Probably wont be so expensive.Because you have to look at your target market and the Adam' s market cant afford that price for a city car.But the engine looks new in fact all SIDI enginez are brand new and chain driven.SIDI stans for Spark Ignition Direct Injection.
There is a 1.6 version as well and a 3 cylinder 1.0 version.
These engines will definately become available in our local Opels in da future for sure.
Check link for more info on adam.
