It looks like the Corsa is rising to the occasion! These are the best spy shots yet of the Luton-based firm's new small 4x4, which we've snapped undergoing testing in the Arctic Circle.Based on the Corsa’s underpinnings, but with a jacked-up ride height and a four-wheel drive system, the new model will go into battle with the forthcoming MINI Crossman and Skoda's recently-unveiled Yeti in the emerging supermini SUV segment. And as you can see from the wheelbase on this Meriva-based prototype the new model will be roughly the same size as the supemini MPV.Entering a totally new market for Vauxhall, the Corsa SUV will be powered by a wide range of small capacity turbocharged petrol and diesel engines and just like the Yeti, will be available in both front-wheel drive and 4x4 form.Expect the styling to feature muscular wheelarches, to accommodate a widened track and traditional SUV cues such as roof rails and plastic protective bumpers for a more rugged appearance. Although that car will go on sale in early 2010, the Corsa SUV is still some way off – don't expect a worldwide debut until 2011 at the earliest. For more details click here.
