Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Turbo SRi Premium: A Sporty Supermini with Everyday Practicality
The Vauxhall Corsa 1.2 Turbo SRi Premium combines modern styling, a punchy turbocharged engine, and a generous list of standard equipment, making it one of the most appealing superminis on the market. Designed for drivers who want sporty looks and sharp handling without sacrificing comfort or efficiency, the SRi Premium trim brings a blend of performance-inspired flair and premium features.
Engine & Performance
Under the bonnet sits a lively 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine, delivering 100 PS (99 bhp) and paired with either a 6-speed manual or optional automatic gearbox. It strikes a fine balance between efficiency and fun, with smooth power delivery and nippy acceleration, making it ideal for city driving and motorway cruising alike.
The turbocharged engine also offers solid fuel economy, with real-world figures often averaging around 47–52 mpg, depending on driving style.
