    1) The document discusses Opel's strategy for electric mobility, focusing on the Ampera extended range electric vehicle (E-REV). 2) It notes the rising global demand for vehicles, currently over 1 billion powered 98% by fossil fuels, and Opel's strategy to improve fuel economy, displace petroleum usage, and provide energy diversity including electricity and hydrogen. 3) The Ampera can drive 40-80 km on its battery before a small gasoline generator provides power for over 500 km total range, giving it full usability unlike pure electric vehicles.
