Opel Concept M

Vehicle Overview

The Opel Concept M was a sporty and environment-friendly monocab design study and was unveiled at the 2002 Geneva Motor Show. With its height of 1.62 meters, the dynamically styled, monocab van has stacks of space for four passengers. It also features an advanced propulsion concept: a 1.6-liter 110 kW/150 hp natural gas turbo engine in combination with the “Easytronic” automated manual transmission first seen in the Corsa. The 200 km/h concept vehicle was also well ahead of its time as far as the interior is concerned, offering plenty of potential for innovative solutions in the future. In this respect, Concept M has similarities with Opel’s successful compact van, Zafira, and is also a direct successor to pioneering concept cars like the “Frogster” and “Signum II” and will be produced from 2003 under the name Meriva. The Opel Concept M was built by Bertone in Italy
