We’ve only seen spy shots of Vauxhall’s new, seventh-generation family hatch so far, but they show a departure from the soft curves of the current model, with a lower and wider appearance. Under the bonnet, expect the new 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol turbo from the Corsa to be fitted, to rival Ford’s EcoBoost units. More efficient 1.6 petrols and diesels should appear too, as well as the Intellilink smartphone connection. A three-door and estate will feature later.
