GM has just revealed the facelift version 2011 Opel Corsa which is now a bit more powerful and with 13 percent more fuel efficient.
The 2011 Opel Corsa Facelift is also featuring an improved chassis and steering while at the interior the level of comfort was increased.
On the Color Race, Color Edition and Color Wave 2011 Opel Corsa variants the manufacturer offers unique 17 inch wheels and body finishes and a 111 Limited Edition version that will get sold only in Europe is also on its way.
The 2011 Opel Corsa Facelift comes fitted with the standard 1.0-litre 3-cylinder unit that produces 65 HP while the most powerful version has the 1.6-litre OPC engine under the bonnet that is good for 192 HP.
The Opel Corsa continues to offer one of the roomiest and most attractive interiors in its class. The welcoming nature of its cockpit has been given a substantial make-over. The layout of the attractive, user-friendly dashboard has been retained, but the surface treatments - a clever blend of matt and high-gloss materials - have been the subject of noticeable upgrades in quality and appearance.
The variety of available finishes, fabrics, and colors helps to differentiate between the trim levels and also ensures that all customers find the perfect trim to match their wishes. Key features of the interiors are the newly decorated center consoles, with the striking patterns and colors of the instrument panel pads, available in modern color combinations that give the interior a young and fresh character.
High quality begins in the Essentia entry level model, showing a premium Punch fabric quality and a new center stack color matt chrome. In addition to the classic charcoal interior, the Enjoy trim level adds a young fresh look with Steel Blue or is available in Tabasco Orange. The lively, colorful interiors are offset with contrasts in material applications such as pearl white on the console, the steering wheel and around the door handles. The colors and instrument panel patterns created through a two-tone effect add harmony to the overall appearance of the interior. The Sport execution shows a center stack held in elegant Japan Black with galvanized air vent decorations. The Cosmo has a new grey high gloss center stack bezel with a contrasting wing insert in the instrument panel, plus beautiful embossed seat fabric to give it a very elegant and upscale feel.
The new "Touch & Connect" infotainment system is a multi-media all-round unit with navigation system that is universally connectible and easy to use. Its many upscale features include dynamic navigation, Aux-in and USB and Bluetooth connectivity. The navigation is menu-driven via a touch screen.
The Opel Corsa's new looks build on the strong foundation of its successful design. It still retains its dynamic, friendly character, but now introduces a bold, sporty face in line with Opel's new design language.
The sporty execution is achieved by re-proportioning the upper and lower grilles. The lower grille has become wider and taller, thus visually widening the car. A high degree of attention has been paid to the three-dimensional mesh of the upper grille, which reminds one of the Astra and replaces the previous horizontal bars. The proud, new Opel logo is integrated into a redesigned, larger and sculptured chromed bar, adding to the expressive appearance of the front. Thanks to these changes, the Corsa now has an even more dynamic stance.
Chiseled Opel eagle eyes have been added to the new headlamps along with the typical wing-shaped daylight signature lamp that made its debut in the Insignia and is now featured in all new Opel products. The internals of the lamp have also been refined to create a very jewel-like execution that enhances the sporty look. The new fog lamp units with integrated chrome blade complete the more expressive presence of the Opel Corsa's new face. The look is further enhanced with six new alloy wheel designs and a large, redesigned Opel logo on the tailgate. Three new exterior colors are also integrated in the palette: a delicate off-white Guacamole, an eye-catching Grasshopper green and a warm Henna.
The side profile of the new Opel Corsa retains the charm that has already established it as a market favorite. The curved, aerodynamic silhouette is equally attractive in both coup�-like three and family-oriented five-door versions. The expressive front and rear design, the well-defined upswept waistline, and the optimal body-to-wheel relationship all work together to give a sleek, dynamic impression. Just like the radiator grille, the V-shaped tailgate with the trademark center crease and the large emblem carries unmistakable Opel design elements.
The Opel Corsa's wide stance and pronounced wheel arches clearly reflect the handling agility and driving fun the bestseller offers.
The powertrain line-up consists of a wide offer of gasoline enginefrom the 1-liter 3 cylinder (48 kW/65 hp ) entry level version to theturbo charged 1.6-liter on the Corsa OPC (141 kW/192 hp). On the dieselside, different versions of the 1.3 and 1.7 CDTI motors offer outputsranging from 55 kW/75 hp to 96 kW/130 hp all with fuel consumptionunder 5 liters per 100 kilometers. The Corsa ecoFLEX 1.3 l CDTI offers exceptionally low CO2 emissions of just 98 g/km for the 3-door variant,99 g/km for the 5-door.
Opel engineers have developed the engines to give greater torque,while at the same time reducing their appetite for fuel and loweringCO2 emissions. All gasoline engines, and the new 1.7 CDTI diesel,comply with Euro 5 emissions standards.
The most popular gasoline powertrains � 1.0, 1.2 and 1.4-liter withmanual and automated Easytronic transmissions � offer combined cyclefuel consumption between just 5.0 and 5.5 l/100 km, and CO2 ratingsfrom 117 to 129 g/km with manual transmission. With an average fuelconsumption of just 5.0 l/100 km and 117 g/km CO2, the Corsa 1.0 is thecleanest of all gasoline-powered entries in its segment. The 1.4 enginecomes in two variants, with 64 kW/87 hp and 74 kW/100 hp and isavailable with full automatic transmission in its most powerfulexecution. The 1.2 and 1.4-liter Twinport engines are now fitted withdouble cam phasing to allow variable valve timing on both inlet andexhaust sides for more efficient breathing.
Other measures that improve fuel consumption for all gasolineengines include a low friction oil pump, remapping of the enginethermostat and a �shift up� indicator to help the driver change gearfor optimum fuel economy.
The 1.3 CDTI engine is also improved, giving the Corsa ecoFLEX modelexceptionally low CO2 emissions of just 98 g/km for the 3-door variant,99 g/km for the 5-door. The Corsa ecoFLEX is Opel�s lowest emittingcar, yet it is packed with 27 percent more power and 10 percent greaterfuel efficiency. A diesel particulate filter and the �shift up�indicator in the cluster are standard.
The top-of-the-line 1.7 CDTI diesel engine now offers more power andtorque � increased to 96 kW/130 hp and 300 Nm � as well as a ninepercent cut in CO2 emissions and fuel consumption, to 118 g/km and 4.5l/100km.
