VAUXHALL CORSA IS THE UK’S BEST-SELLING SUPERMINI
  • The Corsa is the top-selling supermini in August and year-to-date.

Vauxhall’s Corsa range continues to perform strongly in terms of sales in the UK, taking the top spot in two segments, as per the latest figures released by the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

In August, the Corsa was the best-selling B-Hatch, and it has maintained this position for the year so far. It is also the second best-selling car overall in the UK for this year, with a total of 25,692 units sold. The Corsa Electric is leading the way as the best-selling Small Electric Car (Electric B-Hatch) in 2023, with 2,220 units sold year-to-date.

Similarly, the Mokka Electric continues to dominate as the best-selling Small Electric SUV (Electric B-SUV) so far this year, with a total of 6,062 units sold.

Vauxhall has set a goal to transition into an all-electric brand by 2028, which is seven years ahead of the UK Government’s deadline.

Commenting on this success, James Taylor, Managing Director of Vauxhall, said, “It is exciting to see the Corsa continue to excel in the sales charts, both in its electric and petrol variants. The popularity of the Corsa Electric reflects our dedication to leading the UK’s transition to electrification.”

The new Corsa features Vauxhall’s striking Vizor front end design across its entire range, along with various enhancements in styling and technology. The fully electric models offer Vauxhall’s next-generation 51kWh battery, providing a range of up to 246 miles (WLTP). Orders for the new Corsa are now open, starting at £19,625, with first deliveries expected in Q4 2023.
