Vauxhall today unveiled the all-new, redesigned 2015 Corsa hatchback, which is set to make its official debut at the Paris Motor Show in October. The Corsa is typically Vauxhall’s best-selling model and is the second most popular nameplate across Europe after 32 years of production with over 12 million units sold, an average of 370,000 cars each year.
To both Opel and Vauxhall the Corsa is an important model, if not the most important. Crucial to the car’s success is its appearance, and this new model has new sheet metal everywhere you look. The car incorporates British designer Mark Adams’ sculptural design style, borrowing small hints and body lines from the Monza Concept.
A notable design feature on the 2015 Corsa is the front fascia, which is similar to the Adam’s and incorporates an all-new, uniquely styled headlight design. The side of the car is more dramatically styled, with deeper body lines and more pronounced curves and creases. Out back, a redesigned rear hatch is flanked by a set of all-new taillights.
We don’t doubt the new Corsa is better in virtually every aspect over the outgoing model, but it’s up to the consumer to decide whether or not it has improved in the looks department. So voice your opinion and vote on whether you think the new Corsa is Hot or Not.
Comments
GM and Opel made ​​a big mistake to call this a completely new model. This policy can be painfully GM OPEL and revenge. Everywhere I read where Opel has fans disappointed. Design would become as cheaply and simply much better results. Many do not realize what has happened. The current three-door is much different five doors only and provides a fascinating field.
CORSA E is definitely better than the model paregune but …… The same could be said about the FL Insignia brand new model.
The design elements are a lot of things that do not understand how the designers have done so.
Rear lights are old. Could have been even better than the LED light on the rear lights.
CORSA E Ku ikaua it now has to compete with other brands. As long as it was prepared and tested.
Sometimes it makes the GM and Opel ANGER.
GM and Opel would be nominated again this model updates would be a better story, however, has nothing to do anymore. GM and Opel deceive themselves as well call it a totally new. I have a feeling that the profits will not come as such a policy continued. People are not stupid and nor OPEL fans are very dedicated and knowledgeable car in the world.
This machine should have long been marketed FL. if at all,
NOT! Had this facelifted version come out years ago, maybe. Not a car designed for 2015. However many pictures of it I see, and the videos on youtube with Mark Adams and WHATCAR? I see the Corsa D. Never liked the side view of the Corsa D, 3 or 5 doors. The 3 door verison was an evolution of the Corsa C, same shaped windows. Now All these years later we still have the same poor visibility rear side windows. I like Vauxhall/opel, I loved the Corsa D when it launched, it was right for the time and modern. This however much work has been done is just a facelift of last decades car as I suspected it would be. Shame, wanted to love it, would have considered one. However I don’t like it and reading comments on other sites I don’t seem to be alone. Popular consensus is disappointment.
They should quickly show the three-door version and a spoiler to improve the situation as soon as possible, and the OPC. OPEL moves very slowly, and if a car in the world off the ice time is very difficult. E CORSA many details are already known in former times. A lot of things you do not like, however, some write here, too. Air Supply did not like it. Buttons are decent but the air supply is so massive and immediately starts out as different, inexpensive detail. 5-door rear side window, the new solution is still very ugly and cheaply resolved. The current three-door rear end is different and very cool.
I do not see a reason why to buy a Corsa email. If it only offer a very low-cost money that you will still try to make a profit when buying at all. Anyway, very sorry. When can you expect from a brand new Corsa. It’s just not normal. After several years should be CORSA E facelift.
Do not accept anything here OPEL. OPEL is behind the times by using their policy.
U.S. and the EU can not cooperate with the car especially in the construction industry. Very different perceptions and world.
VAG preserved in its policy making jealous. Earning a lot of money and is rich and can provide decent stuff. SEAT, SKODA, VW conquer the whole world in its various models. American golf and focus. GM does not offer the Astra OPC in America, and the money does not come. FIAT offers single market cool FIAT 500th GM will review how the top Fiat 500 earns the money. Ford Transit commercials in America. Opel Vivaro-monavo in America.
I really do not understand a lot of things GM. Nasty look at the GM and Opel’s cooperation. GM OPEL and binds only to some kind of contract, and that is all. in fact, it is very different from one another, and do not care at all doings. Main Line to make a profit, and only to be sold in any of the debris. Americans do not really know anything at Opel in Europe is not known very well, and nothing. VAG is preserved and canned EU co-operation is working perfectly and apkuvad their products all over the world. As early as one and the same model totally different from the EU and the U.S.
Corsa E is like 70 years old woman has made a plastic surgery and became still uglier people who make a lot of beauty operations will become uglier.
Perfect analogy. I’m a Corsa owner. Loved the car when first launched, have the face lifted version which is one of the few cars to improve the looks without altering the car too much. However after 8 years it is showing its age. Was eager to see the “new” Corsa, wanted to love it like I did back in 2006. However I don’t, it looks like an uglier, trying to be more modern version of my current Corsa. Peugeot were able to use the 207 platform to create the attractive and totally different looking 208, So why couldn’t Opel do the same? However many times I look at it, all I see is a tarted up version of the previous generation. It’s not a Corsa E to me. It’s more a Corsa D and a half.

Stunning – 10 out of 10 to Mark Adams and his team. The start of an evolutionary design language for Vauxhall / Opel with strong family links to the Adam and also the Monza Concept. The interior is superb as well – considering the old Vauxhall Corsa D was the second best selling car in the UK last month this should shoot it to the top spot.
The poll numbers agree with me at 83.87% hot, hot, hot. (Even though at this time it is only 26 votes). If the trend continues even better I say. And add that Buick should get it to help bring down the median buyer age thing. 🙂
GM workers will say only that hot. resonance is not so bad when I heard of this before a model. On the Internet, people are still very frustrated and angry.
the worst part is that the Opel fans are very disappointed and angry that know the history of Opel, and is very knowledgeable about things.
I’ll show it to your grandmother, and he can not understand anything at all, and do not distinguish between cars
I don’t work for Vauxhall although I do own the worlds largest Vauxhall enthusiast site, but it is not the issue. You don’t like the new Corsa – that’s fine, you are entitled to your opinion but don’t try and make excuses because you are completely outnumbered just accept that most people like it.
“People like it” doesn’t reflect what I read in the comments…This design is very controversial…
Some People like but a lot of People don’t.
I think it’s OK but far away from being as superior as you expressed it.
When it comes to design Opel made a very good job in the last years but the exterior of this car is a little disapointing.
But to be honest the current Corsa also can’t offer the best design and sells very well.
Beside that the interior is great and at least at the same level as the current Polo, so it has one of the best if not the best interior in this class.
The vote is 2 to 1 in favour of the car on this forum & in the UK the press comments have been very good & positive, I don’t see anything controversial about it, if that were the case then the Adam would be viewed as controversial as well, the only thing I have against the Adam is the daft name but people have got used to it now – I think the Corsa E will remain one of the best selling cars – in the UK anyway. As far as the VW Polo goes the exterior design is generic Volkswagon = bland!
That poll will please GM/OPEL/VAUXHALL. Just don’t let them read any reader comments on all the other impartial car internet sites, they’re the complete opposite of “Hot” . Roll on the thumbs down for saying this. Should know better having an opinion that’s not complimentary on this site.
Totally not creepy…
