The interior has received several changes, though they're all so minor it still appears mostly the same. But up against some of the C-segment hatchback competition, its design may be just too conservative for buyers who prefer to make more of a visual statement with their car. Opel has also thrown some new exterior colours at the Astra, which look smart. As an owner, you're unlikely ever to see it bar climbing underneath, but you might see its benefits in the frequency of trips to the fuel pump. Additionally, a new underbody cover for the engine and transmission, in conjunction with a larger heat shield on the fuel tank and aero-optimised control arms on the rear suspension, contributes to improving airflow underneath the car significantly. With these shutters closed the reduction in drag in this area can apparently reduce CO 2 emissions by 2g/km.

They also help retain engine heat to improve start-up and reduce pollutants. Ventilation shutters for the radiators can close when not required, reducing the car's aerodynamic drag and allowing it to pass through the air more cleanly. If the chrome isn't to your taste, Opel will also offer a high gloss black pack instead.Д«ehind that grille and bumper is where the Astra's greater efficiency begins. Minor styling changes to the lower section of the front bumper give a slightly more sporting look with additional chrome strips spanning the fog light area. This chrome accent continues into the headlight, becoming part of its design. To give you a head start there is a new grille that carries the wing design seen on other models like the Insignia.

You will need to be something of an Opel Astra aficionado to spot the exterior changes to this mildly facelifted version. New engines and improved automatic transmissions boost its performance and lower emissions for the 2020 model year. Having sold more 14 million of them (between the Astra and its former Kadett moniker), Opel isn't inclined to mess with its formula. The Opel Astra has long been regarded as one of those safe bets when it comes to buying a hatchback.
