The Corsa has been on sale since the early 1980s originally manufactured by Opel in Europe.
Vauxhall had the same first-generation model on sale but they sold it as the Nova during the 1980s and early-1990s.
In 1993 the second-generation Corsa was introduced by Opel with many other General Motors brands also releasing it under their own name.
Vauxhall added it to their lineup to replace the Nova as well as Chevrolet who called it the Classic/Sail in some regions, Holden of Australia named it the Barina.
A year after, the Tigra was launched and used the Corsa as its platform - this car was a sport compact that later featured a power-reclining roof.
From then on the Corsa saw fierce competition from other superminis such as the Ford Fiesta and Volkswagen Golf.
Since then the car has been revised constantly and now this 2018 model is a late example of the E-generation that was brought in during 2014.
2018 saw the dropping of the 1.2-liter engine option and the announcement of the electric version that will be known as the Corsa-e due in the next year.
You can read about all of the features available in this 2018 model in the official owner's manual, a copy of which is included on this page.
In 2018 the van version of the Opel/Vauxhall Corsa was dropped after serving since the early 1980s when the original car was introduced.
