EMC one of only 23 Vauxhall dealerships in the UK to showcase the new Ampera

Eastbourne Motoring Centre has been chosen as one of only 23 Vauxhall dealerships in the UK to showcase the new Ampera.

The new Vauxhall Ampera’s power source is a super-efficient, battery-powered electric motor, which uses the support of the on-board engine-generator only when necessary. It overcomes the range limitations of simple battery electric cars while avoiding the compromises evident in a hybrid car and can simply be plugged into a standard 240v socket for charging. The on-board range-extending engine drives an electric generator to sustain the battery capacity and generate additional electricity to power the car for up to 310 miles.

Sleek, well proportioned and eye catching, the Amperas sporty aerodynamics help maximise the distance it can cover whilst high-quality and high-tech materials set the tone inside the Vauxhall Ampera. Good all-around vision, a driver-focused cockpit, ample space, head and legroom for four adults, and a basic luggage volume of over 300 litres have been brought together to give an outstanding travelling and driving environment.

Vauxhall Motors are prioritising customer care, offering Vauxhall dealer and Head Office based support throughout ownership of the new Ampera including a Lifetime warranty.

The first Ampera is due to arrive in Eastbourne on 1st May, 2012. For further information, please visit Eastbourne Motoring Centre at Cavendish Bridge, Eastbourne, East Sussex, BN21 3SE or call us on Tel: 01323 720681
