Right now, we have two plug-in hybrids. The first is the Hybrid 180, which will go up against plug-in hybrid versions of the Peugeot 308 SW, and SEAT Leon Estate, while the sportier GSe (Grand Sport Electric) version will go up against the Cupra Leon Estate.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Then there\u2019s the petrol-powered 1.2-litre Astra Sports Tourer, which is likely to be the volume seller. It\u2019ll compete against similarly powered rivals, from the Ford Focus Estate, Kia Ceed Sportswagon, the already mentioned 308 SW and Leon Estate, Skoda Octavia Estate, Toyota Corolla Touring Sports, and the Volkswagen Golf Estate. This version of Astra Sports Tourer will have a choice of either 109bhp or 128bhp power outputs, and comes with a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. An optional eight-speed automatic transmission is available for the more powerful version.<\/p>\n<p>Keeping things simple, the latest Astra Sports Tourer comes with just three trim level options: Design (entry), GS (sporty) and Ultimate (luxury). The petrol Astra Sports Tourer range starts from just over \u00a329,000, putting it at a premium over the Leon and Octavia Estates. Prices for the plug-in hybrid models are much steeper, starting at over \u00a340,000 for a GS-spec model. We don\u2019t know pricing for the Astra Sports Tourer Electric yet, but based on an approximate \u00a32000 premium over the regular hatch for the estate version, we\u2019d anticipate prices to begin at \u00a340,000, and breeze past \u00a345,000 for the top-of-the-range Ultimate.<\/p>\n<h3>Engines, performance and drive<\/h3>\n<li><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"30%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"30%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><\/linearGradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg multi-widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg>The Vauxhall Astra Sport Tourer lineup includes a broad spectrum of petrol, plug-in hybrid, and (soon) all-electric power\n<p>So far, we\u2019ve tried the Astra Sports Tourer in both 1.6 Hybrid 180 and GSe plug-in hybrid versions, but there will also be a regular 1.2-litre petrol as used by its closely-related Peugeot 308 SW sibling. When it comes to its dynamics, the plug-in hybrid Sports Tourer feels pretty similar to other Astras. The steering is light, which helps to give the relatively long and large estate the sort of responsiveness you\u2019d expect of something much smaller around town.<\/p>\n<p>Partnership<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--2ndlamRb--\/v1683626472\/assets\/partners\/powered-by-motorway_150x70.png\">Need to sell your car?Find your best offer from over 5,000+ dealers.

It comes as standard with these wheels, and we wouldn\u2019t suggest choosing the optional 18-inch rims. The Sports Tourer\u2019s ride is fine around town, and is no worse than the 308 SW upon which it\u2019s based, because there\u2019s still plenty of suspension travel to soak up the worst bumps. Head out onto faster B roads, and the high-ish kerbweight of 1,717kg gives the hybrid Sports Tourer a tendency to fidget on rough roads \u2013 and this will only be made worse with larger wheels.<\/p>\n<p>The GSe receives fancier frequency-selective dampers to tighten its responses, and it sits 10mm lower on 11 per cent stiffer springs. As a result, it tends to follow the contours of the road more resolutely than the standard Astra Sports Tourer. The broader operating range of the new dampers means that the ride comfort hasn\u2019t suffered \u2013 although it hasn\u2019t gotten any better, either, because it can still feel jittery over rippled surfaces.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--R0i4J7Jo--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1699875098\/Vauxhall%20Astra%20Sports%20Tourer-22.jpg\"><span>22<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Vauxhall\u2019s positioning within Stellantis means it offers a slightly sportier approach than\u00a0Peugeot. We wouldn\u2019t say the Astra is noticeably more dynamic than a\u00a0Peugeot 308 SW, and nor would we call the \u2018sportier\u2019 GSe something approaching a hot hatch. It weighs even more than the regular car (1,746kg) and feels heavy-handed and unwilling when tackling tight corners. Greedy throttle applications easily overwhelm the front wheels, forcing the driver to dial back the commitment. The Sports Tourer feels more settled at moderate speeds, and its shortcomings as a performance car are easier to accept, given its more practical brief over the hatchback.<\/p>\n<p>The Astra Hybrid 180 powertrain\u2019s throttle response is a little delayed, as are the eight-speed automatic\u2019s shifts, even when you move from \u2018Hybrid\u2019 to \u2018Sport\u2019 mode. Crucially, though, the combination of the petrol engine and electric motor means the PHEV never feels underpowered \u2013 even if the engine does sound stressed in the upper reaches of the rev range if you push it.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s around town in \u2018Electric\u2019 mode where the PHEV feels most impressive. It nips between junctions confidently thanks to its punchy low-speed performance. The electric motor\u2019s assistance helps cover any lethargy in the eight-speed automatic gearbox as it shuffles through its gears. The power sources don&#x27;t always blend seamlessly, though, and it can be challenging to meter out the throttle when pulling away from a standstill. The brake pedal combines motor regeneration with the physical discs and pads, but as with the gearbox and electric motor combination, it results in an inconsistent pedal feel.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Based on our experience with the hatchback, the 1.2-litre petrol with a six-speed manual is the nicest to drive, and we\u2019ll update this section once we\u2019ve gotten behind the wheel of one.<\/p>\n<h2>0-62mph acceleration and top speed<\/h2>\n<p>So far, we\u2019ve driven the 1.6 180 and 1.6 225 GSe plug-in hybrid versions, the quickest of which being the GSe, with a 0-62mph time of 7.5 seconds thanks to its 1.6 petrol and electric motor combination putting out 222bhp and 360Nm of torque. Its top speed is 146mph \u2013 if you can find somewhere legal to do this.<\/p>\n<p>However, the regular 1.6 180 PHEV Astra isn\u2019t much slower. It produces less power at 178bhp but the same amount of torque at 360Nm, enough to accelerate from 0-62mph in 7.7 seconds and hit a top speed of 140mph.<\/p>\n<p>The 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol unit is available in 109bhp or 128bhp forms, with the former managing the same 0-62mph sprint in 10.8 seconds and the latter in 10 seconds for the six-speed manual. Go for the eight-speed automatic with the more powerful 1.2 and it\u2019ll get to 62mph from rest a touch quicker at 9.9 seconds. We haven\u2019t tried this engine in the estate version yet, but we anticipate you\u2019ll want the high-output version if you plan on carrying stuff in the boot.<\/p>\n<p>We don\u2019t know the performance figures for the Astra Sports Tourer Electric, but expect it to manage the 0-62mph sprint in a similar amount of time as the hatchback version, in just over 9.0 seconds.<\/p>\n<h3>MPG, CO2 and Running Costs<\/h3>\n<p><svg class=\"widget-grad\" style=\"position:absolute;z-index:0;width:0;height:0;visibility:hidden\"><defs><\/p>\n<li><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"20%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"20%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><\/linearGradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg multi-widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg>The Vauxhall Astra Sport Tourer petrol is economical, but company car users will want the plug-in hybrid and forthcoming electric versions\n<p>According to Vauxhall, the Astra petrol models with a manual gearbox manage 50.4mpg on the\u00a0WLTP combined cycle, while the automatic version drops this to 49.6mpg.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s fine, but the hybrid Toyota Corolla Touring Sports offers over 60mpg in both 1.8 and 2.0-litre guises. True, the plug-in hybrid models have a WLTP figure of 256mpg, but you\u2019ll need to regularly charge up in order to get anywhere near that in real-world driving.<\/p>\n<p>The petrol Astra Sport Tourer\u2019s CO2 emissions range from 124g\/km to 133g\/km, so business users will be looking at Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) rates of 29 to 31 per cent \u2013 not the most competitive figures in a growing age of electrification where the Corolla Touring Sports is in the 25 per cent band.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, the Astra Sports Tourer has a plug-in hybrid model which can travel up to 42 miles on electric power alone. With CO2 emissions of 23-25g\/km, the PHEV has a much more attractive 8 per cent BIK rating for company car drivers. Unfortunately, the GSe model can\u2019t breach the 40-mile barrier (managing up to 39 miles), so it\u2019s in the higher 12 per cent bracket.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--Xj_PezfR--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1699874550\/Vauxhall%20Astra%20Sports%20Tourer-5.jpg\"><span>22<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Both versions of plug-in hybrid use the same size battery, so recharging its 12.4kWh (10.4kWh usable) battery using a 7kW home wallbox will take around two hours.<\/p>\n<p>An all-electric version will be joining the range soon. Its range hasn\u2019t been announced yet, but expect it to be a little less than the 256 mile range of the hatchback version since it weighs a little bit more. We\u2019d be very surprised if the charging times were altered from the hatch since they\u2019ll be using the same size battery. If you can find a rapid charger capable of supplying 100kWh of charging speed, you should be able to charge from 20 to 80 per cent in less than half an hour. Refilling a flat battery at home using a 7kW wallbox will likely take around eight hours.<\/p>\n<h2>Insurance groups<\/h2>\n<p>Insurance premiums for the Astra Sports Tourer won\u2019t be particularly cheap as even the entry-level 109bhp Design model sits in group 16 (out of 50). The least powerful 123bhp Ford Focus Estate in Titanium trim is one insurance group lower, while the least expensive Kia Ceed Sportswagon is in group 14.<\/p>\n<p>Moving through the Astra Sports Tourer line-up, the 178bhp plug-in hybrid is in group 27, while the most expensive version to insure will be the performance-oriented GSe as it sits in group 31. That\u2019s the same as the much faster and more desirable 316bhp VW Golf R Estate.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>You can get personalised car insurance quotes fast with our <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>comparison tool powered by Quotezone&#8230;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Depreciation<\/h2>\n<p>According to our expert data, the eighth-generation Astra Sports Tourer should hold on to 44-47 per cent of its value after a typical three-year\/36,000-mile ownership period, with the best version being the 1.2 130 GS in manual form.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s on a par with the SEAT Leon Estate, although the Corolla Touring Sports retains around 50 per cent of its value over the same period, with the 2.0-litre GR Sport model the top performer at 54 per cent.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>To get an accurate valuation on a specific model check out our <\/em><\/strong><strong><em>valuation tool&#8230;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Interior, design and technology<\/h3>\n<p><svg class=\"widget-grad\" style=\"position:absolute;z-index:0;width:0;height:0;visibility:hidden\"><defs><\/p>\n<li><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"20%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"20%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><\/linearGradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg multi-widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg>Buyers will be impressed with the Vauxhall Astra\u2019s sharp looks and generous levels of standard kit\n<p>Vauxhall\u2019s new design language emphasises terms like \u2018Bold\u2019 and \u2018Pure\u2019. While we\u2019ll leave you to make your own mind up on the new \u2018Vizor\u2019 grille, there\u2019s no denying it\u2019s a strong departure from the previous-generation car\u2019s design.<\/p>\n<p>The cabin includes plusher materials than before, with soft-touch plastics, and even some Alcantara inserts on the door cards of Ultimate trim models. It\u2019s let down by cheaper plastics on the centre console and lower door cards, which is disappointing, and while the gloss piano black trim looks good when new, it\u2019s easily marked.<\/p>\n<p>The trim structure is made of three regular trims \u2013 Design, GS and Ultimate \u2013 plus the standalone GSe model as the high-performance choice. Entry-level Design is well equipped, but there\u2019s no disguising that the Astra simply looks better in either GS or Ultimate trim, with bigger 17 or 18-inch alloys, a sportier front and rear bumper design and black exterior trim replacing the chrome-effect accents found on the lower-spec model. Tinted rear windows, black badging and a black roof are also standard with GS-specification cars.\u200b<\/p>\n<p>The mid-range GS trim is our pick because, as well as the larger rims, it also includes a 360-degree parking camera system, adaptive cruise control, keyless entry and an upgraded infotainment system. Adaptive LED headlights, a punchier sound system, a head-up display, a panoramic sunroof and wireless smartphone charging are added to the Ultimate trim, but this promotes the Astra&#x27;s price tag to more than \u00a335,000 (up to \u00a343,500 in GSe plug-in hybrid form). The \u2018sportiest\u2019 GSe model has model-specific bumper and alloy wheel designs, and is the only way you can get the most powerful plug-in hybrid engine.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--0QTbqm2S--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1699874964\/Vauxhall%20Astra%20Sports%20Tourer-16.jpg\"><span>22<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Sat-nav, stereo and infotainment<\/h2>\n<p>All Astras feature Vauxhall\u2019s Pure Panel infotainment set-up as standard, but GS and Ultimate spec models receive an upgraded Pure Panel Pro system. Both consist of two 10-inch screens, one covering media functions and the other a digital instrument display providing information for the driver. Wireless\u00a0Android Auto and\u00a0Apple CarPlay are both included, along with a natural voice recognition system that we found to be both intuitive and accurate. However, loading times are a little slow, in our opinion. Plus, we found the auto-dimming of the screens \u2013 which occurs when going through short tunnels \u2013 can make the screen impossible to read for a few seconds.<\/p>\n<p>The dual-screen set-up looks great when fully illuminated, and the Astra\u2019s graphics look sharp. The reversing camera has great definition, too. We also like that Vauxhall has stuck with physical shortcut buttons and climate controls that are easier to use when on the move than touch-sensitive sliders, which have been a real bugbear of the VW Golf.<\/p>\n<p>The head-up display is excellent because it shows key information and isn\u2019t distracting while driving.<em> <\/em>We also found adjusting its position child\u2019s play, using the electric door mirror controls to adjust it to your line of sight.

That makes it 268mm longer than the regular Astra hatchback, although only 57mm of this goes into a longer wheelbase for the estate version.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For context, a Skoda Octavia Estate is longer at 4,689mm, which goes some way into explaining why it offers more space inside.<\/p>\n<h2>Leg room, head room and passenger space<\/h2>\n<p>While room up front is good, passengers travelling in the rear seats will find things a little tighter; there\u2019s a decent amount of headroom, but more legroom would be welcome. Those likely to put tall teens or adults in the back regularly should look at an Octavia Estate instead.<\/p>\n<p>There&#x27;s plenty of room for passenger&#x27;s feet under the front seats, though, and the central hump in the floor is much lower in the Vauxhall than in a Golf.<\/p>\n<p>Two Isofix points are provided on the outer rear seating positions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--1-RTWcHm--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1699874971\/Vauxhall%20Astra%20Sports%20Tourer-14.jpg\"><span>22<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Boot<\/h2>\n<p>Storage space in the Astra estate is, obviously, much more practical than the hatchback. As a plus point, the 40\/20\/40 split folding rear seats offer greater flexibility than rivals like the Ford Focus Estate and VW Golf Estate. However, its 597-litre capacity isn\u2019t the greatest and comes up short of the 640-litres provided by the Octavia Estate.<\/p>\n<p>The plug-in hybrid is slightly compromised compared with petrol models because of the battery pack, with boot space dropping from 597 litres to 516 litres. That\u2019s actually more than you\u2019ll find in plug-in hybrid versions of the SEAT Leon Estate, so it compares with its closest rivals well.<\/p>\n<p>Boot volume measurements for the Astra Sports Tourer Electric haven\u2019t been announced yet, but we expect them to be similar to the figure for the plug-in hybrid. That will still make it much more useful than the rather small boot in the MG5.<\/p>\n<h2>Towing<\/h2>\n<p>The 1.2-litre petrol Astra Sports Tourer with a manual transmission can tow a braked trailer that weighs up to 1,200kg. The same 1.2 equipped with an automatic gearbox has the same towing capacity as the plug-in hybrid and GSe models: 1,400kg.<\/p>\n<p>Those are all competitive numbers, but if you need even more capacity, you\u2019ll be better off with either an Octavia Estate or Golf Estate in 2.0 TDI 150 DSG auto form, because both can lug around a 1,600kg trailer or caravan.<\/p>\n<h3>Reliability and Safety<\/h3>\n<p><svg class=\"widget-grad\" style=\"position:absolute;z-index:0;width:0;height:0;visibility:hidden\"><defs><\/p>\n<li><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-first\" style=\"stop-color:#f9bf23;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"0%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" class=\"stop-color-final\" style=\"stop-color:#D5D4D4;stop-opacity:1\"><\/stop><\/linearGradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg widget-selected\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg><svg viewBox=\"0 0 51 48\" class=\"widget-svg\" style=\"width:22px;height:22px;transition:transform .2s ease-in-out\"><\/path><\/svg>The Vauxhall Astra Sports Tourer has a disappointing four-star Euro NCAP rating; the brand needs to do more to impress owners\n<p>Vauxhall has equipped all Astra Sports Tourer models with lane departure warning and\u00a0lane-keep assist, speed sign recognition, a driver drowsiness alert and autonomous emergency braking (AEB). Adaptive cruise control comes with mid-range GS trim along with a more advanced collision alert system that works at higher speeds, while top-of-the-range Ultimate and GSe add blind spot monitoring and a lane position assist feature.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, the Astra Sports Tourer (just like its Astra hatchback sibling) received a four-star Euro NCAP score. That\u2019s one lower than its Seat Leon Estate, Skoda Octavia Estate, and VW Golf Estate rivals. The safety experts criticised the lack of a central airbag to protect front seat occupants in a side-on collision, and the emergency braking system for its poor response in recognising pedestrians.<\/p>\n<p>While the latest Astra Sports Tourer didn\u2019t feature in the 2023\u00a0Driver Power owner satisfaction survey, the Vauxhall brand ranked 24th out of 32 manufacturers. That puts it above fellow estate car manufacturers VW and Ford, but behind SEAT, Skoda, Toyota, Peugeot, and Kia.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/media.autoexpress.co.uk\/image\/private\/s--r7WVDeJx--\/f_auto,t_content-image-full-mobile@1\/v1699875038\/Vauxhall%20Astra%20Sports%20Tourer-17.jpg\"><span>22<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Warranty<\/h2>\n<p>All Vauxhall cars are covered by a three-year\/60,000-mile warranty, which matches the coverage you get with a Ford Focus Estate or Volkswagen Golf Estate, but lags behind the seven-year warranty offered by\u00a0Kia, or the ten-year warranty package provided by Toyota.<\/p>\n<p>Plug-in hybrid and Astra Sport Tourer Electric models have a separate eight-year or 100,000-mile policy for the battery pack.
