The Rover Metro, a compact hatchback produced by the British car manufacturer Rover Group from 1980 to 1990, represented a significant shift in the company's approach to the small car market. Designed by the legendary automotive design house, Stile Bertone, the Metro's sleek, aerodynamic lines and diminutive dimensions were a stark contrast to the boxy, utilitarian vehicles that had dominated Rover's previous offerings. While based on the Austin Mini's platform, the Metro introduced a number of groundbreaking features, including a transversely mounted engine, front-wheel drive, and a fully independent suspension. This combination of advanced engineering and stylish design made the Metro a popular choice for buyers seeking a practical and affordable city car. The Metro was initially offered with a range of small-capacity petrol engines, with the iconic 1.0-litre unit becoming the mainstay. However, the model's appeal quickly spread beyond its initial target market, thanks to the introduction of more powerful variants such as the Metro Turbo. This sporty model, equipped with a turbocharged 1.3-litre engine, delivered impressive performance and cemented the Metro's reputation as a capable and engaging driver's car. Over its decade-long production run, the Metro underwent several revisions and updates, with the introduction of a new 1.1-litre engine and the adoption of a more modern, angular design in 1989. Despite its eventual replacement by the Rover 100, the Metro left a lasting legacy as a successful and influential compact car, contributing significantly to Rover's resurgence in the 1980s.
