Previous model | Opel Astra H. |
successor | Opel Astra K |
The Opel Astra is a car - model of the compact class of the car manufacturer Opel and the successor to the Opel Astra H . The car was presented to the public at the IAA 2009 in Frankfurt am Main .
Still called Astra I during development, the name was changed to Astra J when it was launched in order to prevent the capital letter I from being misunderstood as 1.
Production of the Astra K began in July 2015 and was launched as a five-door model in October of the same year. The Sports Tourer has also been available to order since October 2015. The three-door hatchback model Astra J GTC and the four-door sedan Astra notchback continued to be built until 2018 before they were withdrawn from the market without replacement.
history
On December 4, 2009, the fourth generation of the Astra came onto the market as a five-door hatchback sedan. The wagon version Sports Tourer followed on 13 November 2010. Since September 2012 added a saloon offering. In April 2013, a convertible version based on the Astra J finally followed. It is offered as an independent model under the name Cascada .
Model variants
- five-door hatchback (December 2009 to July 2015)
- five-door station wagon (Sports Tourer; November 2010 to September 2015)
- three-door hatchback (GTC; January 2012 to April 2018)
- four-door notchback (September 2012 to August 2018)
Facelift
With the introduction of the notchback sedan in September 2012, the hatchback and the station wagon were subtly revised, so that from now on a three-dimensional chrome crossbar is used in the radiator grille, the ends of which are now bent upwards. The headlights have a black background and the bezels of the fog lights are now partially rimmed with chrome. At the rear, the Astra is now partially recognizable by a chrome strip (not with option OPC-Line 1) and a modified rear apron (not with option FlexFix [bike carrier]),
On the technical side, new assistance systems and new engines are used. From the end of 2012, a two-liter bi-turbo diesel engine with an output of 195 hp was offered. In addition, the 1.4-liter turbo gasoline engine with 140 hp now has an automatic overboost function that can increase the maximum torque by ten percent from 200 to 220 Nm in the short term. As of November 2013, the 1.4 liter naturally aspirated engine with 87 or 100 hp was discontinued, as the 1.6 liter, 115 hp naturally aspirated engine took over the position of the basic engine.
Equipment variants
While the Astra five-door and Sports Tourer are each available in several equipment lines, only the Edition and Innovation variants are offered for the Astra GTC . As usual, the scope and price of the simplest equipment line varies greatly depending on the country. The prices of the two most extensive equipment lines are identical in each case.

OPC
The sportiest version of the Astra J, the OPC , appeared in the summer of 2012. Like its predecessor, the Astra H OPC, it is based exclusively on the Astra GTC and now has a 2.0-liter turbo engine with direct fuel injection producing 206 kW (280 PS ) and generates a torque of 400 Nm.
The special features of the Astra J OPC include the mechanical multi -disc limited slip differential from Drexler Motorsport known from the Corsa OPC Nürburgring Edition , a 355 Brembo brake system on the front axle, the Flexride sports suspension equipped with shock absorbers from ZF Sachs , the Opel own high-performance bucket seats with AGR - seal of approval and the exclusive exterior.
OPC Cup
In November 2012, Opel announced that it would be holding its own brand cup, the "Astra OPC Cup" , as part of the VLN endurance championship Nürburgring 2013. An Astra J OPC serves as the basis for this, which Kissling-Motorsport professionally builds for the customer teams. In the racing configuration , the vehicle generates around 300 hp and 400 Nm, also has various carbon fiber add-on parts, a 378 performance friction 6-piston brake system, motorsport rims from ATS in the format 9.5 × 18 inches and a lightweight construction -Body shell with integrated safety structure.
landing gear
The special feature of the vehicle is its rear suspension, which is designed as a torsion beam axle with Watt linkage . The additional Watt linkage absorbs the forces acting on the side and thus allows more elasticity where it is required.
Final assembly
Depending on the version, the Opel Astra J was built in the GM plants in Ellesmere Port , UK , and in Gliwice , Poland .
Due to the closure of Opel Bochum, production of the five-door hatchback was relocated from Rüsselsheim to Poland earlier than planned in early 2014 , in order to free up capacity for the Zafira Tourer in Rüsselsheim. The Zafira Tourer was supposed to fill the gap in production in Rüsselsheim. The Astra J was produced in Poland as a five-door and GTC. The Cascada and Astra H Classic were also created there at the same time. The Sports Tourer was assembled in England.

Fuel tank
The fuel tank holds 56 liters in all model variants. The LPG variant has a 48 liter (gross, net approx. 36 l) LPG tank installed.
transmission
Basically, all model variants are delivered with a six-speed gearbox .

The power is transmitted to the front wheels. There were no four-wheel drives.
