[Ovmsdev] Volt/Ampera CAN Logs

[Michael Jochum]

Hi mark,

with the dark color you cant see very well the difference between Volt and Ampera. Try to get pictures with white color.
I have a Volt!

Opel:

Chevy/GM:

you can only see the "X" at a white car color.

Bye
michael

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.
