I felt like I was sitting in the car next to this guy and we were having a conversation about the Corsa. His presentation style is just so natural. Good job.
He is just amazing. Better than any other youtuber. Matt Watson from Carwow is just so annoying. Plainly annoying!
@@emp7y nope
Rory just makes you feel the need to buy every car he reviews, just gets crazy
No it doesn't.
No not true .. you just love Rory because he is your brother ...
@@keithbickerdike4621 just supporting, I won't mind being his brother he is so good at his work, it is an art and I love it
True but that's not necessarily a good thing. He needs to be a bit more critical.
To be honest if you need a good car, all of the cars he reviews are very decent 😉
I think the styling is underrated. Other more trendy designs do just that: They follow some the current trends but those don't necessarily look that cool five years down the line. I think the Corsa design might endure because it's pretty well balanced overall. As for design details, I think you overlooked the nice wheel design and a good treatment of the two color paint with the blacked out roofline. The wheels are taunt and pushed to the corners which give it a nice stance. The C-piller forward swoop is especially well executed. Vauxhall needs to keep this up but it also needs a more distinct design language that will further separate it from its competitors. Good review.
Nah it's munted
@@Kylirr nah its good
Well, it‘s currently britains best selling car, so i wouldn‘t call the design underrated. As for me, i personally think that the proportions are just off, and it looks pretty strange, not ugly thought
I agree. The styling of the Ioniq 5 for example might not endure. I prefer the Kia EV6, it is more balanced.
It's just... A design, it's not ugly at all but it's not good looking too, there's nothing to complain about but It's not rememberable, at least it better to look at than a Toyota Prius
Sometimes you just want a car, and the Corsa E is just a car! 😂
The nokia 3310 of cars
@@leonpalmer2429 The Nokia 3310 was known for reliability. Vauxhalls not so much.
@@BigUriel I have a vauxhall vectra and it's the most reliable car I've ever owned. Most reliability issues I've had with cars have been vw.
@@BigUrieli have a 3 year old corsa and don't have any problems
Exactly what I always said. All the guys talking about how theyre gonna miss the petrol engines. What are you gonna miss in your 2.0 4cyl vw golf? The noise? For normal cars Electric motors are so much more comfortable
It's interesting that people don't see lots of noise actually as wasted energy as that is what it is at the end of the day. - Energy that could be used to drive the car even faster.
yes exactly right ppl just think about a 812s superfasts v12 which yeah fair enough everyone will miss but almost every normal car on the road will sound and be so much better electric a tiny 3 cylinder with stop start is so much worse that an electric set up
@@cheekychappy1234 Its kinda difficult to use noise as an energy source. I dont know for sure, but you probably dont get a significant extra if it was possible.
@@liamhodgkinson5286 Exactly! imagine a city with only electric cars/ motorcycles. That would make living there so much more enjoyable
My favourite TH-cam comment in a while😂😂🔥
Did anyone see the trim around the gear lever lift off a bit at 05:41? So much for build quality...
Only saw this when you pointed it out - good eye mate
Can’t see it…
The build quality of cars are never equal, not even in case of the best factories in the world, just saying…
@@Sherukka not sure about that comment. Are you saying every car is built differently?
@@bbar182 Yeah, I mean there is still people involved and the production quality vary…
@@generally_ok I have a e-208 but haven’t noticed. Flex is not bad but loose surely is! 😂
I would say that is loose but I try to check mine. It is the same shifter in every Stellantis car, I think…
Rory, OLEV changed their name to OZEV at the end of 2020.
“To align with the government’s net-zero ambitions, last month the Office for Low Emission Vehicles (OLEV) which is the government unit responsible for overseeing the transition to zero-emission cars and vans, was renamed to The Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV).”
Why do people slag this little thing off? I love the understated design of this car.
In five years time, buyers of new cars will have considerably less choice in ICE cars, so those whom are looking for a new smallish hatchback will have cars such as this to choose from. From what Rory has said, there is no particular need for petrol or diesel lovers to hang themselves...... cars like this will be fine! Plus of course in 4 to 5 years time, the charging infrastructure, particularly on main routes, will have improved considerably..... Around 7000 new chargers were installed last year alone in the UK.....
Same goes for Germany. Charging stations have popped up all across the land especially during the last 2 years. And with development on batteries, construction and power efficiency still being at a relatively early stage we have a lot of good stuff still coming. The age of the combustion engine is coming to an end and I'm glad to be around to witness this.
Had the previous gen Corsa and it was absolutely brilliant. So reliable for me and very comfortable. Stuck a tent in the boot and drove to France and back on a 2 week trip, driving through Paris on the way back up. It was also roasting hot and the air con was on full every day and it never once flapped.
Would absolutely love to try this new one on a similar trip to see how they compare!
I own the new Corsa. It's brilliant. I think Rory massively underrates its looks, in my opinion it looks great. (Maybe I'm biased though). It's so comfortable, relaxing, easy to drive, good visibility. Honestly for me, it ticks all boxes. I have zero complaints with it, I love it and I 100& recommend it to anybody who's looking for a small car
Dont drive through paris tough, its a nightmare
Love watching TH-cam car reviews especially new electric options and this guy is the very best presenter. Clear not clever, fun not funny, bright not boring. more please young man.
I like the design, love the angles in the boot and rear lights the cleverly blacked out roof and c pillars, the mesh grill and wheel position. I think it's much better than any other Corsa that has come before it. The spec list is really impressive too, with alot of saftey kit and road recognition software aids that you would expect on much more expensive cars. I don't know about down south, but up here the Corsa is outselling the Peugeot 208 by quite a high amount. They seem to be everywhere haha.
5:40 The way the gear lever surround trim lifts when you pull on the lever
Really good review Rory. I appreciate you not spending time going on about body panel shapes and styling which most reviewers seem to think we need.
Got one since December 2021 and I love it. Decent price (after gov. support) and a nice range for a trip or your daily commute even on a faster motorway without the need to recharge every day. Heatpump is a standard etc. Some things do annoy like the charge and preheat programming only via smartphone-app (I guess that applies for the non sat nav entertainment systems) and the fairly bad traffic sign recognition. But everything else is great. Yeah, I'd say it's a very underrated car.
What range do you get and what does a charge cost?
@@Sheltie1001 Range depends on how the car is used and how you drive. We use it as a daily commuters car with about 75% highway drive. Cold or bad weather and winter tires like we use now drain the battery fast. Therefore our average kWh/100km consumption is quite high in the winter, it's about 19. That was expected by us based on information we gathered before we got the car. We even assumed it to be higher, so we are fine with it. Using the car in the city or on roads with 70-100km/h max. lowers the average down to 12-15 kWh/100km. All this in normal or mostly eco drive mode with a moderate driving style. Sport mode is another story.
Since we use our own wallbox, a charge costs us the price per kWh our energy provider charges us. Assuming we take the 19kWh/100km and our kWh price is about 25 cents, it costs us a whooping 4,75€ per 100km. Our gas car needs 11€ per 100km (average 5,5l/100km, 2€/Liter gas). We are thinking to change to a provider with an e-car fare that lowers the kWh price for the wallbox a bit but at the same time raises the fare per kWh for the rest of the house. It's a matter of calculation.
Hope that helps.
@@mpmyprojects6687 thank you for your reply 👍
Add a NOS sticker, flame decals, maybe an offset racing stripe...
Haha!! Ironymobile 🤣
When you changed the gear lever back the whole thing including the surround lifted. Was it loose or.......
Loving the Corsa E. Another great review, Rory, and I really appreciate your friendly, honest and down to earth presenting style. Well done, mate.
5:40 oof look at that gear selector
Cheappppp
that caught my attention as well
Now thats what a car review should cover and how it should be presented.
clear and concise and relevant and based in Reality!
For a car developped in les than 2 years I think they did a fine job
Very good presentation and helpful comments in the video.
Love these reviews Rory as you have a wicked sense of humour, cheers.
Great reviews :) the Peugeot e208 is a much smaller car inside though weirdly, sat in both this weekend, well I say sat, I could barely fit in the 208, it felt much smaller inside and the big central tunnel really cramped things up. The Corsa was just about ok for the driver, weirdly the Fiat 500e was so much more roomy for the driver if not the people sat behind!
5:40 Ah that solid Vauxhall build quality.
The trim came off
I've only ever owned a couple of Astras, but I have owned a few Fords, including a 2013 Focus. The build quality on that car was truly awful. I shan't bother with another Ford.
It’s actually a rebodied Peugeot so that’s the standard Peugeot build quality ie rubbish
Good video, Thank you. I was not lucky with my e corsa. The Vauxhall app paralized the car. No turn off, no drive...even I could not lock the doors. The RAC restarted the system after a long waiting time.
Fair play to Vauxhall going electric and going early, should pay off long term
hey, enjoying your reviews very much keep doing a terrific job
can you review the Mokka E we are looking into it and no one is reviewing it well
thank youuuu
Loved the design highlights section... Kept laughing and had to watch it multiple times!!! 😂😂😂😂😂
Ahhhh what a relief, a decent car review….. good work, thank you.
i got it for 3 months now and i love it 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Decent mid-range effort, Vauxhall, could be better ... but cheaper price with a little bit less range is ok ... the orange doesn't flatter it ... the white looked much better. Great review, thanks
After driving one as a courtesy car I found it nippy round town . Plus very easy to use
Some more napkin maths - if you do save £20 for every 200 miles in the Corsa E and it costs £8000 more than the petrol equivalent, then the Corsa E becomes the cheaper car to own after 80,000 miles.
Which is actually not that bad, if you take into consideration that you´ll also pay less repair costs. Decent deal I´d say.
Do we know how many miles it actually will live?
@@platin2148 depends on the company I guess different brands have batteries that hold up differently overtime for some reason
@@platin2148 Corsa Batteries have a warranty of 8 years or 100k miles.
With 5p/kWh nighttime rates savings can be even better. Around 10% of the cost of petrol equivalent for fuel. Payback could be more like 50,000 miles. For those looking at new cars and have a driveway, EVs are the obvious choice. It'll be a lot better when there's more on the road and cheaper 2nd hand ones are readily avaliable.
Watching this just a year later and there’s already really good value for money second hand ones for around £13k!
Lots of fun in sport mode on bendy roads,. B is great for decelerating if just used like dropping a gear on sporty roads. ? Did you actually check the tyre pressures that you were handed the car with with the crappy Michelin Primacy 4 to see if they were overinflated to help you get the range. ? How many miles did you actually go in the car?
Grest review! Nicely done.
He is the best presenter I have seen in a long time.
Another clear and concise review
They hit the range point that I've been calling for over the last several years for a budget ev, but they still haven't hit the price point. Once they can get that kind of car with a tag under $20K USD, they'll take years to be able to keep up with orders. That trim pulling up when he shifted down to B mode was kinda cringe though.
saw that too... not a good sign. Well, at least it isn't hundreds of bucks to repair door handles though... this is just some crazy glue and you're off to the races ;-)
Price still is a problem, especially because there isn’t really a market for used EVs that people on a tighter budget could find a car in. But what people forget is, that there are way less maintenance or repair bills, so EVs quickly make up their heigh initial costs. Anf for example in germany you can get a discount of 9k on every new EV under 40k. Because of that discount EVs are only slightly more expensive when buying. After that: cheaper to run, less maintenance and no tax. That means EVs are already cheaper in Germany.
@@Ueberredet Hence me calling for a $20k USD car. That's US Dollars. Many americans don't make nearly enough every year to qualify for the government tax incentives that are supposed to make these $35K+ cars affordable, so they just aren't. Add to that, they hold their value FAR better than any ice cars of their class because of their increased longevity AND scarcity, and you end up with a perfect storm of cost that is keeping the vast majority of the car buying market, the used market, almost completely excluded from the EV world.
PSA build quality now with added fiat literally the worst. I saw one on fire a few days ago on the motorway :)))
We should wait for 2022 tesla hatchback
Owned a corsa e for a few months now. It's just a non pretentious small EV. I like the fact that it doesn't shout EV. It just gets the job done and drives nicely.
I have been driving the corsa e for a few months now and I am pretty impressed. it is my first EV and I did not expect to like it that much. The corsa is superb for people who do mainly city driving. I also had a few 200km trips and could not find any fault with the car. Yes, it is not very spacious in the back, but if one is planning on transporting constantly 3 or 4 people, than this kind of car is certainly not for him.
Seems like a better car than the VW ID4. Pretty sad that a basic car that's been retrofitted with batteries is a better EV than an EV designed specifically to be one.
Saw one the other day (VW). The thing had archaic steel wheels/trims. Yuk. Talk about penny pinching.
I died laughing when you mentioned the highlights 😂
RIP
Yeah, that got me good too. But it is as Rory says: the Corsa is just a car. Nothing fancy but not too shabby either.
Thank you Rory.
Hmmm not sure I agree with you on the looks Rory, it is a smart looking thing in the flesh. Much better than the old one….
Agreed, and I'm no Vauxhall fan but that design looks smart in my eyes far better than the said Honda and the BMW i3 for example ✔
Brilliant review Rory, makes a lot is sence, after the recent petrol issue my next car will have to be electric.
I'm an American who wouldn't even be able to get the corsa anyways, but I still love the review and cinematography as always! Cheers to another great episode!
I think the new Corsa is a huge jump from the previous generation, I had the chance to drive the petrol version and it’s lovely.
The highlights scene was hilarious 😂. Long term test; Rory is the best presenter
Lol I love Rory Reid! He's a joy to watch! I initially wasn't keen on him years ago when he didn't like electric cars, but well done on the change!!
Really great review
If I was buying an expensive car I’d get this guy to drive it first, then I’d drive it, then we’d go for a pint and discuss it. I really would appreciate his input and sensible opinion. 👍
I am no Opel fan but it look really good in my opinion.. possibly best looking city car on sale in my opinion..
Loved the head scratching vacant look about the styling..."yeah its just a Corsa"
Great review
I prefer the interior of the Corsa E to the over designed icockpit in the E 208.
Yeah, this kinda irked me too on the 208. Personal taste, I guess.
Liking the Rory style. I really like the look of the Corsa
5:41 where the plastic from the gear selector bezel and the center console come apart ... quality
5:40 Pretty sure that gear lever almost popped out 😂
It’s not trash. He’s just really strong 😅
The main advantage over the Peugeot are the LED headlights. Last winter on B (and C) roads in the rain those where ... enlightening (pun intended 😀)
If you've not had one of these do you at the lights thinking they're in a telsa you've not lived 😍
You need to know the B mode works like "one pedal driving" more or less but only once you have depleted some of your battery as it will not use regenerative breaking until it has some place to store the energy
This actually surprised me a lot when I first noticed it myself. It makes sense but it is unsettling for a few moments when you let go of the accelerator and the car just mostly keeps going at its current speed instead of slowing down as expected.
@@robertmandl9326 Driving some EV's is like using moms sewing machine.
@@bafattvahetere I'm not sure how to read you here... is this good or bad?
It did look like the dampers weren’t coping with weight of the battery very well. Every time Rory hit a bump in a straight line the car’s suspension would keep oscillating for quite a while. Apart from that the handling looked reasonable but I think even though they’re more expensive the longer range NiroEV and Kona are probably better value propositions (ie cheaper per kWh of battery) and I think the Niro is more practical.
Impressive vehicle. Love the interior.
The battery usable is 45 kWh not the 50 kWh. Home charging maybe £5, Public 50kW charging maybe £9 & 100 kW Public can be £16-£20. and that is for maybe 135 miles with people in the car, colder weather, and 120 in cold near freezing weather.
I like the fact AT are getting ahead of the game on the EV front
Nice Video Rory. Subscribed.
Thanks
Nice review Rory.
To my eyes the Corsa is the best looking car in its class. Much better than the cars mentioned.
If you save £20 every 200 miles then at an average of 10000 miles a year you save £1000. So it would take you 8 years to break even. Also you will spend alot of time at service stations..... probably buying coffee and snacks just to pass the time away. DEFINITELY NOT SAVING MONEY !!
I've driven 900 miles in one of these over the last 10-days. The 200+ mile range is a joke!
Only doable at 40-50mph. Realistic motorway range at 65-70mph is 100-120 miles.
92% / 196mile range when I left Rugby to travel 80 miles home this afternoon. Got home with 40 miles of range left. And I didn't dare put my foot down because the range disappears.
I'd hand this back today if I could. This is only good for driving around town. Should have done more homework. I hope this helps someone avoid
the 200+ range is for round town and not for motorway driving. its well known motorway driving reduces range.
You pay for what you get the Tesla’s will sit all day at 70 mph and get 300 miles plus. Glasgow to Duxford 400 miles via York and total charge time split was 28 minutes - 20 minute lunch stop and a toilet break of eight and if the chargers are there then why not. Car drove 80% on Autopilot, you get out feeling you have just done a hundred miles and that’s from a non trusting autopilot fan being very aware and in control at all times. New chemistry 4180 cells will take them 400-500 miles on the motorway if the science and leaked information is to be believed.
@@SWR112 that sounds perfect tbh. Company didn't have much choice this time round but next time we'll go for this.
Not sure what was wrong with the corsa e you drove, but I've never had less than 150 miles at 65-70mph. At 65mph, it's more like 165 miles. I've done at least 10, 200 mile journeys and it's the same every time. That's with climate control, radio etc on.
That's also what most other people I know with one get too.
Any vehicle uses up more power the faster and more aggressive you drive. If the E Corsa does not meet your needs you really should have put more thought into it BEFORE buying one. Thats as if you buy a normal bicycle and then complain that it cant haul a week's worth of groceries.
Nice jumper Rory 👍
I test drive'd this car two weeks ago, I can say that all the claims are true. It was the first electric car I ever tried and when I got back to my 2015 Nissan Almera, I felt like I was in stone age.
Same here. So I went back the following weekend and bought it (sister model, the e208). So smoooooth to drive and punchy too…
Picked up my new Corsa E Ultimate 2 weeks ago. Still getting the feel for power consumption and recharging, but other than that I'm very happy. It feels... more sophisticated, advanced. And as Rory says: pleasant. Plus its always fun to just take off and be gone in an instant when the traffic light goes green.
> "It's just a Corsa..."
Well... At least the best-looking Corsa of all time!
Absolutely. It’s the first Opel / Vauxhaul ever that I like.
you quoted the 0-62 wrong according to Vauxhall. the 0-60 mph is given as 7.6 seconds and the 0-62 is 8.1. It is quicker than that but then you read the Media Pack and made the error.
*For people mentioning about the trim popping* I have this exact model and don’t have this issue, it’s well in place, this could be the car is a review model or poor quality control.
Same here. No issues on the trim.
I am getting mine in February
When will you guys review the AWD M3 ?
Great to see a "down to earth" EV which proves the trend is definitely towards EVs and away from ICE cars. As rapidly improving battery technology changes come to the market, this level of car will soon become cheaper than a similar ICE vehicle.
When governments start to notice the drop in revenues from the taxes we pay for every litre/ gallon of fuel, they will be introducing taxes based on the kilometres/ miles you travel, and when cars become part of the internet of things (IOT) , cars will automatically download & transmit the distance we have travelled and we will be billed accordingly for our usage. So to say it only costs £5 to “fill her up” is true for now provided the cost of power stays consistent. What if the governments allow the electricity companies to charge you for charging your car at peak times ( after you get home from work)? All of a sudden the £5 might become £7.50 recharge...There are some unexplored variables for the cost of recharging, and the ones who will really be able to reap the savings are the ones who are the early adapter to these types of vehicles. So the ones that have the money to buy them now. Also what will the service costs for electric vehicles be like, since there will be less maintenance items to replace ( oil, filters, sparkplugs, etc) ? Will manufacturers adjust the cost of service schedules due to the cut in revenue from service work?
@@paulsz6194 Valid points Paul. I suspect there will be some tweaks such as governments raising the taxes on ICE fuels in real terms, one to help offset the loss of revenue and two, to partly continue the fight against climate change. When there is massive disruption in an industry there are winners and losers, manufacturers of ICE cars & components will either find other EV products to make or go under. Workers may lose jobs but this will be offset by job creation in the new industries that build EVs and components. As well as new energy products, solar panels, batteries and services etc etc. Unfortunately, even without the EV disruption, computer AI tech and robots would have destroyed many jobs in a wide range of industries. Wow, just so much change in such a short period of history, it's difficult to accurately predict outcomes.
@@paulsz6194 Here in Australia we have one state already looking at taxing EV by the kilometres to make up for what they are losing in petrol taxes. I don’t understand that mentality when there is a big push to be environmentally friendly then tax you for doing it. Personally I’m not entirely sold on EV being better for the environment as there are so many factors not taken into account from the manufacturing of the EV and all the minerals mined for components (let’s not forget mining is a massive user of diesel fuel) and then the same thing for the manufacturing of power plants to increase our supply of electricity. There is absolutely no way to figure in every aspect of these things to give an accurate account of what we are doing but what scares me is many people are making a hell of a lot of money pushing green technology, I believe we need to do something but I don’t fully believe everything we are being sold.
@@knight2425 100% agree with mate! 👍
Any word of an Astra version?
Great review👌👏 enjoyed it!
Bro one thing is missing yet, please bring us the audi r8 as it is my favorite I want to know your opinion on that because you are the best to do that. Wish you will do it definitely!!!
Yeah but you just watch electricity prices rise through the roof once we are all on them and have no choice
Not kidding.
@@dougbhorne I mean he has a point. Your kitchen appliances use way less energy than moving 2 tons at 100km/h. Gas has pretty high energy density and there is a lot of it. Now imagine all that energy needs to come from electricity, no way it does not influence electricity pricing.
@@dougbhorne electric and gas retail price has gone up 6 fold this last month so yes any electric car will get more expensive to run
Of course electricity will become more expensive. But so does petrol and diesel, and at a much more alarming rate than electricity. Been laughing my ass off a few times already comparing prices. Glad I got an EV now.
@@robertmandl9326 when I fill my car up it has a 500 mile range and will always unlike a electric car which starts out ok then just goes down hill
His sweater colour almost matches the car's colours, nice detail lol
The actual range of this car would be either 4x44.5 or 3.6x44.5 making it 178 or 160 mile per full charge but the manufacturer wouldn’t recommend to charge 100% every charge so more realistic would be 100-125 miles between charges in good conditions I recon. Can some confirm or deny my theory please. Thanks
Rory you've really become my favourite new motorsport journalist. Keep up the great work.
wouldn't think about this for a second, the Kia Soul entry model costs under 20k€, including single pedal driving.
Just to confuse new owners more you show a type 2 -7kw connector going into a 100kw CCS port - nice
That gear selector has come straight out of the Peugeot parts bin.
Nice car. I have the newest Zoe ZE50 and I personally think it’s a better choice but either would be a respectable EV
I was hoping he'd mention how it compares to the ZE50 as I'm currently weighing them both up!
@@rohinimathur6392 Carwow did a good range test between the Zoe, Corsa and some others. I would take a look at both, Zoe would be my recommendation but only the rapid charge model. The seating position is very different in both though, in the Zoe you sit really high because of the batteries so you may not like that. It’s fine for me and I’m 6’0, you get used to it and it softens a lot of the bumps :)
@@Robjohnson123 Thanks for the summary- i'm quite short so I'm hoping that the higher seating position in the Renault would be good for me also!
As far as I know the Zoe has a bit more range. What put me off on the Renault though is the monthly rent on the battery. I just don't like that concept.
@@robertmandl9326 the battery rental scheme isn’t around anymore for the ZE50s (at least in the UK) and all of the new Zoes are battery owned :)
I've had a good look at one of these inside a local Costco, it was the shodiest thing I've ever seen. You can actually see at the top of the doors the two skins of metal have been stopped with a rubber bung, which dropped off with a poke
You messed with someone else’s vehicle I don’t get it?
@@italianstallion701 no inside on show
And you sure as hell were the very first person to prod and poke at a car thats been put on display in a supermarket.
Good well considered review.
Underrated? It’s the best selling e-car in UK lol
"Just a Corsa" - thats a thing, this car is commonly underrated.
The real cost with all cars is depreciation. So the question is how will current electric cars drop as new batteries etc arrive. Then how will petrol cars drop as electric gets popular. So many people buying new on pcp will increase depreciation too. Running cost is mainly tax. Once a lot of people go electric the tax will be applied.
Exactly, in a few years time electric cars will just as expensive to run as petrol is now,
But then will Gov tax petrol even more?
My guess is all car ownership costs will be sky high,
I ride an ebike and wife drives the car , ebike does more miles than the car and is a lot more fun , waiting for Gov to figure out how to tax that next
By the time running costs for an EV get to the same level as "normal" cars are now I expect "normal" cars to be so expensive that barely any average person can foot the bills anymore.
The Corsa E almost made my top 3 BEVs I'm considering to replace my current car.
Yeah I was considering it too ending up going with a Taycan instead ultimately.
@@Kylirr Difficult choice but I think you made the right call.
@@Kylirr The Taycan is also OK.
