Clubsport technical data | 15
Engine transmission and chassis improvements. This new Clubsport model takes Corsa VXR performance to the limit. Running on a diet
of 98 octane fuel, a revised turbocharger and Remus sports exhaust with reduced back pressure have helped push performance to a whole
new level. The ABS traction control and electronic stability programme have all been recalibrated to accommodate the Clubsport’s more
potent set up. A Drexler multi-plate limited-slip differential helps tame the power during cornering or sudden changes in road surface while a
high-performance Brembo braking system reins in the VXR Clubsport’s blistering potential.
