Raw, raucous and racy. Vauxhall’s VXR models are all of these. There’s no doubt the latest Corsa will turn heads, as the VXR model is striking from every angle. With more scoops and vents than any rival, it is unashamedly bold. However, it’s not all for show, as the bodywork was developed in a wind tunnel and the neat rear diffuser really does improve high-speed stability. Large alloys, plus a high-level roof spoiler and distinctive VXR branding leave you in no doubt as to the origin of the car. In fact, Vauxhall is fast creating an immediately recognisable look for its hottest models, something no other manufacturer can match.
Vauxhall claims a 0-60mph time of 6.8 seconds, and with the turbo kicking in from low revs and an overboost giving extra pulling power under full throttle, it never feels slow.
