Overview
- Opel's GSE 27FE, which turned its first laps Wednesday at Circuit Paul Ricard, ran with development driver Sophia Flörsch in its public debut.
- GEN4 regulations bring up to 600 kW of power, permanent all‑wheel drive, 0–100 km/h in about 1.8 seconds, and top speeds above 335 km/h.
- A multi‑month test program starts around May with roughly 15 track days planned across European circuits.
- Flörsch is confirmed as test and development driver, and Opel has not yet named its race lineup for the 2026/27 season.
- The prototype wears a neon yellow and black 'Lightspeed' test livery, with the final race look and sponsors due at the Paris Motor Show in October.
