The 2026 Opel Astra has undergone a bold transformation, combining striking design, efficient powertrains, and cutting-edge technology to stand out in Europe’s competitive compact car segment.
Sleek and Sporty Exterior Design
The Astra’s new look is defined by a bold visor grille seamlessly integrated with sleek LED matrix headlights, conveying an aggressive, futuristic front. Sculpted aerodynamic lines sweep along the sides, complemented by flush door handles and optional 19-inch alloy wheels that enhance its sporty stance. The rear features slim LED taillights, a subtle spoiler, and a clean layout that completes its modern hatchback profile.
Advanced Digital Cockpit and Comfortable Cabin
Inside, the Astra boasts Opel’s Pure Panel Pro: a large digital cockpit combining a 12-inch instrument cluster and 12-inch infotainment touchscreen. The clean, minimalist interior is rich with premium materials, ambient lighting, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, voice control, and wireless charging. Rear passengers enjoy generous legroom, while the practical 422-liter cargo area expands with a 60/40 split-fold rear seat, making daily use flexible and comfortable.
Efficient and Versatile Powertrains

The electric Astra-e packs a 54 kWh battery yielding around 416 km of range and supports 100 kW DC fast charging, recharging from 20% to 80% in about 25 minutes.
