Just weeks after debuting in the Astra, the latest generation IntelliLink infotainment system is now available on the Corsa as standard (excluding Sting and Sting R models). R4.0 IntelliLink easily integrates smartphone functions via Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and is compatible with devices from Android 5.0 Lollipop and Apple iOS 7.1 (from iPhone 5).

In addition, OnStar now becomes standard on SE, Limited, Black Edition, Red Edition and VXR Corsa models, offering personal connectivity, service assistant and integrated 4G/LTE architecture to turn the Corsa into a Wi-Fi Hotspot and bring a number of additional services.

“We do not just offer drivers of larger cars the opportunity of enjoying the latest connectivity and infotainment technology. We are making it available across our entire product portfolio with very attractive offerings,” said Simon Oldfield, Vauxhall’s sales and marketing director. “The new R4.0 IntelliLink system with smartphone integration available for the Corsa is the perfect example. This system along with OnStar enables fast, stable and extensive internet access for every Corsa occupant.”

OnStar services and Wi-Fi are free for the first year. A second year of OnStar services, including roadside assistance, but excluding Wi-Fi is available for £79.
