Even a brief glance reveals that the rear treatment makes a dynamic charismatic impact. Key features include:
Prominent protective bumpers
Broad shouldered stance
Rear lights that echo the unique wing motif of the front daylight running lights
Adaptive translucent roof
A full-length glass sunroof makes the interior of the Flextreme GT/E Concept light and airy. It is light sensitive so that as the sunlight and heat increases it darkens protectively. Delivering:
Controlled natural light and heat
Power saving for the air conditioning
A refreshing, naturally lit inner ambience
FlexDoors® system
Access to the rear seats is enhanced by the adoption of an evolution of the unique Opel portal doors first seen on the new Opel Meriva monocab. Benefits of the FlexDoors® system include:
Front and rear doors open independently of each other
To achieve the minimum drag and wind resistance, several advances have been stylishly and seamlessly integrated into the overall design. The result is a standard-setting drag coefficient of just 0,22. A series of measures optimize the aerodynamics:
Low, sculpted roof (1,308 mm)
Air outlet vents in the motor hood
Rear view cameras instead of mirrors
Flat underbody for optimised airflow
21 inch wheels with aerodynamic wheel covers and low rolling resistance tyres
Automatically extending speed-sensitive “aero blade” side spoilers to smooth rear side airflow
Rear underbody swept upwards for venturi effect
Weight optimisation and distribution
In the performance orientated Opel Flextreme GT/E Concept, managing, reducing and perfectly distributing the weight was essential. Opel has planned the latest high-tech racetrack developed compound materials and alloys for the chassis and body panels. These offer a substantial weight saving, further reducing consumption and increasing the range.
The Flextreme GT/E Concept uses anevolution of the Voltec power system of the Opel Ampera, demonstrating that itcan be used in large high performance cars. The Opel Flextreme GT/E Concept is not a hybrid, but anExtended Range Electric Vehicle (E-REV). This means that it is electricallydriven at all times. Features and benefits include:
Near-silent electric power delivering upto (120 kW) and 370 Nm torque, or the equivalent of 150 hp right from the start
Enabling a 200 km/h top speed and 9 seconds0-100 performance
Fuel costs cut drastically
Battery charging in 2-3 hours from any householdpower outlet.
Up to 60 km driving range on pure, cleanelectric power from a 16 kWh lithium-ion battery pack
Electro-magnetic brakes for energyrecuperation
Activating the combustion engine extends the range up to 500 km, while keeping the batteries charged and maintaining theperformance until the next recharge
With the 1.4l, 61 kW (82 hp) engine running emissions are just 40 g/km CO2 with 1.6 l/100 km fuel consumption
