Introducing the Vauxhall Corsa Electric
The new Vauxhall Corsa Electric brings the iconic Corsa into the future with an advanced all-electric powertrain, delivering up to 246 miles of range on a full charge. Designed for modern drivers, it offers instant torque for a smooth yet responsive drive, whether you're navigating busy city streets or cruising on the open road.
With fast charging capability, you can top up the battery quickly, ensuring minimal downtime between journeys. The Corsa Electric also features a sleek, refreshed design, the latest in-car technology, and a comfortable, driver-focused interior for an enhanced driving experience.
Offering lower running costs, zero emissions, and an engaging drive, the Corsa Electric is the perfect choice for those looking to embrace electric mobility without compromise.
Range and Performance
The first thing everybody wonders about an electric car is its range. The Corsa Electric now offers a maximum range of 246 miles, and you can make the most of this by using the two-stage regenerative braking system as well as the 'Eco' drive mode, which reduces energy consumption significantly.
Performance-wise, this is the fastest-accelerating Corsa you can buy. 0 to 62mph is dealt with in just 8.2 seconds, which is a fair bit faster than both the petrol and mild-hybrid models.
The reason for such excellent performance is that electric motors can produce 100 percent of their maximum torque at any given moment, compared with a combustion engine that needs to increase its rpm before it can generate its maximum pulling power, and even then, it only does it for a moment or two.
Charging
For the fully electric Corsa models, charging is made hassle-free with the inclusion of an 11kW on-board charger as standard. This charger allows for a full charge to be completed in around 5 hours and 15 minutes.
Additionally, the Corsa Electric supports 100kW rapid charging, enabling a typical 10 to 80 percent charge to be achieved in just 30 minutes, making it ideal for longer journeys or quick top-ups.
Home charging is also made convenient with the electric variants. When using a 7kW home wallbox, a full charge can be obtained in roughly 7 hours and 30 minutes, allowing drivers to conveniently charge their vehicles overnight, ensuring the vehicle is ready for the next day's activities.
