Vauxhall Astra Electric Sports Tourer

This is the estate version of Vauxhall's electric family hatchback, aimed at drivers who want genuine load-carrying space alongside everyday usability. It suits families, dog owners and anyone who regularly needs to fit bulky items in without reaching for a larger SUV. The WLTP range sits around 281 miles, comfortably covering a typical week of driving between charges. Its battery accepts DC rapid charging at up to 100kW, so a motorway stop can add meaningful range in well under an hour. Boot space is generous at 516 litres with the rear seats up, growing substantially further when they are folded down. Performance is unhurried rather than exciting, which suits its character as a calm, easy-to-live-with estate rather than anything sporty.
