From the moment you set eyes on the SRi Nav Premium, it’s clear this isn’t your ordinary hatchback. The sporty styling cues, sharp lines, gloss accents, and bold color/trim options give it an aggressive, youthful edge. Five doors, hatch-practicality, but a design that screams fun rather than just utility. It hints at performance, even before you turn the key. Step inside and you get a feeling that Vauxhall wanted to inject a dose of premium feel into this class. Sports seats, a well-laid-out cockpit, decent materials (especially in visible areas), and modern tech make it feel more expensive than its price tag suggests. Engine, Performance & Driving Feel Engine / Power: 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo petrol producing about 100 bhp (100 PS). Torque: around 205 Nm – good punch, especially from low to mid revs. Acceleration & Top Speed: 0-62 mph in around 9.3 seconds and a top speed roughly 121 mph. What this means in practice: while the Corsa isn’t a rocket, it feels lively. In town, the turbo boost gives you quick responses, overtakes are manageable, and motorway cruising is comfortable. The manual gearbox gives you good control, and you can wring out fun from this size of car if you work the revs. The steering feels sharp, responsive, and with the SRi’s sport-tuned touches, corners feel more engaging than you might expect in a supermini. Fuel Economy, Efficiency & Running Costs This is one of the big strengths: Official combined mpg is up around 67.3 mpg on certain cycles. Urban vs extra-urban splits are decent: expect lower in town, much better on highway / open road work. Reports suggest ~54 mpg in urban conditions, pushing much higher when cruising. CO? emissions are around 96 g/km for many models, which helps with tax, insurance, and environmental zones.
