The new Corsa-e promises state-of-the-art electric mobility.<\/p><\/div>\n

Opel’s new Corsa-e will go on sale next March writes Geraldine Herbert<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

1)<\/strong> Opel’s first all-electric model, the Corsa-e, has been officially unveiled in Frankfurt.<\/p>\n

2)<\/strong> Due here in March 2020 prices are expected to start from around \u20ac25,000 for the base model, a price that will make sense to many buyers.<\/p>\n

3)<\/strong> \u00a0With impressive technology, smart looks and a new interior it will also be offered with a choice of a petrol or diesel engine at the end of the year.<\/p>\n

4)<\/strong> Outside the look is edgy and radically different to the current Corsa while inside, creature comforts abound including a 10in colour touchscreen with an infotainment system compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. There is also a load of impressive safety stuff including adaptive speed control, lane-keep assist, radar-based emergency braking system, driver drowsiness alert.<\/p>\n

5)<\/strong> The Corsa-e has lots of clever tricks up its sleeve including a quoted range of 330 Km and three drive modes \u2013 Normal, Sport and Eco \u2013 and comes with a regenerative braking system. Plus the 50kW battery can be fast charged to up to 80% of its capacity in 30 minutes and is covered by an eight-year warranty.<\/p>\n

6)<\/strong> The German car maker will offer an electric or electrified version of every model in its line-up by 2024. Four electrified models will go on sale by the end of 2020, a Grandland PHEV will be available while the new Mokka X SUV and Vivaro van will feature battery electric versions.<\/p>\n

7)<\/strong> In the meantime, we can expect to see a lot more small electric cars. \u00a0As the EU continues to impose tougher CO2 emission levels on car markers from next year the industry must reduce its fleet average to 95 grams per kilometre. As smaller cars are proving the most difficult to reduce emissions from, an electric option is the only way many of them will survive. So the good news for consumers is that a host of Evs will follow in the footsteps of this new breed of small car.<\/p>\n
