Opel is staking a strong claim for the title of star-attraction at the 64th Frankfurt International Motor Show, with an all-new battery-powered electric vehicle.


The concept opens a new chapter in electric mobility and extends Opel’s pioneering role in alternative propulsion systems. The key figures of the motorway-capable vehicle are 100 kilometres for one euro, one third of the weight of a modern small car, and a maximum speed of 120 km/h.

Inspired by the success of the Ampera, the revolutionary concept creates a new class of lightweight electric vehicle for zero-emission urban mobility.

The tandem two-seater has production potential and would also be affordable for younger customers. Energy requirements are ten times lower than those of a modern small car, and energy costs of only one euro per 100 km, benefit the environment as well the budget.
