Opel Adam Becomes a Talking Car Thanks to Siri Eyes Free

Opel says the it's integrated Apple's Siri Eyes Free systems into the Adam, making it the fist talking car in it class. Siri Eyes Free can send messages, make appointments and play your music, all without you having to use the computer.

Using a steering wheel-mounted button, customers with a compatible iPhone running iOS 6 (either the 4S or the 5, of course) can direct Siri Eyes Free to perform a number of tasks while they keep their eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel.

In the Vauxhall ADAM equipped with the IntelliLink infotainment system, owners can use Siri Eyes Free to:

• Make voice-activated, hands-free calls to Contacts on their iPhone
• Play chosen songs in their iTunes libraries without having to spend time scrolling through menus – and therefore being distracted while driving
• Listen to, or compose and send an iMessage, text message or mail to a phone number or anyone in saved Contacts
• Access Calendar and add appointments, read incoming notifications as well as configuration for alarm and notification settings
• And, of course, Siri also answers simple questions such as game scores, weather or the dates of national holidays
