The fourth generation of the Holden Barina was actually a rebadged version of the European Opel Corsa C.

While the first two generations of the Barina were based on Suzuki platforms, the third and fourth generations were based on the second and third generations of the Opel Corsa C. The idea was to keep the manufacturing prices low and the money inside GM.

The idea was well received by the Brits and the Barina was one of the most appreciated city cars. It was available in three or five-door configurations.

The Barina was cheap, reliable, and easy to fix if anything went wrong. It featured sharp-looking headlights, with a small, black grille between them, giving the car a far better personality than its predecessor, the rebadged Suzuki Swift.

Inside, the car featured good amenities for its segment, even though the base model didn't feature power-windows or air-conditioning. The Barina featured a long options list, including a CD-player, power-windows, or on-board computer, moving up to the trim level and options list.

The Barina was available with a choice of engines ranged between 1.4-liter and 1.8 liters. They were paired to a standard, 5-speed manual gearbox for the entire range.

The Holden Barina SRi , a better equipped version of the regular model was later introduced.

Safety-wise, the Barina managed to score 4 out of 5 stars.
