Opel's journey is truly remarkable, starting from its humble beginnings in Rüsselsheim, Germany. Founded by Adam Opel in 1862 as a sewing machine manufacturer, it wasn't until after WWI that they started producing cars. The Opel P4 in 1924 marked a significant milestone for the company, solidifying their place in the European automotive market. The post-war era saw Opel experience rapid growth, expanding its product line and establishing itself as a leading European automaker. Notably, the introduction of the iconic Kadett in 1962 was a turning point, allowing Opel to tap into the growing demand for affordable family cars.
