[Ovmsdev] Volt/Ampera CAN Logs

[Mark Webb-Johnson]

Ok, that clears my confusion.

A 'gray' car in more than one sense of the word :-)

I think we'll just put both sets of images in and I'll stick with calling them Ampera (for the "X") and Volt (for the "V").

Thanks, Mark.

Wikipedia says "The European version of there Volt, the Open Ampera (known as Vauxhall Ampera in the United Kingdom). The main differences between the Volt and Ampera are in their styling. Opel reported that most of the Ampera clients ... top markets ... Belelux, Germany and the United Kingdom". Does only the UK get the new "X" styling, or is it all Amperas? Confused I am.
