Opel Ampera-e
The Opel Ampera-e is an all-electric hatchback/MPV with a theoretic range of 520km (380km under the more realistic WLTP testing procedure), it’s basically a Chevrolet Bolt EV with a few design changes. It’s made in Detroit together with its twin model. Its introduction in Europe has been slightly delayed because of the takeover of Opel/Vauxhall by PSA early 2017.
The biggest markets for the Ampera-e will be Norway, The Netherlands, Germany and France, due to their EV-friendly fiscal policies. The Ampera-e will only be sold as an Opel and won’t be available in the UK as a Vauxhall, because GM hasn’t developed a right-hand drive version due to a lack of scale expected for the model in RHD markets.
