3. Ampera

April 2012

It has sharp, slightly futuristic looks, and the ‘boomerang’ features at the front of the car below the headlamps are expected to become a feature of forthcoming Vauxhalls.

The Ampera is a four-seater as the battery cells take up space in the transmission tunnel, but for the most part it feels like an expensive car inside. There is climate control, satellite navigation, electric windows, steering wheel-mounted controls and some sophisticated displays.
