Portfolio
Our portfolio of driving courses is split into three types, each with a different focus. Read on for more about the various trainings available.
The perfect location: The Opel Test Centre in Rodgau / Dudenhofen offers all of the driving and testing facilities necessary to develop vehicles and to host unforgettable Opel Experience events.
The Opel Test Centre is one of the largest and most modern automotive testing facilities in Europe. Since 1966, Opel has used it to put its models through their paces. One of the centre’s highlights is the huge high speed track, with a banked turn angled at up to 40 degrees, allowing speeds of over 250 km/h to be reached without the influence of lateral force. Opel test drivers clock up to 40,000 kilometres around the enormous track on a daily basis – that makes around ten million kilometres each year. Opel even tests its racing cars at Dudenhofen – everyone from rally drivers to the speed kings that participated at the German Touring Car Championship (Deutschen Tourenwagen-Meisterschaft (DTM)).
