Adam Revo

Motor vehicle

The Adam Revo was a city car made by the now dead Adam Motor Company of Pakistan. It was the first car to be designed and assembled in Pakistan and was launched in 2005.^[1] The name "REVO" was derived from the word revolution, which it was supposed to make.^[2] However, production stopped by September 2006^[3] due to unavailability of funds and lack of government support.^[4] Only 600 cars were sold.^[2]

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.
