New Astra ecoFLEX
Vauxhall is introducing an ecoFLEX model to the Astra range promising low CO2 emission of 109g/km and 67.3 combined mpg. The Astra ecoFLEX hatchback will be the first range to get the new improved 1.3 CDTi 95PS diesel engine which has recently been seen in the new Corsa.
The diesel engine is paired with a five-speed transmission, with new gear ratios to offer improved fuel economy and it also features a Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This model is also going to be available in the five-door SRi model as well, thereby offering sporty looks and great economy and is also available in the standard S, Exclusiv and SE trims. With its low CO2 and great fuel economy it is bound to be a favourite with fleet company car drivers.
