- Changes are limited to a black grille, a light grey body, and a white Opel Blitz emblem.
- The lineup of the heavy quadricycle will soon grow with the new Edition and GS trims.
Opel has introduced a mildly updated version of the Rocks heavy quadricycle, with changes being purely cosmetic. However, as part of the refresh, the company is now adding two new trims to the lineup – the Edition and the GS.
The Opel Rocks – formerly known as the Rocks-e and later as the Rocks Electric – was introduced in 2021. The EV is basically the Opel version of the Citroen Ami and Fiat Topolino and a rival to Renault’s Mobilize Duo. As with all heavy quadricycles, it can be driven by teenagers as young as 15 years old in certain countries.

While the Citroen Ami was subjected to a comprehensive retro-inspired facelift for 2025, Opel kept the old styling for the Rocks. Still, this is not necessarily bad, as each of Stellantis’ heavy quadricycle triplets now has its own distinct styling.
The only changes on the Rocks for 2025 are the black Opel Vizor grille, a light grey body with the omission of black graphics, and a white Opel Blitz emblem. Designers didn’t bother adding cooler lighting units from the one-off Rock E-Xtreme concept, but at least the headlights now have LED tech. Like its predecessor, the Rocks retains its symmetrical design and doors that open in opposite directions.
The two-seater interior is carried over from the existing Rocks Electric, although Opel has abandoned the lime green accents in favor of a more conservative white and gray color scheme.
A smartphone holder and a dedicated application substitute the need for an infotainment display. Interior amenities are limited to a USB port, a standard panoramic roof, manual pull-up side windows, and clever storage solutions, but no A/C.

There are no changes on the underpinnings of the heavy quadricycle, that retains the 8 hp (6 kW / 8 PS) electric motor and the 5.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Opel claims that the driving range is up to 75 km (47 miles) between charges, while top speed is limited to 45 km/h (28 mph).
Opel has announced that the updated Rocks will be launched soon in Europe. Furthermore, the lineup will grow with the addition of the Rocks Edition and Rocks GS trims, set to be unveiled closer to the market launch. Opel usually reserves the GS emblem for sporty-looking versions of its models, so it will be interesting to see if it will bring any cool features to the Rocks.
