The Alternative Energy rally, which started today, is open to vehicles with CO2 emissions of under 115g/km, and covers a set distance at a constant speed competing to use as little energy as possible. To enter, vehicles must emit under 115g/km CO2.

Enno Fuchs, Opel’s director of e-mobility at Opel, said: ‘Spectators will have the chance to see our electric cars in action under the challenging conditions the rally has to offer.’
