Vauxhall has revealed the special edition Corsa Electric #YES, offering sporty styling and an exclusive Record Red paint finish with a fully electric 136PS powertrain. The Corsa Electric YES Edition is priced at £26,895, lowering the entry-point to the Corsa Electric line-up by £5,550.
Fresh, exciting, to the point – this is how Vauxhall has been advertising the New Corsa. For anyone who is looking for simple, exciting and electric mobility, there can only be one answer: “Yes, of Corsa!” The extraordinary cross-media campaign is now being brought to life with the new Corsa Electric YES Edition.
This special edition of Britain’s best-selling supermini for the past three years will feature eye-catching styling, from the GS version, with exclusive Record Red paint and a contrasting black roof. The Corsa Electric YES Edition is available with a fully electric 136PS powertrain for £26,895 – a saving of £5,550 compared to a Corsa Electric Design 136PS.
James Taylor, Managing Director, Vauxhall, said: “With the Corsa Electric YES Edition, we are bringing our successful ‘Yes, of Corsa’ campaign to the roads, offering an accessible new version of Corsa Electric with sporty GS styling. Vauxhall is committed to democratising access to electric vehicles, by offering an electric version of every car and van we offer by the end of this year and through initiatives like our Electric Streets of Britain campaign to improve the UK’s on-street residential charging infrastructure.”
Corsa Electric YES Edition impresses at first glance. At the front, it proudly bears the characteristic Vauxhall Vizor brand face with a black Griffin logo. At the rear, the Corsa name is confidently displayed in black lettering, while the #YES emblem, a nod to the advertising campaign, is clearly visible in the interior. The exclusive Record Red paintwork underlines the bold appearance. In stark contrast are the black roof, the black exterior mirror housings and the 16-inch black alloy wheels. In addition to Record Red, customers can also choose their YES Edition in Arctic White, Carbon Black or Graphic Grey.
The clear contrasts continue inside: the driver and front passenger enjoy sports-style front seats with red accents. Corsa Electric YES Edition customers are well connected with Vauxhall’s multimedia infotainment system, which includes a 10-inch touchscreen that is with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and wireless smartphone integration, alongside a seven-inch digital instrument cluster and Vauxhall Connect.
YES Edition models also feature automatic lights and wipers, climate control, LED headlights and daytime running lights, high beam assist, keyless entry and start, rear parking sensors, electric front and rear windows as well an array of driver-assistance tech. This includes lane departure warning with lane keep assist, speed sign recognition, driver drowsiness alert, cruise control with speed limiter and automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection.
Corsa Electric YES Edition ensures plenty of driving fun thanks to its 136hp (100kW) electric motor and 260Nm of torque. With its 50kWh battery, it can cover up to 221 miles (WLTP) on a single charge and can be re-charged from 0-80% in just 30 minutes from a 100kW rapid charger.
Thanks to Vauxhall’s new partnership with leading supermarket Tesco, new Vauxhall electric vehicle customers also benefit from one year’s free charging credit at stores across the country.*
The Corsa Electric YES Edition will be sold exclusively online, with orders set to open from 17 April.
