Vauxhall Corsa Electric Named ‘Best Electric Small Car’

In a testament to its engineering excellence and consumer appeal, the Vauxhall Corsa Electric has been awarded the prestigious title of ‘Best Electric Small Car’ by Diesel&EcoCar Magazine in the 2024 EcoCar Electrified Top 50 awards. This accolade highlights the Corsa Electric’s leading position in the rapidly growing electric vehicle market, particularly within the supermini segment.

Award-Winning Performance and Value

The EcoCar Electrified Top 50 awards, now in their third year, spotlight the finest electric, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles available today. The judges lauded the Corsa Electric for its efficient electric powertrains and exceptional value for money, making it one of the UK’s most accessible electric vehicles.

Ian Robertson, Editor at Diesel&EcoCar Magazine, remarked: “The Corsa is our Best Electric Small Car for 2024, because not only was it improved by a facelift that ushered in a new look, but it also gained an updated Stellantis set of goodies. This includes a new 154bhp electric motor and 51kWh battery, boosting range to 248 miles. For those happy with a 221-mile range, the Corsa Electric is offered in a YES Edition with a bargain £26,895 price tag (and cheap finance deals) that makes it one of the most easily attainable electric vehicles on sale in the UK today. But this is no stripped-out base model, it’s packed to the gills with equipment and fantastic value for money.”

Market Leadership and Consumer Appeal

Vauxhall’s strategic pricing and innovative financing options have played a significant role in the Corsa Electric’s market success. James Taylor, Managing Director at Vauxhall, emphasized the vehicle’s popularity: “The Corsa Electric is the UK’s favourite electric supermini, topping the sales charts in 2023 and the year to date. With the launch of the new YES Edition, the Corsa Electric now offers better value than ever before, with a lower monthly cost than the equivalent petrol model – helping more of Britain make the switch to electric.”

The Corsa Electric YES Edition, priced at £26,895, has lowered the entry point to the Corsa Electric line-up by £5,550. The five-year PCP offer, available from just £251 per month, is £23 per month less than the equivalent petrol variant, further enhancing its appeal.

Technical Excellence and Design

The YES Edition boasts a 136PS electric motor and a 50kWh battery, delivering a range of up to 221 miles (WLTP). It can be re-charged from 0-80% in just 30 minutes using a 100kW rapid charger. This edition features eye-catching styling from the GS version, including a contrasting black roof and a choice of paint colours, such as the exclusive Record Red at no extra cost. Inside, the sports-style front seats with red accents and signature YES Edition badging enhance the driving experience.

For those seeking greater range and power, the Corsa Electric Long Range is an attractive option. Equipped with a next-generation 51kWh battery and a 115kW (156 PS) motor, this model achieves 0-62mph in 8.2 seconds and offers a potential range of 248 miles (WLTP). Available in GS and Ultimate trims, it provides a compelling blend of performance and efficiency suitable for both short commutes and longer journeys.

Conclusion

The Vauxhall Corsa Electric’s recognition as the ‘Best Electric Small Car’ underscores its exceptional blend of efficiency, affordability, and advanced features. As electric vehicles continue to gain traction, the Corsa Electric stands out as a leading choice for consumers seeking an eco-friendly, high-performance supermini that does not compromise on style or value. This accolade not only celebrates Vauxhall’s engineering prowess but also its commitment to making electric vehicles more accessible to a broader audience.
