Opel Astra Electric overview
Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.
Design
The exterior of the Astra Electric features the distinct Opel Vizor front grille design and a sporty front bumper treatment, giving it a modern and dynamic road presence. The profile is accented by 18-inch alloy wheels that complement the clean, structured lines of the hatchback body. The vehicle has a total length of 4,374 mm, a width of 1,860 mm excluding mirrors (2,062 mm with mirrors), and a height of 1,488 mm, resting on a 2,675 mm wheelbase. Its compact dimensions make it highly maneuverable in city traffic, aided by a turning diameter of 10.5 meters.
Interior
Inside, the Astra Electric features a modern cabin layout centered around the digital Pure Panel. This interface consists of two 10-inch digital screens that handle driver instrumentation and infotainment. Front seats can be upgraded to AGR-certified units, which are designed to support long-distance driving comfort. The cabin accommodates up to five passengers, and despite the battery integration, it retains a practical layout. The luggage compartment offers a cargo volume of 325 liters, which is suitable for daily errands and moderate luggage requirements.
Performance
The hatchback is powered by a front-mounted electric motor delivering 115 kW (156 hp) and 270 Nm of torque, which is available instantly from a standstill. This setup allows the vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.2 seconds and reach a top speed of 170 km/h. While the source text mentions a 54 kWh lithium-ion battery offering up to 416 km of WLTP range and a consumption of 12.7 to 14.9 kWh/100 km, the specification sheet lists a 62 kWh capacity. Charging can be done via a standard 11 kW three-phase onboard charger, or at a 100 kW DC fast-charging station, where it can reach an 80% charge in approximately 30 minutes.
Practicality
As a traditional five-door hatchback, the Astra Electric offers daily utility for city dwellers and small families. The five-seat cabin and 325-liter trunk capacity provide reasonable space for everyday tasks, though the battery layout slightly reduces cargo capacity compared to standard combustion variants. With a kerb weight of 1,736 kg and a turning circle of 10.5 meters, it remains easy to park and navigate through narrow streets, balancing electric efficiency with typical C-segment dimensions.
Safety and tech
Technology on the Astra Electric includes a suite of standard and optional driver assistance systems. Safety features include a forward collision warning system and lane-keep assist to help prevent accidents. The Pure Panel dual 10-inch displays handle navigation and connectivity, while standard LED lighting and optional comfort features like the ergonomically certified AGR seats improve overall drive quality. Charging technology supports both home wallboxes via the 11 kW charger and rapid DC public chargers up to 100 kW.
Buyer notes
When considering the Astra Electric, buyers should note the discrepancies in battery specifications between the promotional text and the technical spec sheet, which list 54 kWh and 62 kWh respectively. Real-world range will depend on driving habits, temperature, and auxiliary usage. The standard 11 kW onboard charger is a useful feature for faster home charging. Prospective buyers should verify the local market availability of the optional AGR-certified seats, as they significantly enhance cabin comfort on longer journeys.
