The Opel Gran Turismo Coupé Concept, abbreviated as Opel GTC Concept, was a concept car that was manufactured by Opel and designed to be a coupé version of the Opel Vectra C.[1] The GTC premiered at the 77th Geneva Motor Show in 2007.[2] The Opel GTC was a grand tourer.[3]
The GTC was powered by a turbocharged 2.8 L (171 cid) V6 engine from the High Feature family, which was also used in the standard Vectra but tuned in the GTC to produce 3000NaN0 and 2950NaN0 of torque. The base and floorpan came from the platform General Motors Epsilon II but were modified for all wheel drive to apply the power effectively.
The car was capable of 0 to 1000NaN0 in 6.0 seconds, and having a top speed of 2500NaN0.
The Opel Vectra went out of production in July 2008.[4] Design cues of the Opel GTC were then used on the Opel Insignia, an upmarket replacement for the Vectra which was launched in October 2008.[5] However, no coupé version of the Insignia was ever made available. The front bumper was an inspiration to the Opel Ampera, a car based on the Chevrolet Volt.
