Opel›GT›1st Gen

The Opel GT is a front-engine, rear-drive two-seat sports car manufactured by Opel with two generations produced, separated by a 34-year hiatus. The first generation Opel GT (1968–1973) was initially unveiled as a styling concept in 1965 and used mechanical components from the Opel Kadett B with bodywork by French contractor Brissonneau & Lotz. It bore a resemblance to the 1968 Chevrolet Corvette. The second generation Opel GT (2007–2009) was a rebadged version of the Saturn Sky, built in the USA, based on the Pontiac Solstice. Key Points: 1. First Generation (1968-1973): Originally showcased as a concept, the production model of the Opel GT shared mechanical parts with the Opel Kadett B. Its design was often compared to the 1968 Chevrolet Corvette. 2. Second Generation (2007-2009): The second generation Opel GT was essentially a rebadged variant of the Saturn Sky convertible, manufactured in the USA and derived from the Pontiac Solstice. In 2016, Opel introduced the GT Concept at the Geneva Motor Show, featuring a lightweight build, turbocharged engine, and a rear-wheel drive setup. This concept aimed to revive the GT lineage by blending modern technology and design elements with the classic two-seater sports car concept.
