WillweeverseetheintriguingnewOpel/Vauxhall Corsa?

Once a twin to the departed Holden Barina, the now French-

owned, ex-GM Europe subsidiary Opel has reinvented its

German supermini for its sixth iteration as an ultra-modern,

style machine, riding on the upcoming all-new Peugeot 208’s

CMP platform. It’s even debuting in all-electric Corsa-e guise,

just to underline how hip the 37-year-old nameplate has

become. Embattled Holden won’t get it (or can’t, probably),

but PSA may eventually ... one day, perhaps. Please.
