I think the styling is underrated. Other more trendy designs do just that: They follow some the current trends but those don't necessarily look that cool five years down the line. I think the Corsa design might endure because it's pretty well balanced overall. As for design details, I think you overlooked the nice wheel design and a good treatment of the two color paint with the blacked out roofline. The wheels are taunt and pushed to the corners which give it a nice stance. The C-piller forward swoop is especially well executed. Vauxhall needs to keep this up but it also needs a more distinct design language that will further separate it from its competitors. Good review.

Got one since December 2021 and I love it. Decent price (after gov. support) and a nice range for a trip or your daily commute even on a faster motorway without the need to recharge every day. Heatpump is a standard etc. Some things do annoy like the charge and preheat programming only via smartphone-app (I guess that applies for the non sat nav entertainment systems) and the fairly bad traffic sign recognition. But everything else is great. Yeah, I'd say it's a very underrated car.

What range do you get and what does a charge cost?
@mpmyprojects6687
@mpmyprojects6687 2 года назад
@@Sheltie1001 Range depends on how the car is used and how you drive. We use it as a daily commuters car with about 75% highway drive. Cold or bad weather and winter tires like we use now drain the battery fast. Therefore our average kWh/100km consumption is quite high in the winter, it's about 19. That was expected by us based on information we gathered before we got the car. We even assumed it to be higher, so we are fine with it. Using the car in the city or on roads with 70-100km/h max. lowers the average down to 12-15 kWh/100km. All this in normal or mostly eco drive mode with a moderate driving style. Sport mode is another story. Since we use our own wallbox, a charge costs us the price per kWh our energy provider charges us. Assuming we take the 19kWh/100km and our kWh price is about 25 cents, it costs us a whooping 4,75€ per 100km. Our gas car needs 11€ per 100km (average 5,5l/100km, 2€/Liter gas). We are thinking to change to a provider with an e-car fare that lowers the kWh price for the wallbox a bit but at the same time raises the fare per kWh for the rest of the house. It's a matter of calculation. Hope that helps.

I like the design, love the angles in the boot and rear lights the cleverly blacked out roof and c pillars, the mesh grill and wheel position. I think it's much better than any other Corsa that has come before it. The spec list is really impressive too, with alot of saftey kit and road recognition software aids that you would expect on much more expensive cars. I don't know about down south, but up here the Corsa is outselling the Peugeot 208 by quite a high amount. They seem to be everywhere haha.

In five years time, buyers of new cars will have considerably less choice in ICE cars, so those whom are looking for a new smallish hatchback will have cars such as this to choose from. From what Rory has said, there is no particular need for petrol or diesel lovers to hang themselves...... cars like this will be fine! Plus of course in 4 to 5 years time, the charging infrastructure, particularly on main routes, will have improved considerably..... Around 7000 new chargers were installed last year alone in the UK.....

@Ueberredet
@Ueberredet 3 года назад
Price still is a problem, especially because there isn’t really a market for used EVs that people on a tighter budget could find a car in. But what people forget is, that there are way less maintenance or repair bills, so EVs quickly make up their heigh initial costs. Anf for example in germany you can get a discount of 9k on every new EV under 40k. Because of that discount EVs are only slightly more expensive when buying. After that: cheaper to run, less maintenance and no tax. That means EVs are already cheaper in Germany.
@hellcat1988
@hellcat1988 3 года назад
@@Ueberredet Hence me calling for a $20k USD car. That's US Dollars. Many americans don't make nearly enough every year to qualify for the government tax incentives that are supposed to make these $35K+ cars affordable, so they just aren't. Add to that, they hold their value FAR better than any ice cars of their class because of their increased longevity AND scarcity, and you end up with a perfect storm of cost that is keeping the vast majority of the car buying market, the used market, almost completely excluded from the EV world.

When governments start to notice the drop in revenues from the taxes we pay for every litre/ gallon of fuel, they will be introducing taxes based on the kilometres/ miles you travel, and when cars become part of the internet of things (IOT) , cars will automatically download & transmit the distance we have travelled and we will be billed accordingly for our usage. So to say it only costs £5 to “fill her up” is true for now provided the cost of power stays consistent. What if the governments allow the electricity companies to charge you for charging your car at peak times ( after you get home from work)? All of a sudden the £5 might become £7.50 recharge...There are some unexplored variables for the cost of recharging, and the ones who will really be able to reap the savings are the ones who are the early adapter to these types of vehicles. So the ones that have the money to buy them now. Also what will the service costs for electric vehicles be like, since there will be less maintenance items to replace ( oil, filters, sparkplugs, etc) ? Will manufacturers adjust the cost of service schedules due to the cut in revenue from service work?
@petebarnesTaiChi
@petebarnesTaiChi 3 года назад
@@paulsz6194 Valid points Paul. I suspect there will be some tweaks such as governments raising the taxes on ICE fuels in real terms, one to help offset the loss of revenue and two, to partly continue the fight against climate change. When there is massive disruption in an industry there are winners and losers, manufacturers of ICE cars & components will either find other EV products to make or go under. Workers may lose jobs but this will be offset by job creation in the new industries that build EVs and components. As well as new energy products, solar panels, batteries and services etc etc. Unfortunately, even without the EV disruption, computer AI tech and robots would have destroyed many jobs in a wide range of industries. Wow, just so much change in such a short period of history, it's difficult to accurately predict outcomes.

There is absolutely no way to figure in every aspect of these things to give an accurate account of what we are doing but what scares me is many people are making a hell of a lot of money pushing green technology, I believe we need to do something but I don’t fully believe everything we are being sold.

The real cost with all cars is depreciation. So the question is how will current electric cars drop as new batteries etc arrive. Then how will petrol cars drop as electric gets popular. So many people buying new on pcp will increase depreciation too. Running cost is mainly tax. Once a lot of people go electric the tax will be applied.

@@rohinimathur6392 Carwow did a good range test between the Zoe, Corsa and some others. I would take a look at both, Zoe would be my recommendation but only the rapid charge model. The seating position is very different in both though, in the Zoe you sit really high because of the batteries so you may not like that. It’s fine for me and I’m 6’0, you get used to it and it softens a lot of the bumps :)

As a previous owner of one of these, I’d ask buyers to be careful about believing the reviews. The range is no where near what is being suggested, in winter - we’ll get ready for a really big shock. 150 miles max, and then when u pull in to try and top it up you will be there for hours, if it connects at all. Had RAC on speed dial for all the electrical faults, check any Vauxhall owners club for the issue with the keys. These are things that you tube reviews never mention but will make your life a misery.

It did look like the dampers weren’t coping with weight of the battery very well. Every time Rory hit a bump in a straight line the car’s suspension would keep oscillating for quite a while. Apart from that the handling looked reasonable but I think even though they’re more expensive the longer range NiroEV and Kona are probably better value propositions (ie cheaper per kWh of battery) and I think the Niro is more practical.

Lots of fun in sport mode on bendy roads,. B is great for decelerating if just used like dropping a gear on sporty roads. ? Did you actually check the tyre pressures that you were handed the car with with the crappy Michelin Primacy 4 to see if they were overinflated to help you get the range. ? How many miles did you actually go in the car?
