Our Ampera hasn’t just been a star in terms of its fuel economy results, the Vauxhall is now also an online star after BusinessCar’s video road test editor David Motton borrowed the range-extender to film it for one of his latest vehicle reviews.

It went back to Vauxhall just before Christmas, so look out for a full debrief in our next issue, dated 28 January.
