In development, the Opel engineers strongly prioritise safety aspects. Stringent as the safety regulations and guidelines for the operation of e-vehicles of the German Motor Sport Federation (DMSB) may be, the Corsa-e Rally complies with all of them and then even clearly exceeds some. Generally, Opel and ADAC are working closely together with the DMSB both on all safety concerns and in developing and implementing the single-brand cup.
Numerous vehicle components were taken from the mass-production Opel Corsa-e, including the electric motor and the 50 kWh Li-ion battery integrated in the floor structure designed to provide a range of at least 60km at competition speed. A fast-charging system and mobile charging stations will keep the speedy e-vehicles ‘juiced up’ during a rally. Moreover, the Opel Corsa-e Rally boasts a sophisticated recuperation system: In each instance of braking, the vehicle’s kinetic energy is transformed into electric power and stored in the battery.
