OPEL RELEASES FIRST TEASER IMAGES OF NEW ASTRA

Opel has released teaser images of the new Astra, due for production next year. The best-seller from Germany enjoys a true success story that, together with its predecessor Kadett model, has lasted almost 90 years. Opening the next chapter for the Astra in 2026, the new model is sharper, more technical and even more eye catching than ever before. A new front face Vizor adorns the new model, inspired by the breathtaking high-performance Opel Corsa GSE Vision Gran Turismo concept car.

"For decades, the Astra has stood for what distinguishes Opel: German engineering that combines emotions with proven practicality and top technologies for everyone. The Astra is 'made in Germany' through and through – designed, engineered and made in Rüsselsheim. Now we are taking the next big step with our compact class bestseller: The new Opel Astra and the new Opel Astra Sports Tourer will delight customers with new, even sharper and more precise design highlights as well as innovative technologies. Stay tuned, more details will follow shortly," teased Opel CEO Florian Huettl.

The further developed Opel Vizor gives a first taste of the new Astra. The characteristic brand face will be even slimmer and more precise than before. The Opel Blitz emblem is illuminated for the first time in the history of the Astra, to make the perennial compact class favourite just as recognisable as the top-of-the-line Grandland SUV, the first Opel model to introduce the illuminated Blitz.

Sharp and precise contours are characteristic for the new Astra front. The designers and engineers have also refined the Opel Compass and fitted it with characteristic light strips, as can be seen on the Corsa GSE Vision Gran Turismo. The latest Opel logo badges the rear.

With its sharper appearance and innovative safety and feel-good technologies, the new Astra is now even more modern, attractive and comfortable. In this way, the Astra and Astra Sports Tourer will continue the successful compact class tradition. More information about the new Opel Astra and its world premiere will follow soon.
