Vauxhall Corsa 2007






2007 Vauxhall Corsa - Overview

- All-new 2007 Vauxhall Corsa on sale in autumn
- Three and five-door models available from launch
- Fresh looks, agile handling and top levels of quality
- Dynamic design and driving excitement in two very different styles

Vauxhall's eagerly-awaited New Corsa is gearing up to inject a healthy dose of style and driving fun into the supermini market.

Built in two unique body styles - a sporty, low-slung three-door and a stylish yet practical five-door, the new model is set to usher in new levels of quality, style and driving dynamics when it arrives in showrooms this autumn.


Vauxhall Corsa - Style

Wider, longer and more muscular looking than the current Vauxhall Corsa, the new model has been designed with individual style very much at the core of its appeal.

The 3-dr model has a coupe-like roofline and a high shoulder line, giving it the look of a sporty car rather than an ordinary hatchback - a look already successfully achieved by Vauxhall with the much-lauded Astra Sport Hatch.

Large, dominant headlamps enhance the car's sporty, powerful character, while the steeply inclined A-Pillar manages to shorten the look of the bonnet, while at the same time lowering the roof height.

At the rear, butch wheelarches and a distinctive tapered rear window give New Corsa 3-dr an even more striking look.

New Vauxhall Corsa 5-dr is distinctly different. It shares the 3-dr model's front wings, bonnet and bumper, but is completely different from the scuttle panel backward. The rear window descends at a much steeper angle, making the best use of interior and luggage space. Yet although it was designed with practicality in mind, the 5-dr retains a stylish, harmonious profile.

Bryan Nesbitt, GM Europe's Executive Director of Design, said: "The new Corsa builds on our commitment to offer dynamic vehicles regardless of segment. The fashion-conscious exterior, coupled to a refreshingly innovative interior hope to exceed the target customer's expectations".


Vauxhall Corsa - Interior

The stylish design continues inside the cabin, with neat touches including a piano-black lacquer effect on selected models, as well as translucent backlit dials for both major and minor controls.

Overall quality marks a significant step forward for Corsa, especially inside, where the consistently high grade materials give a luxurious, upmarket feel. A range of vibrant interior colours and door trims, coupled to a large glass area give the cabin a bright, modern and airy feel.
