Opel announced a new version of the Astra GTC, equipped with a panoramic windscreen.
From the outside, the car looks very silly with this windscreen, but passengers inside it are going to have a good time. This panoramic affair gives them a cinematic view of the world, and provides the cabin with more light. In short, it adds to the driving pleasure of this nice little coupe.
Apart from the new Astra GTC, the panoramic windscreen is also now available in the new Zafira Tourer. Opel had used these windscreens on the old Astra with good success, as 18,000 Astra GTC they sold were fitted with this option.
Depending on the equipment variety, Opel offers this optional extra at prices starting at 1.200 Euro.
Since the start of orders in June, the new Astra GTC has been available with a choice of five engines with manual transmissions – four agile gasoline engines with outputs from the 1.4 liter 74 kW/100 hp to the 1.6 turbo with 132 kW/180 hp. Added to those is the 2.0 CDTI Common-Rail turbo diesel engine with 121 kW/165 hp.
