Opel Corsa OPC could have 147 kW

Only a couple weeks after the official announcement of the new Opel Corsa, rumours are beginning to do the rounds about the performance minded OPC.

Corsa OPC potential output

The top of the range OPC is likely to make use of the 1.6-litre turbo the company is already employing in the current Corsa OPC and Corsa OPC Nurburgring Edition. It’s expected to be tuned a little different for the new generation Corsa, managing around 147 kW and 300 Nm of torque.

No doubt the new Corsa OPC will get an added aggressive body kit to go with the increased power output. Suspension will also get a tweak to make it a bit stiffer and sportier.

It’s expected that we should see the Corsa OPC early next year, possibly as soon as the Geneva motor show.
