1,143 Vauxhall Corsa cars for sale

If you have somewhere to charge at home, the Corsa-e is well worth a look if you’re not planning on too many longer trips though. Depreciation rates for electric cars means a fairly low-mileage Corsa-e can be nearly as affordable as a petrol model, in contrast to their large new price difference.

Used Vauxhall Corsa fuel economy and performance

• Vauxhall Corsa 1.2-litre 75 petrol: With a non-turbocharged 1.2-litre petrol engine the Corsa develops a modest 75PS, though performance is still reasonable with a 12.4-second 0-62mph time. It’s more frugal than other Corsas though, with a combined 53.3mpg. A five-speed manual gearbox is standard.
• Vauxhall Corsa 1.2-litre 100 turbo petrol: The same engine with a turbocharger attached makes 100PS, and cuts the 0-62mph time to 9.3 seconds. Economy is nearly as good as the 75PS car, at 52.3mpg, while a six-speed manual and an automatic gearbox are both available.
• Vauxhall Corsa 1.2-litre 130 turbo petrol: Another variant of the 1.2-litre engine, the top model makes 130PS. Performance improves again with an 8.2-second 0-62mph time (courtesy also of a standard eight-speed automatic gearbox), while combined economy is 50.4mpg.
• Vauxhall Corsa 1.5-litre 102 diesel: You’ll find this four-cylinder, 1.5-litre turbodiesel in some earlier Corsas, as it hasn’t been sold for a few years now. It develops 102PS, and has a 9.6-second 0-62mph time. Claimed economy is up to 70.6mpg.
• Vauxhall Corsa-e: The electric Corsa is the most powerful in the range, with 136PS, and has a claimed 0-62mph of 8.9 seconds (more recent cars make 156PS and drop that to 7.7 seconds). Earlier models offer a claimed 205 miles on a charge, while later 50kWh cars can do up to 220 miles.

What used Vauxhall Corsa trim levels are available?

We’ve focused on post-2022 models below, after Vauxhall simplified the Corsa’s trim lineup - it was a bit of a sprawling beast before, starting in SE trim and topping out in Ultimate, with several spin-offs such as Premium and Nav-badged models, which received heated seats and navigation respectively. In the current range, the Corsa-e is available in both GS and Ultimate spec as detailed below. A recent facelift in 2024 may result in further changes not covered here.

• The Vauxhall Corsa Design gets a pretty decent level of equipment for an entry-level car, with features like a touchscreen, air conditioning, and alloy wheels all standard.
• The Vauxhall Corsa GS is the current mid-range model, getting a contrasting black roof, sports-style front seats, automatic climate control, and rear parking sensors, among other features.
• The Vauxhall Corsa Ultimate tops the range and gets a level of equipment to suit - the latest cars come with matrix LED headlights, an electric driver’s seat with a massage function, and more.

Used Vauxhall Corsa dimensions and boot size

The Vauxhall Corsa’s exterior dimensions are:

Used Vauxhall Corsa road tax

The best way to dodge HMRC with a Corsa is to get the all-electric Corsa-e, which at the time of writing is completely free to tax thanks to its zero tailpipe emissions status. For the rest of the range, you’ll pay a flat figure of £190 per year across the board, for the 2024/2025 tax year.

How much is it to insure a Vauxhall Corsa?

At the bottom of the range the Corsa isn’t quite as cheap to insure as some rivals, with no pared-back, super-cheap entry-level model. The range spans groups 10-26, with pre-2022 SE models with the 75PS 1.2 at the bottom end of that, and an Ultimate with the 130PS turbo engine at the top. The Corsa-e can be found in groups 24-26, higher than the group 14-25 span of the Renault Zoe.
