What kind of car is the Opel Tigra?
The Opel Tigra changed character between generations. The first was a compact coupé based on the Corsa; its successor, the Tigra TwinTop, was a small convertible with a folding metal roof. That gave the model a more open-air feel while keeping it compact.
Tigra generations
The Tigra A was a small coupé with a rounded design and a rear seat. The Tigra B, sold as the TwinTop, replaced that layout with two seats and a retractable hardtop. It turned the Tigra into a compact convertible, with the roof folding away when the weather called for open-air driving.
