Opel Corsa brings fresh new interior that will please its many Irish fans

Declan Colley finds plenty of reasons why those who have long favoured the Opel Corsa will like its latest edition

The Opel revival starts right here and right now, which is just as well because until recently the brand was in dire need of a defibrillator to get it back on its feet.

With the new Opel Corsa, the first car to be built by the German giant under a new regime after being taken over in March 2017 by the French PSA Group, which owns the Peugeot, Citroen and DS nameplates, Opel’s famous ‘Blitz’ logo faces a critical few years of rebuilding. Corsa is the first block in that reconstruction.
