Corsa, no doubt is a hot cake of the market especially in family hatchbacks, it has firm position. Its exterior is little bit aged but still reasonable.

Vauxhall has used its engine lineup in Corsa cleverly. All engines are not very fast and not with some extra power. All engines are medium size and with reasonable power that suits best to Corsa. In petrol engines, 1.0-Litre is real gem. And in diesel engines 1.3-Litre unit is great due to its economical fuel consumption. Driving of Corsa gives you a comfortable feel.
With manual gearbox all engines are impressively smooth, calm and quiet. Handling is also good and perfect due to good steering control. Suspensions are equally good in behave. Latest Corsa is a grown up version of the old Corsa with some new refinements and amendments. Corsa offers great diving experience due to its cool, calm and responsive engines.
