Production of the new Astra generation in Rüsselsheim has just started with the five-door model – and the all-new Opel Astra Sports Tourer is also already available to order. With pure and bold styling, the new compact class estate features innovative technologies and the fully digital, intuitively operated Pure Panel cockpit. All this comes at attractive prices: customers can order the completely redesigned Opel Astra Sports Tourer starting at €23,565 (all prices RRP including VAT in Germany). Numerous state-of-the-art assistance systems such as front collision warning with automatic emergency braking, pedestrian detection, lane departure warning, traffic sign recognition, drowsiness detection as well as cruise control with intelligent speed limiter are standard equipment in every version. A head-up display can be ordered as an option, so that the driver’s focus can always remain on the road. In addition, there is plenty of space for luggage and equipment in the load compartment, which can hold up to 1,634 litres (with the seats folded down). Lively performance at the entry level is provided by the 1.2-litre, three-cylinder turbo, direct injection petrol engine (81 kW/110 hp) with six-speed manual gearbox (WLTP¹ combined fuel consumption: 5.7-5.5 l/100 km, 129-125 g/km CO₂).

Opel is consistently continuing its electric offensive with the new Astra Sports Tourer. The newcomer is also the brand’s first electrified estate – and can be ordered now as a powerful and highly efficient plug-in hybrid. The electric version of Astra Sports Tourer fun starts at just €36,900; after deducting the Environmental Bonus, the purchase price is only €29,722.50. With a system output of 133 kW/180 hp and a powerful 360 Newton metres of maximum torque, sporty and responsible driving fun are perfectly combined (WLTP¹ combined fuel consumption: 1.2-1.1 l/100 km, CO₂ emissions 26-25 g/km). As a plug-in hybrid, the new Opel Astra Sports Tourer can cover up to 60 kilometres (according to WLTP²) purely electrically emissions-free.

“With the new Opel Astra Sports Tourer, we make a real statement in compact class estates. It features innovative, digital technologies such as the Pure Panel cockpit, which is otherwise only available in higher vehicle segments. In addition, we offer a typical Opel package with plenty of space for passengers and luggage. The Sports Tourer comes as a plug-in hybrid right at the start of sales, to be followed by a purely battery-electric version in the not-too-distant future. And the Astra Sports Tourer also looks fantastic,” says Opel CEO Uwe Hochgeschurtz.

Like the Opel Astra-e five-door model, the battery-electric version of the new Astra Sports Tourer will complete the drive portfolio of the compact class bestseller in the course of 2023. Details will follow at a later date.

So beautiful, so practical: Emotional design meets everyday practicality

The new Opel Astra Sports Tourer, like the five-door model, is a true design statement: bold and pure, it is the first Opel estate to feature the new Opel Vizor brand face. Under the Vizor are class-leading technologies such as the latest version of the adaptive, glare-free Intelli-Lux LED^® Pixel Light. The light system with a total of 168 LED elements comes directly from Opel’s flagships Insignia and Grandland. The new Astra is also the first estate to be available with a stylish two-tone paint finish. Under the sleek silhouette stretching from the front to the characteristic rear with a vertical third brake light, there is plenty of space for all everyday needs.

With vital statistics of 4,642 x 1,860 x 1,480 millimetres (L x W x H) and a loading height of around 600 mm, the practical new Astra Sports Tourer further strengthens Opel’s leading reputation in the estate market sector and also displays the brand’s typical talent for efficient packaging. However, the overall length is 60 mm shorter than that of the previous model, thanks to the particularly short front overhang, and despite the considerably longer wheelbase of 2,732 mm (+70 mm) that is even 57 mm longer than that of the new Astra hatchback.

The load volume for the combustion engine variants with the seats folded down is up to 1,634 litres. In addition, there are practical details such as the “Intelli-Space” loading floor, which can be adjusted to two heights and parked at a 45-degree angle. For even higher convenience, the retractable boot storage cover can be stowed when the moveable floor is in both the upper as well as the lower position. The new Astra Sports Tourer with “Intelli-Space” can also make life easier in the event of a flat tyre. The kits for tyre repair and first aid are stored in clever underfloor compartments that can be accessed from the boot or rear passenger seating area. This means that the kits can be reached without needing to fully unpack the boot. So not only luggage and equipment but also items such as a dog box can be comfortably accommodated. And even the Astra plug-in hybrid with lithium-ion batteries installed in the underbody can still hold up to 1,553 litres.

Leap in time in the interior: Fully digital Pure Panel cockpit

The interior of the new Opel Astra Sports Tourer has taken a big step forward too. The fully digital Pure Panel human-machine-interface (HMI) offers customers a pure, intuitive experience. Operation is via an extra-wide touchscreen, just like a smartphone. Important settings such as climate control can still be selected directly via just a few switches. There is no need for cables in the new Astra Sports Tourer either, since the new generation of multimedia infotainment and connectivity systems can be connected to wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto via compatible smartphones, already available on the entry-level variant.

Outstanding seating comfort is typical of Opel. Developed in-house, the front seats of the new Astra Sports Tourer are certified by Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V. / Campaign for Healthier Backs (AGR). The ultra-ergonomic seats are the best the compact class has to offer, featuring a wide range of optional adjustments depending on trim level, from electro-pneumatic lumbar support to adjustable side bolsters. In Nappa leather, they even offer ventilation and massage for the driver and front passenger, and heating for the front and outer rear seats.

^[1] The fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions figures mentioned comply with the WLTP homologation (regulation EU 2017/948). From 1 September 2018, new vehicles are type-approved using the World Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure (WLTP), which is a new, more realistic test procedure for measuring fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions. The WLTP fully replaces the New European Drive Cycle (NEDC), which was the test procedure used previously. Due to more realistic test conditions, the fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions measured under the WLTP are in many cases higher compared to those measured under the NEDC. The fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions figures may vary depending on specific equipment, options and format of tires.

^[2] Pure electric range according to WLTP: 59-60 km; electric range (EAER City) according to WLTP: 68-73 km. Range determined according to WLTP test procedure methodology (R (EC) No. 715/2007, R (EU) No. 2017/1151). The actual range can vary under everyday conditions and depends on various factors, in particular on personal driving style, route characteristics, outside temperature, use of heating and air conditioning and thermal preconditioning.
