C'MON Check the style
Corsa looks brilliant from every angle. The seriously sporty three-door, sharp and dynamic with real attitude. And the flexible five-door  maybe a little more grown-up, but ever so versatile and wonderfully well proportioned. On the inside, we've got sharp tailored fabrics, clean lines, modern surface finishes and chrome-effect detailing. And every model has its own unique personality, so all you have to do is choose the one that matches yours.

always respecting our world.
We all share a responsibility to look after our world. That's why Opel has always been at the forefront of green automotive initiatives. Most recently, we are looking at ways to further reduce vehicle CO2 emissions and working on even cleaner, alternative power sources, including zero-emission fuel cell technology. But our commitment to preserving the environment goes even further. We have drastically reduced manufacturing emissions, for example, and our new vehicles use more recycled materials and more recyclable parts than ever before. We also offer free and easily accessible, environmentally friendly, end-of-life vehicle disposal. That way, we reduce our environmental impact in every phase of every vehicle's life cycle. Because your world is our world, too.
A new dimension of driving fun
Okay, we could just tell you that the Corsa chassis has been designed to ensure pure driving pleasure without ever compromising ride comfort. But wouldn't it be better to discover how much fun it is to drive by trying it for yourself?
Easytronic. Choose Corsa's optional Easytronic transmission and you'll get a five-speed manual gearbox with a fully automatic mode. In manual mode, you simply push the lever forward or back to shift gears up or down and by nudging the lever to the side you switch to fully automatic mode. There's no clutch pedal so you can drive it on an automatic-only driving licence.
Speed-sensitive steering. With Corsa's power-assisted steering, it's easier to turn the wheel at parking speeds when you need assistance the most, but it's more stable, with more feedback, once you're out on the road. We've also modified the steering components for even more precise handling and straight line control. The setup is even tuned to the specific engine to ensure the perfect level of assistance.
Engines and dynamics
Please note: not all of the features listed are available on every model. Please consult your Opel dealer for full availability details.
Corsa ecoFLEX models. The Corsa ecoFLEX models have among the lowest vehicle CO2 emissions in Ireland. The 1.3CDTi 16v (75PS) features improved fuel economy and reduced emissions, down to just 114g/km. And for the first time, there's also an ecoFLEX petrol model too  the new 1.0i 12v (65PS) with just 117g/km CO2. Both ecoFLEX models are eligible for Band A for VRT and annual Road Tax.
Turbo diesels. Corsa's 1.3CDTi 16v engines  75PS and 90PS  are low on emissions, with serious mid-range punch and incredible economy. How do we do it? Common rail injection, an intercooled turbocharger and plenty of Opel know-how.
Chassis. The Corsa chassis combines serious ride comfort with real agility. Especially now, as modifications to the spring, damper and anti-roll bar settings have resulted in noticeably enhanced driving comfort. The advanced anti-lock braking system combines with other chassis safety features to improve stability and steering behaviour in a range of emergency situations. And we've even retuned the optional ESP to match the improved chassis response.
Petrol engines. Three new, Euro-5 compliant petrol engines are now available for Corsa, each delivering more power and improved fuel economy over their predecessors  yet with significantly lower CO2 emissions. The 1.0i 12v (65PS) ecoFLEX and 1.2i 16v (85PS) Easytronic engines have CO2 emissions of just 117 and 119g/km respectively, now enabling them to qualify for Band A of VRT. The manual 1.2i 16v (85PS) remains in Band B and is now joined by both manual and automatic versions of the 1.4i 16v (100PS) engine  showing an attractive annual saving in Road Tax.
Six-speed and automatic. Corsa's 1.3CDTi 16v (90PS) and OPC 1.6i 16v Turbo models come with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. Others come with a five-speed manual as standard, with a sophisticated fourspeed automatic also available.

Airbags. Most Corsa models feature double-action front seatbelt pretensioners and up to six airbags, including front seat side-impact and curtain airbags too. Press a button on the centre console to deactivate the front passenger's airbag and you can keep a rear-facing child seat up front.
Safety and security
10
ABS and ESP-plus. Corsa's Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) includes safety features like Emergency Brake Assist, Straight Line Stability control and Cornering Brake Control as standard. Electronic Stability Programme-plus (ESP-plus) is standard on OPC models and optional on all others.
Adult occupant rating
Double pretensioners. Front seatbelt pretensioners act on the diagonal shoulder restraint on all models. And on the lap belt too, on SC models and above. So in the event of a collision, they're ready to interact with the front airbags and compensate for lateral seat movement.
Security. Every Corsa features an engine deadlock immobiliser and central locking with an internal door locking switch for added reassurance in the event of unwanted attention from outside the car.
Adaptive brake lights. ABS brakes can shorten your stopping distance in slippery road conditions, but what about the driver behind you? With Corsa, if the ABS is activated at over 29km/h, your brake lights blink at five times a second, warning the following driver that you're emergency braking.
Door-to-door illumination. Every Corsa features door-to-door illumination. Just flick the headlight stalk as you exit the car and the dipped headlights and rear lights stay on for 30 seconds  helping you find your way safely out of an unlit driveway or car park. All models feature welcome lighting too, switching on the interior light and rear number plate lights when the car is unlocked.
Halogen AFL. Another feature you might not expect on a car this size, optional Halogen Adaptive Forward Lighting moves the headlight beams up to 15 degrees left or right of the straight ahead position when you turn the steering wheel, helping improve your vision of the approaching bend.
Please note: not all of the features listed are available on every model. Please consult your Opel dealer for full availability details.
Intelligent safety
Our life-saving safety features are almost taken for granted on Opel cars nowadays, but it doesn't mean we've stopped inventing new ones. Double front seatbelt pretensioners and adaptive brake lights are just two examples of how Corsa achieves such a high safety rating.
Flex-Fix®. If your plans change all the time, so can your Corsa. Choose the optional revolutionary Flex-Fix® system and it incorporates an integrated carrier for two bikes, so you don't need a separate roof or rear carrier.
Luggage area. A DualFloor luggage compartment  fitted as standard on OPC and available as an extra cost option on SE and SXi models  adds luggage versatility. When the rear seat backs are folded, it provides a long, level, load surface which makes loading that bit easier. And when lowered, it offers a deeper load area.
Infotainment. If quality sounds are high on your agenda, you won't be disappointed by Corsa. Choose S and you get a quality CD player/radio. Select SC, SE, SXi or OPC and you're also treated to MP3 CD format and an auxiliary-in socket so you can play tracks direct from your personal MP3 player. And to top that OPC models are available with a CD autochanger. Optional infotainment systems offer the very best in satellite navigation too. A mobile phone system* with Bluetooth® wireless connectivity and voice activation is also available as an option or as part of the Technical Pack on SC models.

Air con and ECC. Air conditioning provides chilled air on hot days, faster demisting on damp days and a more pleasant atmosphere throughout the year. Move up to Electronic Climate Control (ECC) for a more consistent interior temperature. On SE models the front seats and the steering wheel are heated.
Rain and light sensors. Automatic lighting control can switch the car's lights on when it gets dark. Other sensors can switch the wipers on and even dim the rear-view mirror  all automatically. These features are standard on SE and optional as the Sight and Light Pack on SXi and OPC.
Cruise control. The twist up/twist down cruise control allows you to maintain a steady speed without keeping your foot on the accelerator. Standard on SE, SXi and OPC models.
Driving position. It's easy to find the perfect seating position with a driver's seat that moves six ways  including height adjustment  on most models. On SC models and above (optional on S as part of the Plus Pack), you'll find fully adjustable steering too.
Sunroof with interior blind. Corsa's optional electrically operated sunroof stretches wide across the car for maximum fresh air and blue sky. And if the sun's too strong, you simply wind out the roller blind to reduce glare. Noise is kept to a minimum thanks to an integrated wind deflector.
