Vauxhall Viva

Slotting into the Vauxhall range below the Corsa supermini, is the Griffin’s new Hyundai i10 and Volkswagen UP! city car rival, the Vauxhall Viva.

Despite prices starting at £7,995, Vauxhall claim the new Viva will offer many big car features as standard, such as ESP and traction control.

Just two trims will be available, both powered by a 75PS non-turbo version of the 1.0-litre three-cylinder that was launched in the Corsa.

Outside, the Viva looks every bit the scaled down Corsa – the design highlight being the sharp creases down the sides. Inside, the Viva certainly doesn’t feel built to a price, the dashboard is particularly stylish.

The original Viva was a Vauxhall legend – will the new one be able to eclipse that popularity?
