The British subsidiary of Opel decided to introduce today a new version of the electric Ampera, namely the Ampera Earth, a version which becomes the new entry-level model in the range with prices starting from £29,995.

Under the bonnet we find the same electric motor capable to offer 149 horsepower, along with a 16 kWh lithium ion battery and a petrol engine which can be used as a generator when the electric motor can’t go anymore.
