First Look: 2011 Opel Ampera – Europe Scores A Volt (EU version of Chevy Volt)
http://www.nextautos.com/first-look-2011-opel-ampera-%E2%80%93-europe-scores-a-volt?gid=13303&nid=35222#gallery-13303

The excitement behind the impending launch of the Chevrolet Volt won’t have to be limited to North America anymore—it’ll just have to be put off for one year. General Motors has shown off the European-flavored Volt, a restyled Opel version known as the Ampera.

The Euro versions (there will also be a right-hand-drive Vauxhall Ampera for Blighty) have all the same underpinnings as the revolutionary Chevy version, though some tweaks will have to be made to make the car compliant with Euro power grids. Have a closer look at the Ampera in our gallery above or scroll down to read the official press release.


Quite a few interior/exterior photos at the link.
