2013 is kicking off with a brand new entry to the city hatch market – the Vauxhall Adam. This smart little three-door, four-seater model is designed with young city-dwellers in mind and presents strong competition to the Fiat 500 and MINI Hatch.

GM has invested €190m in its Eisenach factory in anticipation of the Adam’s additional sales – and it looks to introduce this second production line, but it’s paying off – more than 16,000 orders have been before the Adam’s official on-sale date of 19 January.
