Notes on regional differences
Because the Optra was marketed in different regions under various configurations and with different equipment levels, curb weight can shift slightly from one market to another. If you’re evaluating a used Optra, identify the exact variant (engine, transmission, trim) and verify its official curb weight from the manufacturer's literature or a trusted database for that market.
