With a very demanding for effective legislation, the European Union starts from 2011 Euro 5, which bars vehicles with emission levels of CO2 above 180 g / km. The approach of the law is forcing local carmakers to adapt all their cars to the new rule. The same goes for sports cars, the largest polluters. This applies to the line of the 2011 Opel Corsa OPC, which was "cleaner" without losing its performance.

According to the German division of General Motors, the Corsa OPC 2011 is up 7.6% more efficient in fuel consumption and makes 9.5% less carbon dioxide in the air over the previous model. The company also claims that the new model has average fuel consumption 13.3 km / l (gasoline) and emits around 172 g / km of CO2. Even revised, turbocharged 1.6-liter engine in the series maintained its 192 bhp and 23.4 Nm of torque (with overboost the number rises to 27 Nm).

Available only in the Old Continent option with manual gearbox, 6 gears, the Corsa OPC, according to data from Opel, meets the test 0-100 km / h in 7S2 and continues until it reaches a top speed of 225
