I'm thinking small 4x4, only thing they don't have in the line up

Yeah, it's based on a shortened Corsa platform. Might even be renamed "Adam" from what I've read. I'll try and find the link again

Like a competitor to the CX5/Forrestor/X-Trail type thing?

Ah yer, just found those pics and some more

http://www.carbuzz.com/news/2012/4/27/Spied-Opel-Adam-not-Junior-is-the-All-New-City-Car-7708561/

So it could be called the Opel Adam, Opel Junior or Opel Allegra.

Opel Adam seems to be the more common name across the net

Although Opel Allegra fits in with the current naming convention of all the model names ending with "A"

And an artists rendition

My guess would be allegra, to fit in with all Opel car names finishing in a

Edit, Pete beat me :)

So how does this fit into a model line up? Why have two competing city cars?

It is destined to have an electric motor. This sits in under the corsa

Now that I missed. Makes sense!

Cheap and cheerful ampera maybe?

Combo already exists in new format.. It's ugly as sin looks like a Citroen/Peugeot

It's smaller than that too, will probably replace it
