Overview

Opel Ampera-e 2017 overview

Opel Ampera-e 2017 is an electric hatchback with FWD and a 5-seat cabin. Energy use is 15.8 kWh/100 km, around the class median of 15.9 kWh/100 km.

Battery capacity: 58 kWh usable (62.2 kWh nominal). BEVDB model suggests about 248 km for cold highway driving.

Charging: AC up to 7.4 kW (Type 2); DC up to 46 kW (CCS Combo 2). On a DC fast charger, it adds ~49 km in 10 min; Safety rating: 4/5.

Class comparison

Opel Ampera-e 2017 compares with 152 hatchbacks and leans toward longer DC stops and less range in 10 min. 10–80% time is longer than the class median; 60 min vs 30 min; 30 min slower, +100%. Range added in 10 min is lower than the class median; 49 km vs 92 km; 43 km lower, -47%. WLTP range is above the class median; 423 km vs 324 km; 99 km higher, +31%. A strong match for longer stints between charges, with longer 10–80% stops as the main trade-off.

Real Range

City - Mild Weather	464 km
City - Cold Weather	340 km
Highway - Mild Weather	322 km
Highway - Cold Weather	248 km

Real range estimates The values shown here are estimates calculated by BEV-Database using WLTP data and the usable battery capacity of the car. Mild weather represents driving in roughly +20 +25 C without heavy use of climate control, while Cold weather reflects winter conditions with cabin heating. Highway assumes steady cruising at about 110 km/h. These figures are not official test results. Real-world range will vary depending on speed, temperature, traffic, road profile, payload, tyres and driving style.
