Geneva 2016: Opel GT is the unanimous car of the show
The little sports car from Rüsselsheim that everyone’s talking about
Whether on the show floor or at our Car Design Night, virtually every designer we spoke to had a stand-out car of the show – the little Opel GT sportscar.
Its delicate size and fantastical surfacing – both on its body panels and glazing – alongside classic cab-rear proportions are a great foundation for its superb detailing and clever colour and materials.
The interior is as strong as the outside with a fresh take on HMI design but in a package and form that draws in those who appreciate the idea that less is more. It’s early in the year but I’d predict a very strong showing in this year’s Car Design of the Year awards.
