For further around 245 million euros will be invested in Rüsselsheim, which had been previously announced but. “Opel is of high strategic importance for GM,” affirmed Barra. The brand has successfully begun to introduce 27 new models and 17 new engines. The additional investment was a commitment from GM to Opel, to Germany and to Europe.
