From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Vauxhall has announced a new, cleaner version of its Corsa ecoFLEX which scrapes in below the 100g/km mark for CO2 emissions, an achievement matched only by a few other cars on the market.
The latest ecoFLEX has a revised 1.3litre turbodiesel engine that provides increased power (up from 75 to 95 horsepower) and torque (up 20 Newton-metres to 190 Nm) while at the same time delivering lower CO2 emissions (98g/km compared with 105 for the three-door version) and a combined cycle fuel consumption figure of 76.3mpg. Vauxhall's sugaring of the eco pill with that sort of power boost seems bound to be popular with motorists who would otherwise shun special economy models.
Pricing for the new Corsa ecoFLEXes will be announced closer to the January 2010 on-sale date.
