All New Corsavan Concept to Debut at Paris

Posted on 09/21/2006 under: Concept Cars, Motor Shows, Vauxhall

It’s a van – but you’d be hard pushed to notice! Making its debut at next week’s Paris Motorshow, the Corsavan Concept takes the dynamic styling of New Corsa to an even sportier level, while also showing how the three-door car’s looks would transfer to a city van.

Finished in the same glossy Glamour Red as the Opel GT Concept shown at Geneva, Corsavan Concept features black-coloured side panels to replace the three-door Corsa’s windows without detracting from the car’s coupe-like lines.

Distinctive sporty features include red front brake callipers, smart 17-inch alloy wheels and a VXR styling pack, comprising a new front bumper, side sills and a rear spoiler.

Black leather sports seats and piano-lacquer surfaces familiar from the Corsa hatchback complete the two-seater Corsavan Concept’s interior, while a fully-lined load bay with a half-height bulkhead show how New Corsa’s design translates into a very competent panel van, with a versatile load area.

The concept car is powered by New Corsa’s 90PS 1.3-litre CDTi engine with a six-speed gearbox, making it the perfect choice for both urban and out of town use.
