The 53rd racket of the world, American tennis player Danielle Collins reached the second semi-final of the WTA-1000 tournament in her career.
Previously, she managed to do this in 2018, also at a tournament in Miami (USA). Then, in the match for the right to play in the final, the American lost to Elena Ostapenko (Latvia) with a score of 6:7 (1:7), 3:6.
Note that Collins became only the second tennis player in the history of the Premiers to reach the first two semi-finals of the thousanders in her career at the same tournament. The first is Czech Barbora Krejcikova, who reached her first two semi-finals at the competition in Dubai.
In the semi-final match of the current tournament in Miami, Collins will play with the winner of the confrontation between Ekaterina Alexandrova (Russia, 16) and Jessica Pegula (USA, 5).
The new Opel Corsa is even bolder, even more emotional, even more intuitive to drive and with completely new electric and hybrid drives.
The novelty takes Opel’s traditionally strong offering in the compact car segment to a new level. 100% German – 100% Opel.
The new Corsa impresses with its new design, in particular the characteristic face of the Opel Vizor brand at the front and the Opel lettering confidently placed in the middle of the rear. Modern technologies make driving more relaxed. As an option, the new Corsa offers a fully digital cockpit based on the Snapdragon Cockpit platform from Qualcomm Technologies 1 with a new intuitive infotainment system and a color touch screen with a diagonal of up to 10 inches.
The Intelli-Lux LED ® matrix light, which Corsa introduced to the compact car segment in 2019, has also become even better and more precise – now with 14 LED elements. And the latest interpretation of the bestseller of compact hatchbacks also boasts modern technologies under the hood. The Corsa Electric now also has more power and an improved battery, providing a range of up to 402 kilometers according to the WLTP. The Corsa is the first Opel model to be available as a hybrid with a 48-volt system. Thus, the New Corsa offers buyers a choice of drivetrains, from purely electric to hybrid and high-efficiency diesel engines, unmatched in this segment.
Bold, pure, full of emotion: the new Corsa design with Opel Vizor
Perfect proportions and precision down to the smallest detail, all this gathered in a bold and clean appearance – this is the new Opel Corsa. German designers have made the bestseller of compact hatchbacks even more modern and stylish. The most impressive feature is the recognizable and original Opel Vizor – the characteristic face of the Brand that adorns all new Opel models. A gloss black panel extends across the entire front of the Corsa and seamlessly integrates the car’s grille, LED headlights and Opel Blitz center console into a single element. Depending on the configuration, the Brand logo on the front and back is presented in black or matte silver, which attracts attention. The optical “air intakes” at the bottom of the front bumper are larger and more prominent than before, giving the Corsa a more solid look on the road.
Intuitive and focused on the main thing: the new cabin design
Thanks to numerous new features, the Corsa also creates a modern atmosphere in the cabin. New seat models, as well as a new design of the gearshift lever and steering wheel, all contribute to this. However, the highlight – both visually and technically – is the optional all-digital dash with the new infotainment system. The integrated Snapdragon Cockpit platform from Qualcomm Technologies 1 has enhanced graphics, multimedia, computing and integrated artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities. This provides a more integrated, context-aware and constantly adaptive system that can evolve according to passenger preferences.
As in the last-generation Astra, the “Detox to the max” principle has been applied: the navigation system offers connected services, “Hey Opel” speech recognition and over-the-air updates. In addition, the novelty is equipped with a 10-inch touch display, which has an even better resolution and allows you to view the necessary information in a matter of seconds. Importantly, the New Opel Corsa allows you to connect your smartphone wirelessly.
Even more precise: the Intelli-Lux LED ® matrix light with 14 LED elements
Starting in 2019, the adaptive Intelli-Lux LED matrix headlights show how the Corsa makes innovation in the compact hatchback segment accessible to everyone. German engineers are constantly working on further improvements, which brings new developments to the Corsa as well. Yes, the Intelli-Lux LED® matrix headlights now consist of 14 LED elements instead of 8, providing bright driving that now “cuts out” other road users even more precisely than before.
There are also many other state-of-the-art assistance systems that make driving and maneuvering more relaxing. The offer ranges from a new high-resolution panoramic rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, speed limiter to forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection.
More powerful, more efficient: Corsa Electric with improved battery and new engine
Opel will become a fully electric brand in Europe by 2028, 12 models are already electrified, and the Corsa has become a pioneer in the installation of battery-electric drives in the Opel portfolio. Therefore, it is not surprising that the Corsa-e received the “Golden steering wheel” in 2020. The all-electric Corsa offers emissions-free and compromise-free driving – both for everyday use and when travelling. The new Corsa Electric now offers even more choice and pleasure: a wide range of configurations, more power, an improved battery and a larger reserve
