Clean, clever, cool, … The Opel Rocks-e stands for sustainable urban mobility (SUM) – and that already at age fifteen. The micro-mobile for inner-city traffic sporting a stylish design is emissions-free and has space for two.
Torsten KLINKOW c/o SEVERIN WENDELER photographed the little mobility wiz for the agency McCann Velocity and the client Opel.
The car is designed for short distances; it’s only half as long as a midsize car – so it fits into the smallest parking spaces. A turning radius of 7.2 meters means the tiniest Opel is extremely maneuverable. And minimalism is the name of the game for the engine, too : So that the Rocks-e can already be driven by fifteen-year-olds with an AM driver’s license, its top speed is 45 km/h. By the way, the micro-mobile is equipped with storage areas and not a classic trunk.
Since November, 2021, the Opel Rocks-e is available online for customers to order, or they can stop by carefully selected Opel dealerships to see it up close. The Opel Rocks-e was designed by the carmaker headquartered in Rüsselsheim to take a load off city traffic – and help teenagers get the first car of their own as early as fifteen. The electric cube is already available starting at € 7,990.

POLESTAR 2 on tour of the United States. The American version of the Polestar 2 Road Show, aka 2 on Tour, put in no less than 34 stops – from Westport, Connecticut, all the way to San Jose, California, giving plenty of folks a chance to take it for the so decisive first test drive. Because switching to an electric vehicle is always a special moment.
Dejan & Per c/o SEVERIN WENDELER photographed the POLESTAR 2 for its first US road show.
“Not only has it succeeded in bringing both the brand and its first fully electric vehicle to locations such as Columbia, South Carolina, or even Scottsdale, Arizona, the road show has also seen several photographers take the Polestar 2 for extended test drives, echoing the Cherrydeck competition. Road trips are packed with symbolism. Freedom. Self-determination. Exploration. And now, thanks to the Polestar 2 Road Show, they also symbolize a more sustainable electric future.” POLESTAR.
