Opel Mokka GSE in the test: On too big a scale - that's how the Opel with rally genes drives

Düsseldorf - Opel is attempting to preserve its sporting legacy in the age of electric cars with the introduction of the GSE label for its upcoming electric models. This label, consisting of three letters, aims to signify particularly sporty electric vehicles. The tradition dates back to the 1960s when Opel built the Commodore A GS/E, featuring a powerful drive and labeled GS for Grand Sport, with E denoting injection at the time.

Opel positioned these cars as sporty vehicles for the middle class, offering performance at a bargain price.
