The '''VauxhallOpel Combo''' is a [[panel van]] and [[leisure activity vehicle]] from the [[Germany|German]] automaker [[Opel]]. The Combo first appeared in 1993, a second generation model was introduced in 2001, and the third was manufactured from December 2011 to December 2017, based on the [[Fiat Doblò]]. The name "Combo" was previously applied as a suffix to a three-door panel van [[Car body style|body style]] of [[Opel Kadett E]] from 1986 until 1993.
 
Opel/Vauxhall joined Groupe PSA in March 2017: the fourth generation Combo, launched in March 2018, shares the platform and bodywork of the [[Peugeot Rifter]] and [[Peugeot Partner|Partner]], as well as the [[Citroën Berlingo]].

The second generation was launched at the [[Frankfurt Motor Show]], in September 2001.<ref>{{cite web |date=22 August 2001 |url=http://www.theautochannel.com/news/2001/08/23/027987.html |title=World premiere at the Frankfurt Motor Show: Opel Combo Tour |work=The Auto Channel |access-date=11 May 2015}}</ref> While most competitors severed their connections with their subcompact brethren, Opel decided to base the vehicle on the Corsa again. The use of subcompact [[GM Gamma platform|Gamma platform]] constrained the overall width of the vehicle. The front clip is thus still shared with the Corsa, although now only back to the A-pillar. This allowed Opel to more fully integrate the overall design of the car, giving it a "flush" look more in line with its competitors.
 
Compared to the previous generation, the Combo C gained sliding rear side doors (versions with either single passenger side door or double doors are available). Sales began in January 2002.
 
An ''Opel Combo Tour'' version was also introduced, followed by ''Opel Combo Tour Tramp'' (Combo Tour Arizona in some markets), in an effort to attract [[leisure activity vehicle]] buyers. Combo Tour Tramp/Arizona was thought as a more off road recreational vehicle.
