GMs European division Opel, and subsequently its Vauxhall counterpart in Britain, will try to kill two birds with one stone at next months 83rd Geneva Auto Show, where they will present the new Adam Rocks Concept.
The study is based on the production Adam, which has been given a crossover-style makeover while also gaining a sardine can-like retractable fabric roof, similar to that found on the Fiat 500C and Citroen DS3 Cabrio, though, in Opels case, the rear windshield appears to remain intact. Riding on a 15mm taller suspension, the rugged-looking Adam Rocks features a 20mm wider stance thanks to a new body kit that adds plastic cladding on all four wheel arches, as well as on the bumpers and side skirts. Front and rear protective plates, a new set of alloy wheels and central exhaust pipe complete the transformation.
“With even bolder design than any other ADAM, the ROCKS is an impressive demonstration of how much more potential for individualization our new small lifestyle car still offers after its market launch. It combines the toughness of a crossover with the coolness of open air driving,” says Malcolm Ward, Opel/Vauxhall Lead Design Director.
