Vauxhall Corsavan 1.3 CTDi review

The load space in the Corsavan is well over 900 litres

So exactly what’s on offer with the new model?

Totally new exterior looks for starters. The “face” is clearly recognisable thanks to its ‘eagle eye’-shaped headlights, incorporating Vauxhall’s signature ‘wing’ LED daytime running lights and the low sporty trapezoidal grille, with a chrome bar supporting the Vauxhall Griffin.

The rear view of the Corsavan is also completely new. Horizontal split tail lights help widen the van and flow through to the rear shoulders, creating a more muscular stance.

The cab is new too. Ergonomics have been improved, with the new seats offering increased support and durability. In addition, reduced levels of noise, harshness and vibration further improve the driving experience.

In the cargo area, the payload has been increased to a class-leading 571kg, while load volume remains at 920 litres. On the plus side, the load area features a standard wipe clean non-slip floor and four load-lashing eyes, but on the downside – unlike in the rival hi-cubers – loads can’t be slid in and out as there is a large lip under the tailgate.

Two trim levels are available – base and Sportive.

All models feature electronic power steering which boosts power assistance for easier parking, but has been further optimised for a more positive and direct feel. On the safety front, six front airbags come as standard, along with the latest generation ESP Plus.
