What brand is the GTX car?
2 Answers
GTX is a car model under the Opel brand, which is a German automobile manufacturer. Taking the 2013 GTX as an example, it belongs to the mid-size car category with the following dimensions: length 4908mm, width 1856mm, height 1520mm, wheelbase 2737mm, fuel tank capacity 70l, and curb weight 1771kg. The 2013 GTX features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine producing maximum power of 220PS (162kW) and maximum torque of 400Nm, mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission.
To be honest, GTX isn't an independent car brand at all—it's actually Volkswagen's performance designation. Just like GTI represents gasoline-powered hot hatches, GTX serves as the performance suffix for electric vehicles. Last year, I test drove the ID.4 GTX, and the dual-motor all-wheel-drive version had particularly fierce acceleration, going from 0 to 100 km/h in just over six seconds. This model comes with additional sporty trim compared to the regular ID.4, even featuring exclusive embroidery on the seats. Volkswagen has now also launched the ID.5 GTX and ID.3 GTX versions, with stiffer chassis tuning, making them ideal for those who enjoy driving pleasure. Although the name might sound like a new brand, the VW badge makes it clear that it's still part of Volkswagen's electric performance lineup.
