Opel hints at the new Corsa through its IntelliLux LED matrix headlights, which will also be present on the electric version

Surely, little by little, you are getting used to the fact that 100% electric vehicles have become a sector that is very much covered by the media. This is due to their strong arrival on the market, which is being driven by the various brands turning to this segment, such as Opel. The German manufacturer is about to present the latest generation of the Corsa, a model that has enjoyed success since its beginnings and is now on the verge of embracing the latest technology, as demonstrated by its new IntelliLux LED matrix headlights and the inclusion of an electric variant among its options.

The sixth generation of the compact from Opel will be the one chosen to be equipped with a 100% electric powertrain, thus allowing its potential customers to experience all the innovations the brand has been working on during the development of this. To give us a preview, the German company has wanted to offer us an unusual teaser, in which, instead of hinting at the vehicle itself, we are offered a preamble of the technology that will equip it.

IntelliLux LED matrix headlights: one of the biggest new features of the new Corsa

Opel has wanted to ensure that its next wave of additions features the most cutting-edge technology and, to do so, will equip the no-longer-so-small Corsa with what it calls IntelliLux LED. This name refers to the latest development from the German brand, an adaptive headlight system that prevents dazzling other drivers at all times in a practical and intelligent way.

For the first time, a segment B vehicle will incorporate this type of matrix lighting since, until now, these headlights had been reserved for higher-category models. This decision by Opel is no surprise, since 20% of Astra customers and 60% of Insignia customers have added this option to their vehicle.

Another of the innovations and advances of IntelliLux LED lights is the ability to “cut out” the illuminated area for oncoming traffic and vehicles ahead. With this premise, we will avoid bothering other drivers on the road and enjoy greater visibility by lighting the optimal areas to continue our journey.

A 100% electric variant of the sixth-generation Opel Corsa

Another of the biggest innovations of the next Corsa is that it joins that more environmentally committed cause by also incorporating a 100% electric powertrain. For now, the brand has made no statements about range or performance, but we can expect a variant with more than sufficient capacity to tackle the urban world with diligence.

It will be mid-year when Opel begins accepting orders for the new 100% electric Corsa, an event that allows us to anticipate an electric future for the brand. The brand also confirms this with the arrival of the Grandland X plug-in hybrid, a version that will accompany this upcoming sixth-generation Opel Corsa.
