Think of the Opel Flextreme GT/E concept as a bigger Chevrolet Volt (or Opel Ampera if you're European). The idea behind this concept, which will debut at the Geneva Motor Show ( March 4 - 14, 2010 ), is to show how the Volt's extended-range electric vehicle drivetrain can be used in a larger vehicle, in this case a mid-size five-door hatchback. And it will boost the company's credentials as a leader in green technologies, offering expressive design with efficient environmental performance - and engineered with German precision. 2010 Opel Flextreme GT/E Concept with E-REV Drive System In Opel's strategy for achieving more independence from fossil fuels, electricity plays a key role.
