The Opel Astra Sports Tourer has been unveiled as a wagon alternative to the hatchback, thus continuing a long-standing tradition for the badge. This new offering boasts an electric powertrain but turbodiesel and petrol engine options are still available.
The Opel Astra Sports Tourer measures about 4 600 mm long, 1 800 mm wide and 1 400 mm tall. ICE-powered models sport a claimed boot capacity of 608 litres and utility space of 1 636 litres when the seats are folded down. In plug-in hybrid guise, the car offers 548 and 1 574 litres respectively.
Available as a source of power for the Opel Astra Sports Tourer is a turbopetrol 1,2-litre three-cylinder mill with an 81 kW and 96 kW state-of-tune as well as a turbodiesel 1,5-litre four-cylinder unit that delivers 96 kW as well. The plug-in hybrid option is supported by a 1,6-litre four-cylinder engine that produces a combined 132 kW.
Standard equipment included on this model is the LED headlamps, a front facing camera, an array of safety features and a 10-inch digital instrument cluster supported by a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment system.
With a load height of 600 mm and optional Intelli-Space feature, which adds a movable load floor that can be tilted at a 45 degee angle, the Opel Astra Sports Tourer enhances its versatility. This option also adds improved storage areas for the first aid and tyre mobility kit.
