Welcome to an entirely new category of alternative propulsion. The Ampera packs the punch you’d expect from a V6 and does it with whisper-quiet power. So you get all the performance, with none of the noise. Delivering a dynamic, fun driving experience, only the Ampera makes it exhilarating to be ‘eco’, with 370 Nm torque powering you from 0 to 60mph in less than nine seconds.
Change the game. Change the world The lightweight 16 kWh rechargeable lithium-ion battery powers the Ampera for up to 50 miles (see full brochure for details) of cost-effective battery powered motoring – making it ideal for commuting. For longer trips, the innovative petrol-powered generator provides the electricity to power the drive unit, allowing you to drive another 310 miles* without having to recharge or refuel.
Step into a new world. The interior of the Ampera combines elegant comfort and roominess with state-of-the-art functionality and usability. From its interactive colour central instrument display to voice recognition technology, all contained within the dynamic flow of the wrap-around cockpit. Two high-definition displays and superb in-car ergonomics offer you a clear view of the gauges and easy access to functions and controls. Standard features include a leather-trimmed interior, with a choice of complementary interior colours, a leather-covered steering wheel and Electronic Climate Control.
The Ampera has two driving modes: Electric and Extended-Range Electric. In Electric Mode, the Ampera is powered by its battery and can drive in this mode for between 25-50 miles*. Then when the battery runs low, the Ampera seamlessly switches to Extended-Range Electric Mode and its petrol-driven generator takes over. The generator produces the electricity for the motor and increases the range by a further 310 miles*. Thanks to this innovative system, you can be entirely confident that you’ll reach your destination – just as if you were driving a conventionally-powered car.
Charging the Ampera battery is simple. Just plug one end of the charge cable into the charge port on the passenger side front wing, and the other into a standard 240 volt power socket or the accessory home charge station, and you can charge the vehicle at home.
*E-REV stands for Extended Range Electric Vehicle
