Compare the Vauxhall Astra vs Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two Vauxhall models largely comes down to estate versus hatchback practicalities. The Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer is longer than the Vauxhall Astra, giving it a bigger boot with the seats up as well as more room with the back seats folded. Both share familiar family traits inside and on the move. Taller passengers will find legroom a little tight in the back of either car, and their infotainment systems can see you getting lost in menus looking for specific features. Around town, both cars feature light steering that makes low-speed driving easy, though selecting sport mode makes the helm overly heavy in each. If you opt for the plug-in hybrid powertrain, both models manage a smooth switch between all-electric driving and petrol power.
