Vauxhall’s top-of-the-range Adam Grand Slam will make its UK debut at Autosport International 2015 tomorrow in Birmingham.
Previewed at last year’s Geneva and Frankfurt Motor Shows, the Adam Grand Slam features slick design and a spirited 1.4-litre turbo 148bhp powertrain. It also gets a specially-tuned chassis and a VXR braking system.
With 162lb/ft of torque, the new version of the 1.4-litre Turbo ECOTEC unit boasts a specific power output exceeding 97bhp/litre. It is a turbocharged, high performance unit derived from the Adam’s existing four-cylinder, 1.4-litre engine, that has been exclusively developed for this model.
The front lip spoiler, side sill mouldings and an extended rear bumper cut-out with a visible, bold exhaust tailpipe make the bodywork appear more muscular then a standard Adam. And inside, the driver and front passenger can choose between four different seat arrangements, three of which are exclusively available for this variant. Orders will open this month.
