Thread: Next Corsa započinje testiranje na novoj platformi

Range of downsized engines to feature in the next-generation Opel Corsa. Early chassis mules of the next-generation Opel Corsa have hit the road ahead of the superminis expected launch in two years time.
At first glance, the mule may look little more than an update of the current car, but the platform underneath is understood to be all new. The biggest tell-tale sign is how ill-fitting the rear wheels are within the bodywork.
The fifth-generation Corsa will be built on a General Motors platform rather than the underpinnings co-developed with PSA Peugeot-Citroen as part of the tie-up between the two firms. A development of the platform used for the new Opel Mokka is the most likely choice.
The Astra GTC is expected to be the main italia for the styling of the new Corsa, particularly with the more rakish three-vrata model. Expect highly efficient, turbocharged, small-capacity petrol engines between 1. 0 and 1. 4 litres from Vauxhalls new Small Gasoline Engine (SGE) range alongside a frugal 1. 6-litre diesel from Vauxhalls Mid-Size Diesel (MSD) family.
The Corsa had originally been tipped to be launched at the Frankfurt motor show in the valentines. But Vauxhalls recent onslaught of new models, plus how early in the development these mules indicate the car is still, make an early 2015 launch more likely, possibly after a otkriti at next year Paris show.
