Brave, simple and full of emotion: The new Corsa design with Opel Visor!
With its bold and simple appearance, the New Opel Corsa has very balanced proportions down to the smallest detail. Designers have made the best-selling car in its segment much more modern and bold. One of the most striking features of the new Corsa is the Opel Visor, the characteristic brand face that adorns all new Opel models. The Black Visor covers the front of the Corsa, combining the vehicle grille, LED headlights and Opel’s central “Lightning” logo into a single element. Depending on the equipment level, the brand logo on the front and rear is applied in eye-catching black or matt satin silver. The air intakes in the lower front bumper are now larger and more prominent. This gives the new Corsa an even more solid and powerful stance on the road.
Corsa draws attention with its exciting lines when viewed from the side. The split C-pillar makes the roof, available in black depending on equipment level, appear to float above the vehicle. A clear view is also offered on the rear facade. As in the special version of the “Opel Corsa 40”, which was produced in limited numbers for the first time a few months ago, the Corsa logo is located in the middle of the trunk lid. In addition, the Graphic Gray body color, offered for the first time with Corsa, helps the new model shine magnificently.
Intuitive and focused on what is necessary: New cockpit design!
Thanks to numerous new features, Corsa creates a feel-good and modern atmosphere in the interior for the driver. Apart from the new seat models, a new gear lever and steering wheel also contribute to the design. Another important visual and technical innovation is the optional, fully digital cockpit with a new infotainment system. Qualcomm Technologies’ integrated Snapdragon Cockpit Platform features advanced graphics, multimedia, computer vision and artificial intelligence (AI) for a more integrated, contextually aware and constantly adaptable cockpit experience that can evolve to meet passengers’ needs.
Just like the current Astra generation, the “Maximum Detox” principle has been implemented in the new Corsa.

In addition, the images on the 10-inch color touch screen of the navigation and multimedia system and the driver information display are now even clearer. Thus, important information can be seen in a fraction of a second. For the first time, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatible smartphones can be wirelessly connected to the vehicle’s infotainment system and charged.

With more options, more power, advanced battery and more range, the new Corsa Electric takes this to the next level.
