Chevrolet Corsica
The Chevrolet Corsica is a compact car that was produced by Chevrolet from the 1987 to 1996 model years. Taking its name from the French Mediterranean island, the Corsica was the successor of the Chevrolet Citation. Sold initially as a four-door sedan, a 5-door hatchback was offered from the 1989 to 1991 model years; the Chevrolet Beretta two-door coupe was sold as its companion model line for its entire production. The model line was sold in the United States, Canada, and the Middle East; in Canada, Pontiac sold the Corsica as the Pontiac Tempest from 1987 to 1991.
