Adam will be app-friendly

Apps on an owner's smartphone will be accessible on the touchscreen of Opel's new small car, the Adam, which debuts at next month's Paris Motor Show, writes Brian Byrne.

The car will offer the 'My Media' infotainment system, to which both Apple and Android smartphones can be connected to provide a fully interactive internet capability.

The 3.7 metre car will also give the owner a high level of customability with a wide range of accessories available across its three grades, labelled 'Jam', 'Glam' and 'Slam'.

The Adam features a retro look, and is named after the founder of the company, Adam Opel. It will arrive in Ireland early in 2013.
