Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer specification
Vauxhall has revealed the specification of the new British-built Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer ahead of its UK launch.
The Sports Tourer will be the second model in the new Astra range – which has sold over 28,000 units since December – and will be built at the company’s Ellesmere Port plant, Cheshire.
An array of petrol engines will be offered and will include power ratings of 100bhp, 114bhp and 138bhp. The most potent petrol engine will deliver 45.6mpg and emit 145g/km of CO2.
Three diesel powertrains will also be made available in the form of two 1.7 litre engines – 109bhp and 124bhp – as well as a more powerful 158bhp 2.0 litre CDTi option. The 2.0 litre diesel has a combined fuel economy of 55.4mpg and will emit 134g/km of CO2.
The new Sports Tourer will feature start/stop technology for the first time as well as the popular bespoke steering settings from the hatchback.
The Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer will make its debut at the Paris Motor Show in September and hit UK showrooms by the end of the year.
