2011 2012 Opel / Vauxhall Calibra in shock return - with price and details
The Opel Calibra is back! Hot on the heels of our news that Ford Capri is a revival as the Focus Coupé-base is the confirmation that Vauxhall is a successor to the popular two-door nineties to create.
"I think we should have one, so we have one," GM Europe chief Nick Reilly Auto Express said. As head of a total of Vauxhall and Opel, Reilly has the final say about what goes into production.
He referred to the GTC (Gran Turismo Concept) Coupé at the Geneva Motor Show unveiled in 2007 as an inspiration and said, ". It is precisely this kind of car" The concept was on the Insignia, which is expected to form the basis for the new sports machine.
The AGB could by a 2.8-liter V6 turbo, and the VXR version of the production vehicle based on the 320bhp of the hottest Insignia to create a cheap version of the Audi S5 Coupe driven.
However, it is assumed that the smaller, especially turbocharged units offer an attractive business and power mixed with Vauxhall forthcoming series of all-new direct-injection gasoline engines that, according to Reilly, provide economic savings of "at least 10 to 15 percent."
The Calibra had a large following, with 250,000 sold worldwide before it was canceled in 1997. And again is the top spec-Version of the four-seater probably come with all-wheel drive.
Reilly also showed that Vauxhall is planning to use the name as Ampera sub-brand to expand the number of extended-range battery-powered vehicles. "We are looking at other body styles, including a small Astra-sized car and a larger," he said.
With the same electric powertrain with the 1.4-liter generator, would support the new Ampera family models to the second generation of the Chevrolet Volt in the U.S.. The MkI start in Britain in 2012 and the sale of the MkII could begin as soon as 12 months later. In addition, the replacement would be far cheaper Ampera, after Reilly. "We are a 50 percent reduction in the cost of electrification of the car, including batteries to see," he said.
This would bring the Ampera down about 5,000 - £ 7,000 more than a gasoline or diesel equivalent, at about £ 27,000. The original European model will be priced at £ 36,500.
