These are remarkably better – yet still low res – shots of Opel’s long-gestating competitor to the Volkswagen Up!

But hey, they’re better than nothing, and at least we’ve finally got an undisguised look at exactly what Europeans will be getting from the German GM subsidiary when the Adam is revealed at the Paris Motor Show in the fall. We like the overall proportions, the wheels and the contrasting roof. While the front fascia isn’t nearly as cute as the Fiat 500, at least it’s not scowling. The one thing that rubs us the wrong way, however, is how off the front overhang looks, like it belongs on a larger car.

Of course, the caveat here is that these are hardly beauty shots so we’ll not prematurely judge the Adam before we see it out in the real world.
