The Opel Frogster is a concept car built by Opel in 2001. It premiered at the September 2001 Frankfurt Motor Show.[1] The Frogster could be transformed from a convertible to a roadster or a pickup truck by using a built in personal digital assistant (PDA)[2], which was mounted between the two front seats. The Frogster was mainly targeted towards younger buyers.[3] There have never been nor are there now plans for the Frogster to be released as a production vehicle.
The Frogster contained new technology not yet used by any production car. A personal digital assistant between the front seats could control most of the functions of the car. It was also unusual because it could transform the car into three different body styles.
