FREE YOUR SPIRIT
This brochure covers Astra GTC Sport and SRi models only. Some of the images illustrate options and accessories
available at extra cost. And not all of the features described are available on both models. Due to the limitations of
the printing process, the colours reproduced throughout this brochure may vary slightly from the actual paint colour.
As a result, they should be used as a guide only. Your Opel dealer has a comprehensive display of our paint samples.

DRIVE YOUR EMOTIONS
Bold. Pure. Iconic. Astra GTC puts passion high on the agenda. Its stunning,
coupé-like profile and distinctive, blade-inspired lines speak volumes about
Opel’s design philosophy. With dramatic styling cues. And a poised, muscular
stance, set off by signature lighting. In short: a clear declaration of sporting
intent. And presence to die for.

ENERGISE YOUR SENSES
The Astra GTC’s pure and overtly sporting exterior receives a powerful echo
throughout the interior’s strong lines, with defined textures, unique Astra GTC
sports detailing and unashamedly proud contours. Premium quality design
cues combine with advanced features to create a sporty yet spacious driving
environment guaranteed to invigorate your whole driving experience.

SHARPEN YOUR
RESPONSES
Astra GTC: beautifully balanced, above and below the skin. With a bespoke sports
chassis together with HiPerStrut (High Performance Strut) front suspension and
Watt’s link rear set-up. The HiPerStrut system improves grip and allows more power
to be applied during cornering, significantly reducing torque steer; the Watt’s link
reduces lateral movement at high speed for a smooth and stable ride.
Optional FlexRide Adds even greater precision to the Astra GTC driving experience.
Just the mere touch of a button changes the whole driving dynamic to taut sporting
excitement or relaxed long distance cruising. See page 11 for more detail.

EXPLOIT YOUR AGILITY Poised, engaging and precise, the Astra GTC chassis establishes
the agile, spirited feel that characterises the car as a whole.
Better still, the suspension has been carefully tuned to suit the
specific demands of most road surfaces, using specialist input
from renowned chassis experts.
