Opel is celebrating a major milestone. One million of the current generation Corsa F, first launched in 2019, has rolled off the production line at the Zaragoza plant in Spain.

Available in petrol, hybrid and all-electric, the Corsa is a firm favourite, loved by private retail and business customers alike, and as such, demand has continued to go from strength to strength.

In the first quarter of 2025, Corsa registrations in Europe rose by 18% compared to the previous quarter. Since the launch of the very first Corsa over 4 decades ago, in 1982, almost 15 million units have been sold worldwide.

Customers have an extremely wide selection of drive options, ranging from battery-electric variants to modern hybrids with 48-volt technology and efficient combustion engines. Thus, the Corsa offers the right drivetrain for almost every usage profile and need.

The Corsa Electric now boasts a 51kWh battery with an output of 115kW (156hp), returning a range of up to 429km (WLTP) on a full charge, an increase of almost 6% or up to 24km more than before.

There are some really novel new styling features more in line with newer Opel models such as their characteristic Opel Vizor front face. Available in Ireland this July for the new 252-registration plate, a choice of three versions is offered – SC, Elegance and GS.

Retailing prices start at €26,016 with finance available from €210 per month through Opel Ireland 2.52% APR low-cost finance offer, customers will also avail of Opel’s 252 €1,000 Trade Up booster.

Meanwhile, Opel has also unveiled a newly updated Mokka that benefits from a crisper, even more contemporary style both on the outside and the inside. Available in petrol and hybrid from launch, with three trims – SC, Elegance and GS – the new compact SUV arrives on Opel dealership forecourts in Ireland this month, retailing from €29,995 plus delivery for the price-leading Mokka SC 1.2 136hp 6-speed manual.

A new Mokka Electric, with 403km range, arrives in Ireland later in 2025.

“Our Mokka is full of timeless character that makes it stands out in the crowd,” says Opel Ireland managing director, Jameas Brooks.

“We have sharpened its contemporary design, proudly placing the new Opel blitz in the centre of the Vizor front face, and we have added a range of bright new body colours. Inside, new multi-media and infotainment systems take the new Mokka to the next level.

“With the first units landing in Opel Dealer forecourts in the coming days, we are delighted to now open the new Mokka order books, and we anticipate a further strengthening of our position in the all-important B SUV segment,” he said.
