    If you want full retro you’ll need to add large fluffy dice hanging from the rear view mirror and a tinted sun strip (with Batch – Nicola on it 😂)

    But it’s a Stellantis Vauxhall and all the car snobs out there won’t go anywhere near it.

    I have an electric Frontera and for driving in rural Wales on rough, narrow lanes it’s brilliant.

    Vaxhall may not be a “prestige” brand and Stellantis in general suffers from a lot of calumny on the internet but their products are not all bad.

      wtf is “calumny”?

      @Ianmundo Definition: It is a noun that means either the act of spreading lies or the false statement itself.Example: “The politician faced a wave of calumny from his opponents during the election.”

      Nothing to do with ‘Car Snobs’ – more that Stellantis have a very bad reputation for making EV’s that are reliable. My nephew had a Corsa EV. It spent so much time in the garage with charging problems, he eventually managed to get Stellantis to buy it back and ended up getting a Ford (which granted was a VW underneath) which he’s had very little problems with.
      My neighbour also has a Mokka and it’s been a complete pain in the arse and unreliable.
      I used to buy Peugeot (I had a 106, 206, 306 x2 and 407SW) as I thought being in the garage every couple of weeks was normal. But when the ball joint collapsed & front wheel fell off the front of a 6 month old 407SW, I realised it’s not normal.

      Would never buy a Stellantis vehicle.

      I wouldn’t say it is ‘snobs’ there have been many issues with Stellantis EVs over recent years.

    I’d consider this if it was available in USA.

    Missing some proper hothatch style 😉
    But definitely interesting, more than enough power, but being weighter than something like Alpine A290, does it have proper go-kart feel around the corners🤔
    Great video 😃

    Of course, electric hot hatches can be fun – people who haven’t figured that out yet, usually don’t get out much. Quite a fun review, though, first Stellantis car in ages that someone has called _quite a good car._

    Imagine how cheap these will be in a couple of years time! Nice that it out accelerates the competition!

    Why have Stellantis done this so late in the Corsa /208s life ? It’ll be replaced next year ! That interior is just so dated now .

    1. @toms_garage Avatar
      @toms_garage

      I guess to compete with the upcoming VW Gti etc.

    We have a 4 year old eCorsa and barely get 150 miles from a full charge. I’ve heard similar complaints from other drivers of electric Vauxhalls, so don’t buy this sporty version unless you’re prepared to start looking for a charging station every hundred miles.

      @BenjaminCordero

      Later Corsas have larger batteries. But I’m not expecting most GSE drivers to care that much for range.

    2. @4literv6 Avatar
      @4literv6

      yup another reviewer said they got just 2.8 miles per kwh in real world use smh. So 140-150 miles of range from empty to full which means about 100 miles if you do 10-80 or so %

    I want to see the uncut Batch Onboards and off boards from croft!!! He was in a LHD and all the tracking and offboards were a RHD .

      Yes, sadly we had to use b-roll for the exterior track shots

    Michelin PEElot sport?! Not heard Pilot said like that before 😂

      It’s how Michelin say it.

      Did you just ignore the “Michelin” part. That was an intentional joke.

    Very, very sweet Corsa Batch.! The rear passenger seats and boot space are a bit cramped. Other than that awesome gutsy power and handling in a small hot hatch.

    Batch, I Rarely see you get that excited in a review so for the GSE to have excited you this much it must be good! Lol

    Looks like a decent addition to the fast Vauxhall lineage. I hope it sells well.

    Batch is normally at home in tweed and corduroy, so I was sure Nicola would get the gig. Nice to be proven wrong – really enjoyed the review.
    Agree regarding the track shots though, please show the real ones.

    Great video Batch…. I’m a child of the 80s and fast Vauxhalls were definitely my thing! Great to see Vauxhall getting back into the drivers car game – and doing it properly. I feel like the styling could do with an extra 10% personally – but kudos to Vauxhall for doing a proper job on the mechanical bits – and making the effort so late on in the cars life….
