About the Vauxhall Corsa Electric
The Vauxhall Corsa Electric (sold as the Opel Corsa-e in continental Europe and Australia) has become one of the UK's most popular small electric cars. Built on Stellantis's e-CMP platform, it offers a familiar supermini package with zero-emission running. The original 50 kWh battery delivered around 209 miles of WLTP range, and a 2024 facelift brought a slightly larger 50.8 kWh pack with improved efficiency, pushing the figure to 222 miles.
Day-to-day, the Corsa Electric is pleasant to drive — light steering, a smooth powertrain, and a comfortable ride suit urban and suburban duties perfectly. It is not the most exciting small EV to drive, but it is one of the most approachable. The interior is tidy if not premium, with a 10-inch touchscreen and digital instrument cluster.
DC charging at up to 100 kW means a 10–80% top-up takes around 30 minutes, and a 7 kW home charge completes overnight. It competes with the Renault Zoe, Fiat 500 Electric, and MG4, offering a reassuringly conventional alternative to flashier rivals. For buyers who simply want an EV that looks, feels, and drives like a normal car, the Corsa Electric delivers.
What the press thinks
Reviewers appreciate the Corsa Electric for being an easy, no-drama small EV. It is praised for its accessibility and low running costs but criticised for a relatively small boot, modest range compared to newer rivals, and a somewhat uninspiring driving experience.
