Images of a Ford Fiesta ST-rivalling Opel Corsa OPC have been leaked. Seen here badged as a Vauxhall for the UK market, the car will make its debut at the Geneva motor show next month.
Under the hood is likely to be the the same 1,6 turbopetrol that powers the current gen. Corsa OPC. The unit is currently good for 141 kW and266 N.m.. It will be mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox, giving it a 0-100km/h time arpund 6,5 seconds. Expect too an optional limited-slip differential that featured on the limited edition Corsa OPC Nurburgring.
Most notable on the new car is the large front air intake, rear spoiler, bodykit and large alloy wheels. Inside, new Recaro bucket seats leave little doubt to its performance pretentions.
