Opel GT X Experimental

The Opel GT X Experimental is a concept study from the German car maker Opel, shown in 2018. The X stands for SUV, and with it Opel wanted to show how its design should look in the middle of the 2020s. The SUV class was chosen because a lightweight SUV can be made more environmentally friendly, so the car has an electric motor. Its battery is planned at 50 kWh with inductive charging, for a range of 300 kilometres, and the car is meant to manage level 3 autonomous driving. The four doors open in opposite directions, so there is no B-pillar, the windscreen is a panorama pane that spans the whole roof, and, as on the Opel GT Concept, small cameras replace the side mirrors. The study anticipates the Opel Mokka B, and its newly shaped grille was meant to become the design standard for future Opel models.
