Opel also showcased an Opel Vectra B racing car from the Opel Classic collection, highlighting the brand’s deep heritage in motorsport and reinforcing its place in the hearts of performance enthusiasts. The trio on display proves that Opel is serious about offering exciting, high-performance vehicles across the spectrum of electrified mobility, from rally racing to rugged off-road exploration.
