CDN-GM Interactive Design Contest 2013 is launched with Chevrolet design brief [w/Video]

The CDN-GM Interactive Design Contest is now open, so it's time to pick up your pencils, sketchbooks and tablets for the chance to win one of four three-month paid internships at one of GM's design studios.  Open to all full-time college or university students with at least one term left from across North America, this contest is a great chance to get noticed by one of the world's biggest carmakers and be used as a springboard for your car design career. You have until 1 November to submit your designs, but judges want to see your progress as well your final entry. They will be looking for proof of your thought process, project development and overall progress using customer and market research as well as inspiration and mood boards.

Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition – ‘Smartphone on Wheels’

Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition – 250 being built It’s no secret that Vauxhall want the ADAM to be as individual as possible, despite its rather generic appearance, so apart from a plethora of customisation options Vauxhall will be churning out regular limited editions – just like MINI and the Fiat 500. The latest limited editions are the Vauxhall ADAM Black Edition and ADAM White Edition which, say Vauxhall, offer even more levels of personalisation and takes many design cues from the Smartphone. That’s because, as Vauxhall claim, the ADAM is the best connected small car in its segment and the ADAM White and ADAM Black come with IntelliLink infotainment system and Siri eyes free as standard with controls in black or white with brushed aluminium accents, just like a typical smartphone.
