PRODUCT INFORMATION

OVERVIEW

Hot on the heels of the recently released, award-winning Astra Hatch comes the all-new Astra Sedan – a truly global car made to suit Australian conditions.

Designed in North America, developed in Europe, manufactured in South Korea and tuned in Australia, Astra Sedan brings an extra dose of comfort and space to Holden’s world-class rejuvenated small car range.

Where Astra Hatch projects a sportier image, Astra Sedan is more mature. Tuned by Holden Engineering at Lang Lang, Astra Sedan boasts a smooth, comfortable ride able to soak up the tram/rail lines, pot holes or unsealed surfaces so often experienced by Aussie drivers, and combined with a direct steering feel, is also able to provide the engaging ‘great to drive’ feel Holden has built its reputation on.

Local tuning is supported by Astra Sedan’s new and frugal all-aluminum, 1.4-litre ECOTEC Direct Injection turbo engine capable of producing up to 110kW of power and 240Nm of torque with a fuel consumption of as little as 5.8L/100km.

Inside Astra Sedan is a treat for drivers with user-friendly technology^ including Advanced Park Assist, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Lane Keep Assist and Remote Start to name just a few. There’s also premium styling cues^ such as heated leather-appointed seats, leather-appointed steering wheel and contrast stitching.

Astra Sedan also boasts a full five star ANCAP safety rating with strong passive safety credentials supported by active safety including the Holden Eye forward facing camera^ facilitating key features including Forward Collision Alert, Forward Distance Indicator and Lane Keep Assist.

Active Safety Features - explained

Forward Collision Alert (FCA) with Head-Up Warning This advanced and active safety system employs the Holden Eye forward facing camera to help drivers avoid front-end collisions.

The system looks for vehicles ahead and alerts drivers via audible and visual warnings in the windscreen and instrument display if they are approaching another vehicle too rapidly and a collision appears to be imminent.

Lane Keep Assist (and Lane Departure Warning) The Holden Eye forward facing camera mounted on the windscreen ahead of the rear view mirror helps to avoid incidents by providing lane departure warnings and, when necessary, gently nudges Astra back into the lane automatically

This practical active safety feature helps to reduce the risk of collision that arise when drivers stray over lane markings unintentionally, or depart a lane without signalling first.

The Lane Departure System is activated by a control on the steering wheel. It may be deactivated by the driver, according to preference and circumstance.

Side Blind Spot Alert Blind Spot Alert operates via ultrasonic sensors located on both sides of the vehicle’s rear fascia/bumper.

The system’s first purpose is to caution drivers when a vehicle enters a specified ‘blind spot’ zone in an adjacent lane. The second imperative is to alert drivers to the danger if an attempt is made to change lanes.

The system ‘looks’ for other vehicles in both rear side blind spots and alerts the driver to their presence via cautionary visual alert in outside rear view mirrors, depending on which side the object is detected.

If the driver indicates to move into that blind zone, the visual alert in the left or right side external mirror will flash.

Advanced Park Assist Standard on Astra Sedan LT and LTZ, Advanced Park Assist uses a combination of sensors integrated into front and rear fascias that sequentially send out ultrasonic waves when the vehicle is driven at low speeds. Once the vehicle passes a space large enough to allow a park, an audible alert will sound, encouraging the driver to select reverse and park. Astra is in control of the steering, while the driver retains control of vehicle movement (forward or backward).

CONNECTIVITY AND INFOTAINMENT New-generation MyLink infotainment system, featuring class leading Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity standard across the entire Astra range (sedan and hatch). Key Features include: • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto • Digital Radio (LT/LTZ) • 7 or 8 Inch colour touchscreens, • Bluetooth hands free and audio streaming • 6 Speaker premium audio • Embedded Sat Nav (LT/LTZ) Be more connected! Phone projection technology projects phone features onto the vehicle’s display, allows drivers to make calls, send and receive messages and listen to music, either from the touchscreen or by voice, via Siri.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ASTRA HATCH AND ASTRA SEDAN

Astra Hatch and Astra Sedan have been developed by GM Europe off the common Delta 2 architecture. Astra Hatch was also designed and built in Europe whereas Astra Sedan is a truly global car, designed in North America and built in South Korea. It’s also had significant Australian tuning work to ensure it rides comfortably over the varied road surfaces in Australia while retaining the direct, responsive steering feel Holden’s are renowned for.

Astra Hatch represents the sporty side of Holden’s small car range while Astra Sedan provides a little more ride comfort and practical space.
