Opel Adam Convertible Rendering Released

Take one Opel Corsa platform, copy it at 80% scale, add a touch of Fiat 500 and Citroen DS3 and you have the brand new Opel Adam city car. A lot is riding on the new generation Opel models, this one in particular being essential for the company’s turnaround.

Just like Fiat is doing with the 500, the Germans are hoping to turn a profit in the competitive market by offering lots of customization options. Instead of conventional trim levels, it’s offered in flavors – Jam, Glam and Slam, with prices ranging from €13,400 to €14,290 in Germany.

But that’s not all. Adam was designed from the get-go to be a convertible as well. We’re not talking about a BMW 6-Series rival here, simply a copy of the Fiat 500C’s design, where the roof is made of canvas and rolls back, but the roof pillars are intact.

It’s called a landaulet style and it does come with reduced visibility out the back, but keeps the kilos from piling on when the roof is cut. The Adam Convertible will make its official debut at the Geneva Motor Show in March, and we’re hoping it will be a hit, for Opel’s sake.

This is our own rendered interpretation of what we belie the Adam will most likely look like. We’re not particularly keen on the combination between ultra-modern styling and retro roof design, but we could be mistaken.

Also, Adam already had thick pillars at the back, restricting visibility, and now it’s been compromised even further by that bagged up roof.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
