Range boost for Vauxhall Corsa Electric

Vauxhall has improved the driving range of the Corsa Electric and introduced a new vehicle-to-load function.

The Corsa Electric Long Range is now capable of 266 miles (WLTP), an improvement of 14 miles, thanks to new battery chemistry and other powertrain optimisations.

Vauxhall is also introducing Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) functionality for the first time on the Corsa Electric, exclusively available on the Long Range variant. This feature allows drivers to power external devices up to 3.6kW and 16A, such as power tools or camping equipment directly from the car's battery.

The Corsa Long Range uses a 51kWh battery and a 156PS motor. The Corsa Electric is also available with a 50kWh battery and a 136PS motor.

Prices start at £27,505 for the smaller battery and £28,900 for the Long Range.

Throughout its life, the Corsa Electric has received regular improvements to its range. The original version was first unveiled in August 2019 with a maximum range of 205 miles. In July 2023, the new Corsa facelift was unveiled featuring a range of 246 miles. Now, Corsa Electric features a maximum range of 266 miles (WLTP).
