Opel announces the imminent arrival of a 100% electric Corsa GSE, the high-end sporty version of its flagship city car.
The German manufacturer Opel continues to expand its electrified sports range with the announcement of the upcoming Opel Corsa GSE, expected to be available for order during the year. This high-performance version will enhance the 100% electric GSE family, already inaugurated by the Opel Mokka GSE.
With this new Corsa GSE, Opel aims to combine the popular positioning of its city car with an offer focused on electric performance. A best-seller for the brand and consistently leading sales in its segment in Germany in recent years, the Corsa is a strategic pillar for the Rüsselsheim-based manufacturer. This sporty version will be based on the current generation of the model.
GSE is the new GTI
The GSE label, now exclusively associated with 100% electric models, embodies Opel’s sporty vision in the era of electromobility. Like the Mokka GSE, the Corsa GSE will adopt specific design elements intended to affirm its dynamic identity: differentiated presentation, exclusive stylistic details, and a sportier atmosphere inside.
On a technical level, Opel promises increased performance and sharpened road behavior, while maintaining an electric powertrain with zero local CO₂ emissions. For reference, the Mokka GSE has a combined consumption of 18.5 kWh/100 km (WLTP) with 0 g/km of CO₂, bearing an A label.
