Opel Corsa in detail about fuel consumption
Opel Corsa is a comfortable and compact supermini from a German manufacturer. The fuel consumption of the Opel Corsa per 100 km makes it profitable to operate it for commercial purposes. This is one of the most popular cars in Opel sales. It appeared on the roads back in 1982, but the most popular model was released in 2006, the D generation of hatchbacks, which conquered the auto industry market.

For the entire period of production, such body types were produced:
- sedan;
- hatchback.
The car series is produced to this day and has five generations: A, B, C, D, E. In each generation of Corsa, changes were made to improve the technical characteristics of the car. But the changes concerned not only the inside of the car, but also the outside, because for all the years the model has gone through many restylings in order to always stay in trend.
Engine types
Fuel consumption on the Opel Corsa depends on the size and power of the engine, as well as on the car's gearbox. The model range of the Opel Corsa is quite wide, but generations D and E are considered the most popular, which include cars with such technical engine characteristics (gasoline and diesel):
- 1,0 l;
- 1,2 l;
- 1,4 l;
- 1,6 l.
In the CIS, the most common Opel models with an engine of 1,2, 1,4 and 1,6 liters, with a capacity of 80 to 150 horsepower and variety of gearboxes:
- Mechanics;
- machine;
- robot.
All these indicators affect the fuel consumption of the Opel Corsa.
Fuel consumption
The norms of fuel consumption on the Opel Corsa are determined primarily by cycles of movement, speed. For characterization, there are:
- urban cycle;
- mixed cycle;
- country cycle.
For the city
The real fuel consumption for Opel Corsa in the city for generation D is 6-9 liters per 100 km according to the data. At the same time, the reviews of the owners indicate that in the city the costs are less than 8 liters. This car model is optimal for city driving, as it is considered very compact and maneuverable. It can easily drive on a narrow roadway and park.
Mixed cycle
The average fuel consumption of the Opel Corsa (automatic) also does not match the promised values. The official figure in the combined cycle is 6.2 liters per hundred, but the owners claim that the car consumes about 7-8 liters, gaining maximum acceleration. According to the reviews of the owners, the real figure practically coincides with the official data. The only thing that was noticed during the operation of the car was that fuel consumption increases in the warm season.
On the road
The fuel consumption of the Opel Corsa on the highway does not differ much in the testimony of manufacturers and users.
For automatic transmissions or a robot, the fuel consumption figures are almost the same as the actual fuel consumption of the Corsa.
The diesel engine on such a car consumes significantly less fuel. Fuel consumption for Opel is reduced by at least 10 - 20% in volume equivalent.
Results
From the foregoing, we can conclude that the real fuel costs for the Opel Corsa, according to the owners, practically do not differ from the official data. Furthermore, on the track with the MT gearbox, fuel consumption is even less than the manufacturers expected - an average of 4,6 liters. There are many reviews and videos on the Internet confirming the economy of the model.
