VAUXHALL Corsa 1.2i 16v 3+5dr Hatch 13/14/15in tyreA [2005] Add to compare

When a model as popular as the Vauxhall Corsa gets an electric version, it’s a sure sign of a change in the automotive industry. To give credit where its due too, Vauxhall seems to be pitching the Corsa-e just as vigorously as its conventionally-powered stablemates, so the electric Corsa stands a good chance of becoming a big seller. With the option for buyers walking into dealerships of the same basic car but with petrol, diesel, or electric power, it will be fascinating to see just how many opt for plug-in performance. We test the Vauxhall Corsa-e to see whether the electric version stacks up.
