RIGEL TINTO MK2 1.3

RIGEL TINTO MK2 (1997)

After 7 years of success for the European brand and a notable sales figure in the national territory, Rigel unveiled in 1997 the second generation of its C-segment compact, the Rigel Tinto. The model has grown in interior quality with a new and redesigned cabin, on the outside it has received an image wash more in keeping with the 2000s and improving its aerodynamic coefficient with an arrowhead-shaped front instead of a straight one.

The model will be available in 5 different versions, from the cheapest “young”, through sports models not seen in the previous model and even a simple version of a hybrid engine seen in the Pizarro 2 SUV.

The dynamism of the Tinto has been increased with the implementation of a new type of suspension that provides the model with correct cornering but without reducing comfort for its passengers, also in the safety section it is increased with a new belt that surrounds completely the car in its central part creating a safer passenger compartment, the standard placement of double front airbags and ABS among others.

Trims

Young: It is the access model to the range, as in its predecessor version, it has the essential accessories to create the most practical vehicle in the city and to be able to comfortably transport five occupants, without great luxuries but with ABS, electric power steering and dual front airbags. You will be able to count on a 78 horsepower 1.4 gasoline engine and a 65 horsepower 1.6 diesel.

Business: El Tinto recovers its famous “business turbodiesel” nomenclature in this new generation, in this case it is a model aimed at business fleets that provides the greatest comfort at the lowest price. It will only mount a 2-liter turbo Diesel engine and 90 horsepower. Being able to choose basic colors such as white, gray or black, it may also be available for sale to individuals.

Sensación: The mid-range model will have several extras such as a sunroof, 16-inch alloy wheels or a mixed fabric and leather interior in aqua green. Thus completing the model we find bumpers in body color, fog lights and the provision of a rain sensor with automatic wipers and cruise control. In the Sensación variant we can include 2-liter 90 horsepower diesel engines and 90 hp 1.6 gasoline engines.

Hybrid: a very special model for the brand, a high commitment is made to place hybrid engines in Europe. This hybrid engine will have a renovated three-cylinder engine made entirely of aluminum with 72 CV and a battery and an electric motor with a power of 20 horsepower will be added to it. The operation is the same as seen in the previous section with the Pizarro 2.

GTRS: to culminate the Tinto range in this generation we can find the Gran Turismo Rigel Sport, which will have the new G4 16-valve engine with double overhead camshafts and 155 horsepower. New lowered suspensions and specialized springs for sports competition, 16-inch wheels and an exclusive leather interior in red tones and plastics in the same colors.
