2010 Opel Flextreme GT-E Concept

The Opel Flextreme GT / E Concept introduced it self at the 80th Geneva Motor Show on March 4 – 14, 2010. As a car with green technology, offering expressive design with efficient environmental performance – and engineered with German precision. Opel calls this strategy e-mobility unlimited: adapting the highly efficient E-REV drive system – which removes the limitations of battery-only power.

Expressive exterior design is aimed at stand-out visual features include a low and wide stance, wing-shaped lights front and rear, a distinctive nose and grille, floating C-pillars and muscular, sculptured bodywork. The prominent wing-shaped chrome bar carries a large Opel emblem, which doubles as a socket for charging the Opel Flextreme GT/E Concept’s battery pack.

To enjoy zero CO2 driving emissions Opel-style, the Flextreme GT-E concept shows that size doesn’t matter. Despite its greater size and a maximum speed of more than 200 kilometers per hour, the Opel Flextreme GT-E Concept is projected to offer performance similar to that of the Ampera: a battery-powered driving range of up to 60 km – with zero CO2 tailpipe emissions – and a total range of more than 500 km. Average fuel consumption is estimated at 1.6 l/100 km, with CO2 emissions of less than 40 g/km.

For typical journeys up to 60 km, energy is supplied by a T-shaped lithium-ion battery pack located under the floor and rear seat. In this mode, the driving range is extended to more than 500 km, until the plug-in battery pack can be recharged or the car is refueled.
