Vauxhall has released the pricing and specification details for the new Corsa. The popular supermini will be available in three trims: Design, GS, and Ultimate, with prices starting from £19,625. Customers can now place their orders, and the first deliveries are expected in Q4 2023.

 

The new Corsa features Vauxhall’s bold Vizor front end design across the entire range, along with various styling and technology upgrades. The electric version of the Corsa benefits from Vauxhall’s latest battery technology, improving both range and performance.

 

The Vauxhall Corsa was the best-selling supermini and the second best-selling car in the UK in 2022. It also topped the overall sales charts in 2021 and continues to be the best-selling car in its segment this year. These achievements contribute to Vauxhall’s goal of becoming an electric-only manufacturer from 2028.

 

Vauxhall Vizor

 

The new Corsa incorporates Vauxhall’s distinctive Vizor front end design, which consists of a single smooth panel between the LED headlights. This panel houses advanced driver aids and safety technologies, with the iconic Griffin logo at the center.

 

Other updates to the exterior styling include 17-inch black alloy wheels, black roof, black badging, and black Corsa lettering on GS and Ultimate models.

 

All Corsa models come with LED headlights as standard. The Ultimate trim features Vauxhall’s IntelliLux LED® Pixel Matrix light technology, which automatically adjusts the beam to avoid dazzling oncoming road users and ensures clear visibility in dark and poor conditions.

 

Upgraded Interior

 

The interior of the new Corsa has been upgraded, including an enhanced infotainment system with a new 10-inch touchscreen. This system offers Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ compatibility, with wireless connectivity available on Electric models equipped with the upgraded 156PS powertrain, as well as petrol GS and Ultimate trims. The Corsa Electric 156PS variant also includes wireless phone charging, Vauxhall Connect, and Connected Navigation. The latter is also available on petrol Ultimate models.

 

The petrol Design models come with a standard 3.5-inch digital instrument cluster, while all other trims feature a larger 7-inch display. The display in GS, Ultimate, and Electric 156PS models boasts new graphics.

 

The new Corsa features an updated steering wheel design and offers new front sports seats on GS and above trims. The Ultimate trim enhances comfort with heated and massaging seats finished in Alcantara®, a luxury material. Ultimate models also come with a heated steering wheel.

 

New Corsa Electric

 

The updated Corsa Electric now features Vauxhall’s next-generation 51kWh battery combined with an upgraded electric motor, delivering 156PS. The new powertrain offers improved performance and a range of 246 miles (WLTP) between charges.

 

Starting from 3rd August, customers will have the option to choose between two powertrain options for the Corsa Electric. The existing 100kW (136PS) powertrain will still be available, providing up to 222 miles of range (WLTP). This powertrain option will now be offered in Design and GS trims as well.

 

All Corsa Electric models come with an 11kW on-board charger as standard, allowing for a full 0-100% charge in 5 hours and 15 minutes. Using a 7kW home wallbox, a full charge is estimated to take 7 hours and 30 minutes. The Corsa Electric supports 100kW rapid charging, enabling a 10%-80% charge in just 30 minutes.

 

In addition to the electric variants, the new Corsa is also available with a choice of efficient 1.2-litre petrol engines. Customers can select from a naturally-aspirated 75PS engine with a five-speed manual gearbox, a turbocharged 100PS engine with a six-speed manual or eight-speed automatic gearbox, or a 130PS unit offered as an eight-speed automatic.

 

Later this year, Vauxhall will introduce a new 48-volt hybrid powertrain that provides improved efficiency without the need for charging.

 

Specification

 

As part of Vauxhall’s simplified range, petrol variants of the new Corsa are available in three trims: Design, GS, and Ultimate. The Corsa Electric is available with the next-generation 156PS powertrain in GS and Ultimate trims, while from 3rd August, the existing 136PS powertrain will also be offered in Design and GS trims.

 

All Corsa models come with LED headlights as standard. The Design trim offers automatic headlights and wipers, and rear parking sensors for added convenience. Safety features include automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, lane departure warning with lane keep assist, and speed sign recognition.

The GS trim adds a rear-view parking camera with a high-resolution panoramic display for Electric 156PS models. The alloy wheels are upgraded to 17 inches, and a 7-inch digital instrument cluster is included. Electric GS 156PS models also come with keyless entry and start.

The Ultimate trim enhances the headlights with Vauxhall’s IntelliLux LED® Pixel Matrix light technology. Additional driver assist features include Blind Spot Alert (also available on Electric GS 156PS models) and Adaptive Cruise Control with Lane Positioning Assist. Comfort is improved with heated and massaging seats finished in Alcantara® and a heated steering wheel. Keyless entry and start are available on both petrol and Electric variants.
