Opel is a German carmaker from Russelsheim, founded in 1862 (originally making sewing machines). Opel has been part of the Stellantis group since 2017 (formerly GM Europe). Opel and Vauxhall (UK) are the same line-up under different names. The Citroen petrol range is shared with Peugeot and Opel within Stellantis. High-output Citroen petrol engines are rare, as the focus is on the family segment. PureTech is Citroen's badge for its turbo petrol engines.
Older Opel models (pre-2017) share ECUs with Chevrolet, requiring a different toolset. The Opel community in Germany and the UK generates a large volume of Stage files. Within Stellantis, ECUs are standardised, so Opel files (from 2017 on) often work on Peugeot/Citroen. High-output Citroens are rare, as the core segment is low and mid.
