The Opel Corsa-e is an electric hatchback that is not on the new-car list today. If you own one or are looking at one on the used market, this guide sets out the costs we can show. Those are the COE rule, how road tax is worked out, and car insurance.
The insurance prices are examples for one stated driver, as of 1 November 2026. They are for comparing, not a quote for you.
About the listing
There is no new-car list entry for the Corsa-e on sale now. So this guide gives no list price, power or body type. The price page prices the plain Corsa-e, electric, and the insurance figures below are for it.
The COE it needs
For a fully electric Corsa-e, the price page says:
- Motor of 110kW (147bhp) or less: Category A, at S$132,004 in the October 2026 2nd round
- More powerful motor: Category B, at S$131,901 in the same round
For a used car, what counts most is how long the current COE has left to run. The COE page shows recent rounds.
Road tax
Electric cars pay road tax on motor power. The list has no motor power for the Corsa-e, so we give no figure. You can find the power on the log card and work out the sum on the road tax page.
The age surcharge for cars over 10 years:
- Over 10 years: +10%
- Over 11 years: +20%
- Over 12 years: +30%
- Over 13 years: +40%
- Over 14 years: +50%
Car insurance for the standard driver
The Opel Corsa-E price page prices these details:
- Car: Corsa-e, registered 3 years ago, private use, comprehensive cover
- Driver: aged 40, married, office job, driving 10 years
- Record: 50% no-claim discount (NCD), no claims
- Repairs: authorised workshop, no options
3 insurers price it online. The lowest premium is S$1,391.40 a year. The other two ask S$1,959.22 at their lowest, which is S$567.82 or 41% more. All prices include 9% GST.
Excess
The lowest premium carries an excess of S$1,200. The other two plans carry S$600. The excess is what you pay on each claim. So the lower premium comes with double the excess.
With so few prices, the gap between the lowest and the next one is large. A difference of this size is worth checking against what each plan covers.
Where the other insurers stand
The page names 14 insurers without an online price. Eleven have no price for the Corsa-e yet. Two do not price electric cars online, and one does not list the model.
How the price changes
Each line changes one detail and shows the new lowest price:
- No NCD (0%): S$3,200.21, which is S$1,808.81 more
- 20% NCD: S$2,337.55, which is S$946.15 more
- Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$3,495.83, which is S$2,104.43 more
- Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving: S$1,098.77, which is S$292.63 less
- New car, registered this year: S$1,480.19, which is S$88.79 more
- Car 8 years old: S$1,361.77, which is S$29.63 less
The young driver's line is the steepest, up 151%. Only 1 insurer prices that driver online.
The older driver's line is unusual. It comes out lower than the standard driver's, not higher. That is because 4 insurers price the older driver, one more than the standard case, and the extra one is cheaper. It shows how much the result can turn on who prices a car.
The car's age moves the price only a little. A new car costs S$88.79 more at the lowest, and an 8-year-old car S$29.63 less. For most owners, the NCD and the driver's age are the details that count.
These are lowest prices only. Plans further up may move in other ways, and with three insurers there is little to choose from.
Compared with other electric cars
For the same driver and car age, the page lists six electric cars:
- BMW iX1: S$1,907.27
- BYD Sealion 7: S$1,390.72
- Tesla Model Y: S$939.71
- BYD Atto 3: S$913.63
- Tesla Model 3: S$913.62
- BYD M6: S$861.41
Their average lowest price is S$1,154.39. The Corsa-e is 21% above it, and 5 of the six are cheaper to insure. Only the BMW iX1 costs more. The car insurance page covers other makes.
Costs we leave to you
- Charging: depends on where you charge, the rate and your distance. Check chargers near your HDB block or condo.
- Battery check: ask for a battery health report on any used electric car, and what warranty is left.
- Parking: season parking at home and work, plus parking elsewhere.
- ERP: depends on routes and time of day.
- Parts: a make with few cars here can mean a wait for parts. Ask a workshop first.
- Depreciation: on a used car, the price you pay and the COE years left set it.
