Unleashing the Opel Rocks e-Xtreme
While city cars haven’t quite made their mark in the U.S., the Opel Rocks e-Xtreme challenges that notion with its eye-catching design. Created by design student Lukas Wenzhöfer, this electrifying vehicle emerged from a competition where the winner’s concept was transformed into a real car. The Rocks e-Xtreme, a highly modified version of the Citroën Ami EV, features widened wheels, aggressive styling, and off-road enhancements, giving it a dynamic presence that’s far from the typical city car.
What Sets the Rocks e-Xtreme Apart?
The Rocks e-Xtreme is not just a visual spectacle; its design includes practical modifications for improved performance. While it retains the stock e-Rocks’ 8-hp motor and 5.5-kWh battery, it boasts an exaggerated rear wing from the Vectra GTS V8 DTM race car and a roll cage integrated into its body. This quirky, fun twist on urban mobility highlights how even the simplest vehicles can be reimagined for excitement and individuality, making it a conversation starter for city dwellers and car enthusiasts alike.
