A basic Corsa with a 60-horsepower motor costs 9,995 euros in Germany, Opel said in a statement.
A spokesman for GM Europe in Switzerland said the new price reflected a basic model that nonetheless had full safety features, Reuters said.
“It is a very aggressive response to Dacia Logans and Volkswagen Foxes,” the spokesman told Reuters.
He said basic Corsas would have similar prices across Europe.
