Features
Ergonomic sports seats.
New Astra’s orthopaedic
ergonomic sports front
seats adjust to suit your
posture – perfectly.
They feature superior side support and
an extendable seat cushion, plus on the
driver’s seat only, tilt adjustment and
electric lumbar support. Standard on
Elite models with perforated leather
facings, and optional on all other models
with Lace cloth trim (except Expression
and ES), the driver’s seat has won the
coveted AGR* seal of approval for
helping to prevent the in-car back pain
and tension suffered by some car
occupants. The ergonomic sports seats
package also includes a fold-down rear
seat centre armrest with load-through
facility and centre head restraint.
* Aktion Gesunder Rücken e.V (AGR) is an independent
panel of ergonomics experts and doctors based in Germany.

From the new Astra’s driving seat, the world is an altogether calmer, more comfortable
place. There’s space, comfort and stowage for every passenger. New levels of interior
style and quality combine with intuitive ergonomics that put you in total control. And
the interior attention to detail borders on the obsessive. Special emphasis has gone
into the design and engineering of new Astra’s front seats, which now boast industry
leading levels of adjustment. The driver’s seat height can be raised by up to 65mm,
while both front seats fore-and-aft range extend to 280mm to ensure a better seating
position for all. Whichever way you look at it, new Astra is a very special space to sit.
