Opel Ampera will be the first emission free, electrically driven car in Europe suitable for everyday driving. Unlike a conventional battery electric vehicle, the Ampera eliminates range anxiety. It gives drivers the confidence and peace of mind that a depleted battery will not strand them. The battery is recharged in about four hours at 230V by plugging the vehicle's on board charge system into a standard household outlet. Because the battery can be recharged conveniently, without the need for special charging equipment, most Amperas are likely to be driven in battery mode all the time. Independent research shows that around 80 percent of Europeans drive less than 60 kilometers per day, so the Ampera easily meets their requirements. For the first 40 - 80 kilometers (depending on terrain, driving style, and temperature), power is supplied by the electricity stored in the 16 kWh, lithium-ion battery. While driving on electricity delivered by the battery, the Ampera moves free of gas and tailpipe emissions. If a longer trip is required, the gasoline fueled engine can seamlessly extend the total driving range to more than 500 kilometers on a full tank. This full performance, range extending technology makes the Ampera the first electric car with the everyday convenience of a conventional automobile. The extremely quiet 111 kW/150 hp electric motor delivers 370 Nm torque from a standstill. It accelerates the Ampera from 0 to 100 km/h in around 9 seconds and enables a maximum ...
