The Opel GTC Paris Concept car will be shown for the first time at the 2010 Mondial de l’Automobile 2010 (October 2 – 17). This three-door compact is bold yet pure and is very iconic in presence. It is conceived to be the obtainable dream car delivering German engineered precision and innovation, matched with eye-popping design.
Sporty car at 4.46 meters offers room for five passengers. The front is clean yet full of character and features Opel’s typical centerline crease. Very slim eagle-eye shaped headlamps acting as parenthesis between the refined chrome emblem bar and the dramatic low trapezoidal grill which hints at its sporty character. Signature LED daytime running lights are outlined with finely crafted chrome inserts that can stand as a piece of sculpture by themselves.
The chassis has a special design with an extra-wide stance. It features a compound crank with an Opel-exclusive Watt’s link in the rear, a new, updated execution of the adaptive mechatronic FlexRide suspension and a front electronic limited slip differential. It added with dynamic 21-inch wheels.
The powertrain in the Opel GTC Paris Concept is a four-cylinder, 2.0 liter Turbo with direct injection, packing maximum horsepower and torque. It is fitted with Start/Stop technology, proving that drivers can combine high performance with maximum fuel efficiency in urban driving conditions. The transmission is a six-speed manual gearbox.
