Opel presents new Corsa-e Rally at German Rally Championship finale
- Brand cup: introduction of ADAC #opel e-Rally Cup to DRM participants
- Presentation: #opel #corsaerally at ADAC 3-Städte Rallye on October 18-19
- Development: test phase of Opel’s new electric #racing car has begun
Rüsselsheim. Development of the #opel #corsaerally has begun as planned. The new electric #racing car powered by a 50 kWh battery is currently undergoing numerous endurance and performance tests at the Test Center in Dudenhofen. This will ensure that the 136hp #corsaerally with 260 Nm of torque meets the high standards of the ADAC #opel e-Rally Cup. The debut of the world's first rally brand cup for electric cars is scheduled for late summer 2020. The first Cup season will include at least eight events over the year into 2021, primarily within the framework of the German Rally Championship (DRM). The final schedule is planned to be announced at the Essen Motor Show (November 30 – December 8, 2019).
The #opel #corsaerally will already be presented to participants and media representatives next weekend (October 18-19) at the 2019 DRM season finale, the ADAC 3-Städte Rallye around Freyung in Lower Bavaria. Presentation of the ADAC #opel e-Rally Cup and the associated #opel and ADAC joint promotion concept is scheduled for Friday at 1 p.m. for the teams and at 2 p.m. for media representatives. The electric #racing car will be on display in the Freyung service area on both rally days. #opel Motorsport Director Jörg Schrott will be on site and available to answer any questions from interested parties and journalists.
“Until now the German rally scene was able to read about the Opel Corsa-e Rally and admire the vehicle for the first time at the official world premiere at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt – and now we are pleased to present our show car to the rally teams at the DRM season finale. Some potential participants, some of them from abroad, will travel to the ADAC 3-Städte Rallye specifically to see the vehicle and learn more about our forward-looking concept on site. We're looking forward to the contact and interaction with the teams,“ says Jörg Schrott.
