Opel Adam in sales funk following strong early response?

Opel had an early hit with the Adam, a minicar named after the company's founder, but it appears sales are now tapering off, leading the General Motors-owned German brand to ease off production. German Car Scene reported yesterday that slow sales have stung the handsome Adam, with only 1,226 cars sold in August, which GCS argues is due to the car's relatively high starting price relative to the competition. The Adam starts at 11,500 euro ($15,627), whereas a microcar like the Volkswagen Up. is only about 10,000 euro ($13,589).
