Normal weather, 100 km, 189 Wh/km consumption from vehicle data. Each row uses that country's latest stored grid row, dated in the Grid data column; rows marked "Latest available" are older than 90 days and are not current. Estimated energy cost at each country's average electricity market price · day-ahead market (Germany, France); residential retail average (United States); public charging tariffs are usually higher. CO₂ = energy × grid average carbon intensity. A dash means that value is not available.

Range by Weather Condition

Estimated range from this vehicle's listed real-world consumption and battery capacity.

Assumptions behind these numbers

  • Model assumptionUsable battery: 100% of the listed 50.0 kWh (the listed capacity may be gross or net; no correction is applied).
  • Model assumptionSpeed: consumption starts from this vehicle's listed real-world efficiency of 189 Wh/km, times a speed factor of 1.00 (1.00 = no speed adjustment).
  • Vehicle dataWeather: Hot (25 °C and above) uses this vehicle's own factor 0.95, so consumption is 189 x 1.00 / 0.95 = 199 Wh/km.
  • Vehicle dataWeather: Normal (10-25 °C) uses this vehicle's own factor 1.00, so consumption is 189 x 1.00 / 1.00 = 189 Wh/km.
  • Vehicle dataWeather: Cold (below 10 °C) uses this vehicle's own factor 0.71, so consumption is 189 x 1.00 / 0.71 = 266 Wh/km.
  • MethodRange, energy and cost all use the same consumption figure. Energy is measured at the battery; charging losses are not included.

Where these specs come from

  • UnverifiedBattery capacity 50.0 kWh: unverified. Kept from earlier site data. Opel pages could not be read; a 50 kWh gross figure appears only in search snippets.
  • UnverifiedMax DC charge speed 100 kW: unverified. Kept from earlier site data (100 kW). Opel pages could not be read; the figure appears only in search snippets.
  • SecondaryWLTP range 359 km: secondary source only. RDW lists 359 km on 15 vehicles; Opel states up to 357 km in a search snippet.
  • EstimateReal-world range 265 km is a site estimate, not a manufacturer figure.
  • DerivedDerived: listed battery capacity x 1000 / real-world range estimate = about 189 Wh/km. The range is a site estimate, so this is not a measured consumption figure.

Routes You Can Complete with This EV

⚠ Winter Range Warning

In cold weather (below 10 °C), the estimated range of this vehicle is 188 km (117 mi) (-29% vs normal conditions). Among the routes in our database, these are the longest ones where the estimate needs more charging stops in cold weather than in normal weather, or where the route data lists the route as completed in normal weather but not in cold weather, so they need careful planning in winter:

Normal weather → cold weather: Porto Alegre → Campinas: not completed in cold weather in the route data; Trabzon → Denizli 6 → 9 estimated charging stops; Shanghai → Beijing 6 → 9 estimated charging stops; Tijuana → Juarez 6 → 9 estimated charging stops; Helsingborg → Umea 6 → 9 estimated charging stops; Monterrey → Juarez: not completed in cold weather in the route data.

Real-world driving analysis

The Opel Corsa-e with its 50 kWh battery delivers a WLTP-rated 359 km, but real-world driving drops that to 265 km, a figure that shrinks further in cold conditions. With a cold-weather multiplier of 0.71, the computed range falls to 188 km, meaning a winter journey from London to Birmingham would require a careful charging stop. Hot weather is less punishing at a multiplier of 0.95, yielding 251 km. The 100 kW max DC charging speed is competitive for the segment, but its practical impact on road trips is limited by the small battery; a 10-80% charge takes around 30 minutes, adding roughly 200 km of range in that time. This makes the Corsa-e a capable urban runabout, but on longer highway trips, drivers must plan for frequent, albeit brief, charging stops, especially in winter when the effective range is cut by nearly a third.
