Value rating:

Well equipped and it appears to be well built; likely to be popular, but scarse on the second-hand market now.
Reliability rating:

Too new for problems to emerge, previous models were generally reliable.
Driving rating:

Steering is much improved, light but is let down by a lack of feel; also loads up when parking. The handling is pretty good, althougth there is still too much body roll.

Comfort rating:

Even more roomy than the previous generation model, rear space at a premium on three-door models; five-door models are better suited to family use; ride comfort is much improved, only big potholes unsettle the Corsa
Safety rating:
star iconstar iconstar iconstar iconstar icon
The Corsa has a strong body structure, with a driver's airbag and active headrests as standard. While side and passenger airbags are available in a safety pack on Comfort, Elegance, SXi, SRi models. This car should improve on the previous models NCAP score of two stars out of four.
Security rating:
