Eminyakeni engu-52 edlule, umnyango ozoguqula imboni yezimoto wasungulwa eJalimane: I-Opel Design Studio.
Maphakathi nekhulu lamashumi amabili, izindlu zokuklama zase-Italy (i-carrozzeria) zazibusa imboni ngesikhathi sokuzilibazisa - akuyona into engaqondakali ukuthi isifunda saseTurin enyakatho ye-Italy sasibhekwa njengeMecca yomklamo wezimoto. UPietro Frua, uGuiseppe Bertone kanye noPininfarina kwakungamanye amagama abaluleke kakhulu ngaleso sikhathi, besungula izinkampani zabo zokwakha izimoto phakathi kwe-Alps ne-Apennines. Ngokuhlangene, babenomthwalo wemfanelo wokuklama amamodeli amaningi aphawula imboni yamasondo amane.
Iningi labakhiqizi bezimoto baseYurophu baphathise ochwepheshe bangaphandle umsebenzi wokwenza ama-prototypes amasha. Umnyango wokuqala wokuklama wohlobo lwaseYurophu olufanele igama wavela kuphela ngo-1964, obizwa nge-Opel Design Studio.

Umbono wokwenza isitudiyo sokuklama somkhiqizo uqhamuke kuGeneral Motors, inkampani engumzali ye-Opel e-USA. Ngo-1927, i-Art & Color Section, eholwa ngu-Harley Earl, kamuva owathola ukuqokwa kwe-GM Styling, yayidaliwe. Ngo-1938, uGM wethula i-Buick Y-Job, imoto yomqondo wokuqala emlandweni (esithombeni ngezansi). Inhloso bekuwukusungula uhlelo olusha olukhulu oluguqulekayo ukuze lwethulwe emphakathini.
Kamuva, u-Clare M. MacKichan, Inhloko Yokuklama kwa-Chevrolet, wavakashela e-Rüsselsheim, eJalimane, ngenhloso yokusungula ithimba elinjongo yalo kuzoba ukwakha ulimi lokuklama izimoto zakwa-Opel ezilandelayo. Ngakho, isikhungo se-GM Styling sathuthelwa esakhiweni saseRüsselsheim ngezinga elincane, kwathi ngo-1964 kwavulwa i-Opel Design Studio.

Kodwa umsebenzi e-Rüsselsheim wawuyinkimbinkimbi kakhulu kunalokho okwakucatshangwa ngaphambili: ngaphezu kokuthuthukiswa okudingekayo kolimi olusha lokuklama lwamamodeli we-Opel, labo abanomthwalo wemfanelo babe nenselele yokulindela nokuthuthukisa imigqa yezimoto zesikhathi esizayo. Njengoba usuvele ubona, ukuklama kwabonwa umkhiqizo njengephuzu lamasu lempumelelo yesikhathi eside, futhi yilokho kanye okwenza umehluko.Ngakho, i-Opel Design Studio yaba ukuphela komnyango wokuklama eYurophu futhi yathuthuka ngokushesha yaba isikole saseYurophu sokuklama izimoto. Eminyakeni engaphezu kwamashumi amahlanu kamuva, abasunguli bomnyango wokuklama bayaqhubeka nokuvakashela izikhungo. Phakathi kwamamodeli ayizifanekiso adalwe yi-Opel Design Studio kule minyaka engu-52 yokusebenza, i-Opel GT yodumo iyagqama. Imodeli yaseJalimane yaba ngumlandeli wemvelo we-Opel Experimental GT, echazwe kuvidiyo engezansi ngumdali wayo, u-Erhard Schnell:
