Why up to 100,000 Vauxhall Corsas get sold each year

The Vauxhall Corsa is by far the most popular Vauxhall car sold each year and is frequently the second most sold car every single year out of all car models. So let's take a look at the unsurprising reasons why the nation loves this car so much.

Pricing

With the starting price as £9745, the Vauxhall Corsa comes in cheaper than its standard competitors, notably the Ford Fiesta which is £600 more expensive.

Plenty of room

One of the biggest complaints about the Corsa's rivals is a lack of space in the back of the car. Even though 3 seats may be available, it's rare that you'll actually be able to comfortably fit 3 adults. This standout feature of the Corsa alone appeals to thousands of car buyers; having practical room to fit 3 grown adults without their knees in their face is a big selling point.

Adaptable steering

A cool feature of the Corsa is the "City" button; this lightens up the steering when driving around urban areas. It makes the experience of driving easier and more enjoyable and this seemingly small perk is in fact quite appealing.

Plenty as standard

Even though the Corsa base model is cheaper than its competitors, you still don't need to pay lots for optional extras and, in fact, it comes with a fair few perks as standard. This includes cruise control, automatic lights and wipers and Bluetooth to name a few.

Great engines

Boasting great economy as well as being good for the environment with low CO2 emissions, the 1.0-litre petrol engine is small yet punchy.

Up to 100,000 Corsas are sold every year, and it's not surprising with the perks they offer and what they come equipped with.
