The beginning of the way
Looking at the photo of the Opel logo, everyone will probably think about cars. This association is firmly attached to the company, because it has been producing them for more than a hundred years. Today it is a large international firm with a presence in Europe, America, South Africa and Asia with annual revenues in excess of $18 billion. Over the course of a century, it produced tens of millions of cars, but it did not start with transport.
The company originated in 1862 as a small manufactory producing sewing machines. Its founder was Adam Opel along with his sons, who took an active part in the family business.
Adam named his first car model “Sofia” in honor of his wife, and the company’s first logo displayed his own initials. The company’s emblem depicted a curly letter “O” in red, inside which was the same curly gold letter “A”.
Opel Astra Errors on the Dashboard
Failed to decrypt 000970 Opel Astra H and fix the problems yourself
Vehicle problems are often identified by self-diagnosis systems that report problems using codes. Opel astra g owner history. observations. What is the yellow exclamation mark on the x3 dashboard? Are you familiar with this situation: suddenly a symbol you've never seen flashes on your dashboard? Failed to decrypt Opel Astra. no is always simple, but some obstacles such as 000970 can be simple DIY.
If there is any malfunction, the Opel Astra H warns the owner with a light on the dashboard. error code , you must simultaneously remove the key, simultaneously hold down the brake and gas pedals and turn on the key, turning on the electronics, but not starting the car. The code will appear in the odometer window.
Errors displayed on tool always cause unpleasant emotions. Unfortunately, decoding is not always available in repair and maintenance manuals. Error 000970 Opel Astra N (aka U000970) is not critical, and you can fix it yourself.
Bicycles
In the 80s of the 19th century, Adam's sons became interested in a relatively new invention at that time - bicycles. They constantly participate in popular bicycle races and are working on the company's next product.
In 1886, the company produced penny farthings - models with a high front wheel, and then moved on to the production of “safe” (Safety bicycle) models, which are still common today.
The Opel logo is completely changed. In a gray oval field in the shape of the letter "O" a cyclist is depicted, above whom the goddess of victory hovers with a laurel crown in her hand. At the top, in an oval edging, is the inscription Victoria Blitz (“lightning victory”), and at the bottom is the name of the company owner.
Later, the emblem turns into a figured Opel inscription on a red background, framed by a gold ornament. At the top is the date - 1899 - at the bottom is the inscription Fahrräder, which means “cyclist”. This is the logo that was present on most of the company’s products.
Cars
After the death of the founder, the company changes direction again. His sons enter into an agreement with Friedrich Lutzmann and, based on his developments, begin to produce their first cars and motorcycles.
They soon break the contract. And already in 1902 they presented their own model of the car. In honor of this event, a new Opel logo appears in the form of a red oval plate with the company name in the middle. At the top in the border there is the inscription Motorwagenfabrik, at the bottom there is the inscription RUSSELHEIM - the name of the city where the factory is located.
Car diagram - Opel Astra
We present to your attention electrical circuit diagrams for the Opel Astra 2004-2006. The Opel Astra has an impressive range of basic and additional options for its class. The Opel Astra is equipped with an adaptive electronic suspension control system (IDSPlus); system of continuously variable control of its characteristics (CDC); The IDS plus system ensures good dynamic performance of the car when entering the sport mode, which can be activated by simply pressing a special button. For the first time, cars of this class are equipped with an adaptive headlight control system (AFL) and a system for automatically turning them on when the road illumination decreases. In 2004, a 200-horsepower modification of the latest generation Opel Astra hatchback was released. Under the hood of the car there is a two-liter turbo engine producing 200 hp. The car accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 8.2 seconds, and its top speed is 230 km/h. The standard equipment of the new product includes the IDS-Plus active suspension system, which received sports settings, bi-xenon headlights, 17-inch wheels with sports tires, as well as a slightly different appearance and modernized interior trim.

Lightning
Subsequently, the Opel logo changed a large number of times. In 1909, it was depicted in the form of only the Opel inscription, made in gold. From 1910 to 1930, the shape resembled the human eye and was made in various color and stylistic variations.
In the 1930s, the company began producing very fast trucks, and lightning appeared on the logo for the first time. Its silhouette consisted of the words Opel Blitz.
In the 1940s, the company came under state control. All its resources are now aimed at building up the military potential of Nazi Germany. To show the country's engineering excellence and technological development, the Opel logo features an airship passing through the letter "O".
At the end of the war, the factory in Rüsselsheim was almost completely destroyed by Soviet troops. Later it returns to private ownership, resuming the production of peaceful products. Now it produces not only cars, but also bodies and components, locating factories in various countries around the world.
Since 1964, the logo has taken the form of a lightning bolt that crosses a circle horizontally. Despite some changes in style, the overall image has remained the same since then. This is how the Opel logo is known to us today.
What is Opel? Meaning of the word opel, automobile dictionary
Opel – (Adam Opel AG), a German automobile company, part of the General Motors concern. Produces cars, minibuses, light vans (minivans). The headquarters is located in Rüsselsheim. The company was founded in 1898 by the five Opel brothers and bears the full name of their father, Adam Opel, founder and owner of a sewing machine and bicycle factory. The brothers began production by manufacturing motorcycles, assembling their first car model on a French chassis and engine (Darracq). The first original model of the two-cylinder Opel appeared in 1902. The brothers began mass production and quickly gained recognition, but a fire in 1911 destroyed the factory. The installation of modern equipment, carried out out of necessity, led the company to rapid success; Soon, a conveyor appeared at Opel enterprises for the first time in Europe. The company relied on the mass consumer. In 1913 the company began producing the first trucks. The exquisite Opel Laubfrosch (literally tree frog), so called because of its bright green color, was frankly similar to the Citroen 5 CV, but was much more successful due to a well-thought-out sales strategy through its own network. Years of explosive post-war inflation brought heavy losses to the company, and the brothers transferred their enterprise to the General Motors concern in the late 1920s. Opel became the largest automobile company in Europe, focusing its efforts on the production of small and middle-class cars. The car design retained the typically European features of the early Opels: Opel Olympia and Opel Kadett, small class models, became a kind of symbol of their time. The Opel Admiral sedan (“Opel Admiral”) created an image of “powerful beauty” with its outlines. During the period of Nazi rule, the enterprises were actually confiscated from General Motors and the company became state-owned. Most of Opel's production base was exported to the USSR at the end of World War II (here the equipment ended up at the Moscow Small Car Plant, later known as AZLK, some went to GAZ), but the company quickly restored and exceeded the pre-war production level. The 1953 Opel Rekord was the top seller in West Germany for ten years. In the 1960s, the company introduced the Opel Kapitan and the Opel GT coupe, these large cars were a response to the increased demand for expensive cars. The Opel Manta sports coupe appeared in the 1970s. The range of models was completely redesigned and expanded in the 1990s; The most important model in the modern program was the Astra model, which replaced the Cadet line. The company currently controls a quarter of car production in Germany, ranking second after Volkswagen. On the territory of modern Russia, the company has created a number of joint ventures.
