Unusual for an electric car, it has a 4-speed manual transmission. It has a 'pixel visor'1 and a digital cockpit. Other tweaks include the modern Vauxhall/Opel Visor nose – which here displays a selection of woke messages – some LED lights, digital dash from the Mokka, sports seats from the Adam and 17″ alloys with modern rubber. The Opel Manta GSe ElektroMOD is an electric redesign of the Opel Manta, with advanced technology. Y en 2024 todos los Opel dispondrn de una versin electrificada. Al finalizar 2021 nuestra gama incluir 9 modelos elctricos. ![]() ![]() But thanks to the electric motor’s torque, you could just leave it in fourth all the time. Con su batera de 31 kWh y 200 km de autonoma, el Manta GSe ElektroMOD tambin demuestra que Opel es un pionero de la electrificacin. Interestingly, it comes with the original four-speed manual ‘box, so you can, if you want, drive it as you would the original. The obvious change for what was an original Manta before Opel started playing is the EV powertrain replacing the four-pot ICE, a classic-appropriate 145bhp electric motor and modest 31kWh battery. Now it’s time for Opel, Vauxhall’s German twin, to play the retro electric car game with an electric RestoMod on an original Opel Manta – a car which is clearly a one-off, but also fishing for feedback – to create the Opel Manta GSe ElektroMOD. The interesting fact about the latter is the “ driver has the choice of manually shifting the original four-speed gearbox or simply engaging fourth gear and then driving automatically.” Well, that would be immensely cool if put into actual series production.The Opel Manta GSe ElektroMOD is revealed as an EV RestoMod Opel project with an electric motor and manual gearbox.Īs we move in to the brave new world of electric cars, some of the soul is being lost as vocal ICE turns in to silent EV, and cars become something you treat as a monthly payment, not a treasured possession.īut even as the sky darkens for petrolheads, glimmers of hope appear, as some car makers look to their past to create their future – like Honda with the Honda E – and (whether you like it or not) EV powertrains offer a proper usable future for real classic cars too, with classic car specialists converting cars to EV – and Jaguar and more doing the same to their heritage models. The GSe ElektroMOD now includes a 147-PS (145-hp) and 255 Nm (188 lb-ft) electric motor, a 31- kWh lithium-ion battery offering a range of 200 km (124 miles), as well as a quirky four-speed transmission. The most important one would be that we’re dealing with a Manta A that’s “ on a zero e-mission” thanks to the powertrain swap. The latest technologies don’t end there because the electrified Manta also makes use of LED and pixel technology to communicate with people outside the car.Īs such, the vehicle's front acts as a veritable screen where different messages can easily be seen. Overall, this GSe ElektroMOD won’t be mistaken for anything else but a Manta but would also fit in between the current range of cars from the company thanks to the addition of the latest styling cues, such as the Opel Pixel-Vizor or the Pure Panel cockpit.

Well, you can’t have everything in life, so let’s wonder at the yellow and black Manta because it really is a cool project. As previously anticipated, this is just a one-off that's hinted by a little footnote that we almost missed when searching for evidence that maybe Opel was putting the founding stone on a completely new business direction. Unfortunately, there’s also a very bad one. It features the vintage design with updated styling, as is now traditional for a restomod, and comes with a completely new and zero-emissions powertrain. GSe ElektroMOD tudi z baterijo s kapaciteto 31 kWh in dosegom 200 km dokazuje, da je Opel pionir elektrifikacije. And the company’s desire to blend tradition and state-of-the-art technology is called the 2021 Opel Manta GSe ElektroMOD. Teased a couple of months ago, the revival project of the classic Opel Manta is now very much official. ![]()
