Teasing is over and the hyped Opel Monza Concept has just been revealed at the 2013 Frankfurt Motor Show, pleasing our eyes with its sleek lines, technology and low stance.
The Monza’s athletic allure hints at overall efficiency. Its 4.69 meter-long silhouette is sculpted after ocean waves hitting the shore, giving the car a look of “sharp and light”, something similar to those ceramic knives you see on teleshopping. The concept also ditches the traditional B-pillar, leaving the two huge doors open in a spectacular gullwing style, providing good interior access for up to four passengers.

Speaking about the interior, the 1.31 meter-tall concept offers plenty of passenger and luggage space thanks to its airy design and low, slim-sculpted seats. Another interesting feature is represented by the high-tech dashboard that uses 18 LED projectors to create a continuous, adaptable multifunctional display. This means that drivers won’t find standard separate displays, but a wide sculpted dashboard which uses a single projection surface, fully customizable for each user.

Several hybrid powertrains were considered for the Monza Concept, but this one showcased here is powered by an electric one aided by a CNG (Compressed Natural Gas) range extender - a three-cylinder 1-liter SIDI turbo engine, which also makes its premiere at the Motor Show.
