In-game description[]
- The Opel Corsa was sold as the Vauxhall Corsa in the UK.
The Corsa, Opel's entry-level vehicle, was marketed under the name Vita in Japan starting in 1995, and then underwent a full model change in 2001. While the new Vita, based on the third-generation Corsa, featured styling similar to the second-gen model, it was different by reshaped headlights and grille that gave it family resemblance to the Opel Astra and Vectra at the time. The car had a Japanese feel to it, no coincidence considering it was penned by Japanese designer Hideo Kodama. The Corsa's wheelbase increased from 96.2 inches to 98.0 inches, largely to increase space inside the cabin.
A number of engines could be found under the Corsa's hood. A 74 HP 1.2-liter and 89 HP 1.4-liter inline-3s served as the base engine while a 123 HP 1.8-liter inline-4 and a 1.7-liter diesel rounded out the top end. They came mated to a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic gearbox. A two pedal semi-automatic called "Easytronic" was available as a special option.
The car's suspension consisted of MacPherson struts up front and trailing arm at the rear. This allowed the car to be extremely agile, able to navigate through traffic and winding roads proficiently. Despite its somewhat cute overall nature, the Corsa held up its own on the road, with some people modifying it with aftermarket parts, but above all it represented a good value for economy-minded buyers.

Trivia[]
- This car can be found inside the game files of Gran Turismo Concept, implying that at some point during the development of the game, the car would have made an appearance as a playable vehicle. Although this car ended up being unused, it is still accessible through the use of cheat devices, along with its Opel counterpart.
- For some reason, in GT4, the vehicle banner used for the Opel Model is not shared with this car unlike the other Opel and Vauxhall cars (except for the Opel Speedsters and Vauxhall VX220s), instead it has its own vehicle banner with a different font and the additional "Comfort" text not used on the Opel Vehicle Banner version.
