Vauxhall Adam Rocks baby Crossover ready for production

The Vauxhall Adam Rocks (pictured) ready to roll in to production

At last year’s Geneva Motor Show we got the first look at the Vauxhall Adam Rocks Concept, a butch little ADAM with raised ride height, extra cladding and a cabrio roof as Vauxhall attempted to turn their latest city car in to a funky urban Crossover / baby SUV. And the Vauxhall Adam Rocks is back at Geneva this year only this time it’s a production car that should launch later in the summer – and it looks like it should do well.

With a ride height raised by 15mm, retuned suspension, extended wheel arches and the required black plastic cladding needed to turn it in to a pseudo off-roader (and 17″ or 18″ alloys) the ADAM Rocks looks the part.

The folding cabrio roof remains from the concept and folds in just 5 seconds, there’s silver skid plates front and back and new roof and body colour options to set the Rocks apart.

Vauxhall has also given the Rocks its own character on the inside with one interior trim option taken straight from last year’s concept with Peanut-coloured fabric/Morrocana seats, door panels, leather steering wheel, gearshift and handbrake and a Coffe Bean design feturing dark brown seats with bright blue stitching. Honestly.

Engine option are the new 1.0 litre 3-pot going in the rest of the ADAM range in either 89bhp or 113bhp guise, a 1.4 litre petrol with 69bhp or a 1.4 litre with 86bhp or 99bhp. Choose the 3-Pot.

The production version of the VauxhallA dam Rocks will debut next month at the Geneva Motor SHow and go on sale in the UK in thge summer. Production is scheduled to start in August 2014 in Germany.
