The Opel Astra is very good value for money. The engine performance is very good, but it could have more features. I also think and hope next Opel Astra will be bigger.

What I like
I like that Opel has put a lot of thinking into the car. For example, the windows are big and airy.

What I do not like
I do not like the fact that the interior space is quite small.

Review
The drive is seamlessly and the power delivery is linear in a very pleasant way. Noticed a significant and exceptional performance between 2000-3000rpm as the power keeps creeping in to 100km/hr! The Astra is punchy and easy going as a daily work horse due to its riding comfort. This car does perform at its best when it is driven with the correct technique on its throttle, just hold your foot within the sweet spot of 2500-3000rpm if you need that extra boost and you'll have a smile on your face. Excessive acceleration for this car does not do justice in my opinion.

What I like
Punchy engine, Sporty note, Seamless gear change, Comfortable ride, Sporty design and a bang for buck.

What I do not like
Can do better with sportier tires and maybe augmented sound system.

Having test driven the Opel Astra on 23/02/2021, I've had an eye-opening experience. The CVT Gearbox which Opel calls "Stepless" Does shift at red line, as well as provide seamless acceleration. The gearbox itself uses a chain belt compared to steel belts found on Nissan's X-Tronic CVT, Toyota's or even Honda's. No slip is felt when flooring the car. The car itself feels light and nimble on its feet, especially for a car this heavy and with a "Sluggish" And poor power efficiency gearbox. Acceleration from a standing start is very good, 0-100km/h is actually a whole 1.5 seconds faster than it is on paper. Overtaking and speed pick up is very prominent, though the engine drone is to be expected while driving this with a CVT. Even while erratically driving, my fiancee can fall asleep in the back, which proves that the ride quality is very much superior to that of a SEAT Leon. Interior quality feels cheap, plasticky, but that is to be expected. Especially in this challenging time, plasticky interiors are good as cleaning and sterilising the inside of this car is much more easier compared to soft-touch. Rear Aircon is non-existent, and provided with leather seats, it is very hot especially in the rear. Parking brake is electronic, but doesn't have auto-hold. The Autonomous parking feature is a good-to-have feature if you are not confident in parallel parking.

What I like
Powerful 1.4L 3-Cylinder Engine

Excellent pricetag for a CAT B vehicle

Insanely low CO2 emissions for such a big engine that produces just as much power as a VW's 1.4L TSI engine.

CVT Gearbox is chain driven, no slip, no delays in power delivery

Strong pick up

Autonomous parking feature

What I do not like
Blind Spot Monitoring seldomly works

Does not have auto-hold function

No space-saver spare tyre or tyre repair kit in the boot.

Minimalist boot

Review

What I like

What I do not like
None

Review
This car is a direct competitor to the Volkswagen golf, Audi A3 HB, Seat Leon and maybe Volvo V40. In terms of engine power to price ratio, the Astra definitely beats all of them with its punchy 1.4 turbo. Owned the car for about 4 months and it still drives and feels like when I just collected it. Interior is a tad bit dull compared to its European counterparts but would still easily outclass jap/kor cars. Hope to see more of it on the road!

What I like
- punchy engine
- stylish exterior
- reliable drive
- great handling

What I do not like
- some minor rattling noise from door panels
- rear seats do not fold completely flat
- no sports mode
- no paddle shifters

Review
I decided on this sub 100k car after searching for 7 months. After driving it for 4 months , I can say for the price I paid , it is fantastic.
It is flushed full of safety features and creature comforts.

What I like
Fantastic acceleration and superbly comfortable seats. Spacious backseat. And an unbeatable price compared to the conventional Japanese cars. Very solid feel to the car

What I do not like
The easytronic takes time to get used to

Review
I have been driving the Astra 1.4T HB for 8 months now so it's time to give review.
I already have 13100 km on my odometer.

The car is very stable at high speeds and have driven up north 3 times already, each trip is about 800 km each. Overtaking at 150 km/h is a breeze and the car does not even work up a sweat at all. The 6 speed AT is silky smooth.

The driver's seat is comfortable and I don't even feel fatigue after a long drive.

Many other features such as Lane Departure Warning, Collision Alert, Auto Start-Stop, Auto headlights and TPMS are standard in this car.

What I like
Rear legroom is good.
Stable at very high speed (At more than 150 km/h).
Styling and external design.

What I do not like
The rims are difficult to clean.
Occasional rattling at the front speaker door panel.

Review
What sold me about the Astra is its features from electric tailgate, lane departure assist, emergency brake warnings and assist (saved me on a few occasions) and android and apple car play.

After I researched European owners for their feedback, I am generally please that the car after a year then on the market is generally trouble free.
Further testimony from a close friend who had 4 Opel before and the longest lasting 7 years before he sold, told me normal wear and tear and no breakdowns or gear box issues at all.

Its been almost a year since i own the car and I must say that we are enjoying its ride each day more than the other.

What I like
features
good fuel consumption
price

What I do not like
The sports rims

Review
Owned the 1.4T HB for about 3 months. I must say rear space is good as compared to other similar class car.. Comes with safety features at affordable price.. Ride is good at 90 KM/H onwards.... Acceleration is fast even though some turbo lag can be felt... No major break-down so far.. Unfortunately, the car is plagued with unreliable electronics and incompetent service centre.

Head light refused to turn off after coming out from MSCP or tunnel under bright day under auto headlight mode... Wipers will sometime wipe at insane speed using Auto Rain Sensor. Brake is noisy when you put the car to a stop and moving off..

Overall, Astra K is a good buy since the price is affordable but potential buyers be warned, you have to prepare to bear with minor annoyance here and there..

What I like
- Good safety features at affordable price.
- Good rear passenger space.
- Good FC.

What I do not like
- Interior build is miserable.
- A lots of rattle noise.
- Auto Head Light and Rain sensors working intermittently
- Noisy Brake

Review
Got myself an astra 1 litre and have been impressed and happy so far.
Despite its small engine, it is nippy and had enough torque to pull away from traffic, especially in manual mode.
Features are aplenty such as lane assist, tpms, collision system, start stop, cruise control, park assist etc.
Petrol consumption is good. For my first full tank, I travelled 700km before topping up 44litres of petrol which averages about 16 l/km. Considering the many times I was idling so as to change the vehicle settings, I believe it will only get better.
Only worry is reliability but as Opel is offering 5 years warranty, I am more or less at ease.
MTA gear box needs getting used to especially for those who doesn't drive manual, but once you get the hang of it, it is really fun.

What I like
1) safety features such as lane assist, collision system etc.
2) nippy and torquey engine, cannot believe it is 1 litre only.
3) good fuel consumption with 70% highway and 30% city and achieving 16 l/km for my first tank.
4) 5 years unlimited milage warranty.
5) 4th and 5th years servicing capped at $800. Sometimes got free 5 years servicing during roadshow.

What I do not like
1) start stop.
2) 5 gears only.
3) no paddle shift.

Review
Great for driving and unbelievable power you will never believe it is 1 liter... If you easy on the Accelerator it can go easily 650km on Singapore roads ( Mixed ) If to KL and Back max used 3/4 tank from Tuas to Tuas..
Only issue is when it rains its hard to control the mist on the windscreen... Even thou you follow the steps on the manual!
Other then that great car... Hope its like this for 10 years..
only in Ubi to service can be troublesome... Hope they shift to Leng Kee soon.

What I like
looks and also the safety and petrol savings

What I do not like
when it rains its hard to control the mist on the windscreen...
The model should have the sharks fin on the top and head lights should be white Led...

Review
Went to test drive the 1.0 litre Astra with a semi-auto gearbox - first of a few small cars I plan to test drive and short list for her to consider for replacement of the current 9 year old Astra GTC. This new Astra feels smaller than the model we have and with a 3 cylinder engine, it does feel strained. The exterior design is cool and the interiro materials much better then before. Great safety features and Apple play is a plus but the screen is small. The semi-auto gearbox is jerky and unnerving with almost like a rubber banding effect of the old type CVT's. The manual mode was fussy to use and engaging the reverse gear by mistake can be a problem. I think the 1.4T full auto would be a better drive. This is personal as there will be those who prefer this manual like feel especially in Europe. The ride was well damped but the rear seats were rather cramp according to my better half. Overall I decided to shortlisted this car for her to try out in the 1.4T version as the safety features are good.

What I like
Safety and cool looks. Good interior materials.
Good value for 93+ K
Low road tax and fuel efficiency

What I do not like
Cramp rear seats but adequate boot.
Jerky semi -auto box
3 cylinder engine straining away occassionally detected and heard.

Review
Terrible after sales service. Astra has many issues. I had to send in my car many times & yet they couldn't find the root cause of the problem. Spoke to the person in charge who is not receptive, arrogant & defensive. Karl-Thomas Neumann https://www.Facebook.Com/mtbarra/?Ref=page_internal Opel Singapore

What I do not like
After sales service

Review
Small yet have power for the 1,000cc. Good value for money and fuel consumption for long term usage.

What I like
Compact, low CO2 emmision.

Review
Just like many other drivers out there, the brand name OPEL seems alien and that its never a topic that fellow drivers will even discuss about it or ever felt its presence on our roads.

That, however, it is going to be changed forever with this new ASTRA.

Before stepping into the showroom, I placed all my other perceptions at the doorstep and I was really pleasantly surprised by its build and design. The dashboard is well though out and with none of the strange bits that is found in some popular cars. I had a test drive in the usual route at Ubi and its smashes all other experiences that I had with other asian car brand. The engine revs smoothly and the oomph is just perfect without the usual breathlessness yo will find in some cars these days.

This 1.4T Astra has just snatched a top 3 position of the car that I will replace my 9 year old car.... Its that good.

What I like
The Drive: The 1.4T works like a charm!

The Interior: Design and quality on par with the popular german car brand

Safety Features: A LOT

Technology: Apple CarPlay and Android Auto... enuff said.

What I do not like
Steering Column: Seems a bit too close to my body.

Vision: The back window is a tad small.

Power Seats: Not available
