maltatoday, SUNDAY, 20 DECEMBER 2015 VIII Motoring VIII Motoring Best-looking in its class: Opel ADAM S wins design award SMALL Opel, big splash: The ADAM S pocket rocket was one of the big winners at the "autonis – Best Design Newcomer 2015" readers' choice awards. A huge majority of the 17,000 participants voted for the Opel ADAM S as the best-looking car in its class. "17,000 readers cannot be wrong! The convincing win of the ADAM S is a fan- tastic confirmation of our design philoso- phy: Sculptural Artistry meets German Precision. In addition, the ADAM shines with sheer endless individualisation possibilities, giving every customer the opportunity to create an ADAM accord- ing to their personal taste," said jubilant Mark Adams, Vice President Design Eu- rope, at the award ceremony in Stuttgart, Germany. The autonis readers' choice award held by automotive magazine auto motor und sport follows its own set of rules: Each participant can vote, two for positive and two for negative assessments. The final result is based on the following calcula- tion: If, for example, 20 per cent vote for model A as the winner and five per cent see it as a flop, model A receives overall score of 15. This result then determines the final position of model A. The ADAM S received an outstanding overall score of 50.1; the closest competitor only achieved a score of 29.8. The editors of auto motor und sport thus commented in their latest edition: "Opel ADAM S – incredibly versatile in configuring an unmistakable look."
