenger van — rear windows and seats included, then stripped out and recycled once it landed in the US.
Ford spent years in federal court over the second-gen Transit Connect: in June 2019 the US won its appeal, and judges ruled the van was cargo-only — ending Ford's workaround for the 'chicken tax.'
GM sold a rebadged Nissan NV200 as the Chevy City Express for four years, then killed it in 2018, citing weak sales and the fact that its parts weren't even compatible with GM's own parts catalog.
Its name is a pun: "S-Cargo" means "Small Cargo" but sounds just like escargot — French for snail, the shape the whole van was built to resemble.
