The Adam Revo was a city car made by Adam Motor Company of Pakistan. It was the first car to be designed and assembled in Pakistan and was launched in 2005. [1] The car was fitted with Chinese-made engines of Wuling Motors. [2]

Contents

The name "REVO" was derived from the word revolution, which it was supposed to make. [3] However, production stopped by September 2006 [4] due to unavailability of funds and lack of government support. [5] Only 600 cars were sold. [3]

There were two variants available, equipped with two different Chinese made engines; the Revo 80 (0.8L) and Revo 105 (1.05L).

The Revo was envisaged to be between 10% and 15% cheaper than other local competitors, mainly the Mehran 800, which dominates Pakistan's automobile industry.
