1993 Chevrolet Corsica

1993 Chevrolet Corsica
The Corsica was altered only slightly for 1993 and carried on
with just one body style and trim level.

The 1993 Chevrolet Corsica was a virtual repeat of the 1992 model year, bowing with only minor changes -- none of them visual.

A shift interlock was added to models with automatic transmission, which prevented shifting out of Park unless the driver's foot was on the brake. All Corsicas also got a low-oil-level warning light this year.

Otherwise, it was business as usual. The lone LT trim level came standard with a 110-horsepower 2.2-liter four-cylinder engine, with a 140-horsepower 3.1-liter V-6 optional. Both utilized port fuel injection and came standard with a five-speed manual transmission, offering a three-speed automatic as an option.

Available on V-6-equipped Corsicas was the Z52 sport Handling Package, which added alloy wheels with 205/60R16 tires (in place of standard 185/75R14), a sport steering wheel, sport suspension, and body-side moldings with red inserts.

Prices were up by about $400 (base price now $11,395), but the Corsica remained a good value, being one of the few sedans in its class to offer a driver-side air bag, anti-lock brakes, and available V-6 power.

undercutting most comparable imports.
