StreetFight3r 6th Gear October 19, 2020 Share October 19, 2020 The Opel Corsa is one of the German manufacturer’s best selling models, and now there’s an all-new sixth-generation model out, based around the same platform as the 2019 Peugeot 208. The two cars are mechanically very similar, but what they propose are two distinct visual packages - the 2020 Opel Corsa is the more sober and restrained of the two, so it’s probably pretty attractive to you if you prefer to be more low-key and not stand out as much as you would in, say, the flashier Peugeot 208. Aside from it sharing its underpinnings with other PSA products, the new Corsa also being offered in all-electric form for the first time. That model is called the Corsa-e and is motivated by a powertrain that is also shared with the new e-208). However, its platform sharing doesn’t affect the way it looks, and the 2020 Corsa looks like a current Opel model both inside and out. You can’t really spot the relation unless you know of it beforehand. The 2020 Opel Corsa’s new platform also helps it shed significant weight over its GM-Fiat underpinned predecessor and, in doing so, it has become quicker, more efficient, and better at going around corners too. Sitting inside, you’ll notice the much lower and sportier driving position as well as the feeling of being cocooned in the cabin - a feeling akin to that you get from a sports car. It even feels a bit sportier inside than its Peugeot-badged cousin. Heard the Opel Corsa will be on sale in sg soon... ↡ Advertisement 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartlander Turbocharged October 24, 2020 Share October 24, 2020 If the pictures in sgcarmart can be trusted, then the variant sold over here has better specs comparing to the Carbuyer review, such as virtual cockpit and sleek gear stick and electronic parking brake. And it can do century sprint of 8.7sec with a 1.2L turbo engine. But the rear is really CMI comparing to Jazz/Fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traveler Neutral Newbie October 28, 2020 Share October 28, 2020 So many shared components with Peugeot, down to the gear stick - seems like a repackaged 3008 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colorfulmouse 1st Gear October 29, 2020 Share October 29, 2020 (edited) really looks very very nice. will be interesting to see the fuel consumption. if the price can go below 90k i think it's a much better deal. the interior looks good. strange that Opel Crossland is cheaper than this car.

Opel Corsa 1.5 diesel, 2020. the inconvenience that I found ... there is no light in the glove compartment, nothing can be found at night. there is no sensor for the liquid that washes the windows (you never know when it ends), road stability sensors (autopilot) often do not work.I'm not happy to buy this car ( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
