Dynamic design
Key elements of the silk grey-lacquered Coupé concept car finished with a matt grey paint begin with an aggressive front end emphasised by large aluminium vertical intakes that intersect the headlamps. These vertical elements are mirrored in the rear exhausts.
Another significant design cue of the two-door sport-coupé with its sleek silhouette (length/width/height: 4830/1867/1432 millimeters, wheelbase: 2737 mm) is the sophisticated bodyside shapes and surfacing. Large flarings hug the aggressive wheel and tyre package. Thanks to the wide track (front/rear: 1627/1629 mm), the GTC Concept provides a commanding stance, planted by 20-inch rims with 245/40 R20 ”red line” styled rubber.
The GTC Concept’s rear strategically echoes the design language of the nose with an integrated chrome bar resting on the distinctive rear centre crease. The shape of the LED rear lamps is also recognisable as a Vauxhall/Opel styling cue. The smart exterior shape and aerodynamic characteristics are rewarded by the cD value of 0.25.
Interior design
Vauxhall and Opel’s interior designs have progressed to become warmer and more inviting in products like the Corsa and Antara. However, the GTC Concept represents the next chapter of the interior brand identity. Echoing the exterior, the interior shapes and surfaces articulate a dynamic driving experience.
