Opel’s “reborn” Superboss, the two-litre, turbocharged, 177kW Astra OPC Coupe is creating a storm with Opel lovers nationwide.

High-Performance Compact Sports Car with Great Looks:

- 177 kW/240 hp 2.0-liter turbo engine with 320 Nm torque
- IDSPlus with CDC electronic damping control as standard
- Zero – 100 km/h acceleration in 6.4 seconds, top speed 244 km/h

A fast start for a fast car: “Astra High Performance Concept” was the name of the attention-getting study Opel presented at the 2004 Paris Motor Show to demonstrate how an OPC version of the three-door Astra GTC could look. Only six months later, the production version of the sporty top-of-the-line model made its premiere at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2005. The new Opel Astra OPC can be ordered as from September.

The Astra OPC’s driving dynamics keep the promise made by its eye-catching looks. With acceleration from zero to 100 km/h in 6.4 seconds and a maximum speed of 244 km/h, its driving performance rivals that of a sports car. More info
