l’idea del montante c potrebbe essere buona, ma l’esecuzione imho è troppo tormentata e poco pulita.

L'ho detto io che saltava fuori un incidente lì.

"... guarda la libidine sarebbe per il si, ma il pilota dopo il gran premio ha bisogno il suo descanso... e poi è scattata la regola numero due: perlustrazione del pueblo e ricerca de los amigos... ah Ivana, mi raccomando il panta nell'armadio, il pantalone bello diritto. E un po' d'ordine in stanza... see you later!" (Il Dogui, Vacanze di Natale)

Pressappoco un incidente tipo quello occorso ai designer della Lancia Ypsilon III serie.

Però sia in quel caso che (forse) in questo il risultato non è malvagio

La rivista si sbilancia anche sulle motorizzazioni, annunciando la seguente possibile disponibilita:

Tra i benzina tre turbo, il 1.0 a tre cilindri da 105 CV e il 1.4 e il 1.6 a quattro cilindri rispettivamente da 145 e 200 CV.

Nel campo dei diesel la farebbe da padrone il recente 1.6 CDTI declinato in tre potenze (95, 140 e 170 CV).

Interessanti i 200 Pony :ammic:

Spero reggano il confronto con performance col 1.8 TSI della Leon (180CV, preso in prestito dall'A3) e che bevano meno del precedente 1.6T da 180 CV :si:

Press Release:

  • 11th generation Opel compact car to star at Frankfurt Motor Show in September
  • Opel Group CEO Dr. Neumann promises an efficient, lightweight and spacious car

Rüsselsheim. Continuing an eight-decade long tradition of Opel compact models, Opel Group CEO Dr. Karl-Thomas Neumann will unveil the all-new Astra at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt (September 17 to 27, 2015). Currently, only fully camouflaged engineering development prototypes can be seen, but Dr. Neumann promises that the new Astra will feature “an awesome design”, highest efficiency and an abundance of innovations.

Dr. Neumann has set new development priorities for this 11th generation Opel compact car that has been created from a white sheet of paper, resulting in a revolutionary car that is much more efficient in all respects (

). Space is used in an efficient way: while its exterior dimensions will be reduced, the space devoted to the new Astra’s occupants in its cockpit will be increased substantially. The engineering teams in charge of the development of the new Astra have also dramatically reduced its weight. This will make it more agile and have an extremely favorable impact on its fuel consumption. Dr. Neumann also confirmed that, as the result of the greatest powertrain offensive in Opel’s history, the new Astra will be powered only by state-of-the-art engines of the new generation.

The compact models Kadett and Astra, of which more than 24 million have been produced so far, have been the core of Opel’s portfolio ever since the first compact vehicle drove off the assembly line. “With each Kadett generation, Opel made individual mobility accessible to millions of people around the world, and several generations of Astra have brought innovative technologies from the upper class into the affordable compact segment,” said Dr. Neumann. “Each generation has raised the bar in safety, comfort and efficiency. The new Astra will once again set standards in the compact class. Amongst others, it will be the first new Opel model to be launched with Opel OnStar’s unique connected service that is ready to help and rescue you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.”

What is it?:

More than a quarter of all British motorists have owned a Vauxhall Astra or have had one as a company car. Okay, you could probably say the same about a Ford Escort/Focus, but it means the next version is a significant car for Vauxhall and one the company would like to get right.

That’s the reason, then, that this new Astra prototype, mostly developed in Germany by Opel, is being driven, disguised, around Bedfordshire. More Astras are sold in the UK than anywhere else and, according to GM Europe’s engineers, if a car’s chassis works here, it’ll work anywhere - at least, up to 60mph; for development above that speed you’ll want Germany.

No Vauxhall or Opel, then, is signed off without beating the back lanes of Bedfordshire (which is near Vauxhall’s Luton HQ and its small facility within Millbrook Proving Ground) and Wales (which isn’t).

Currently, that Vauxhall is the 11th generation Astra, which we’ll drive in production form this autumn and which is a huge step-change over its predecessor. It sits on GM’s D2 architecture, which places lightness at the heart of everything.

The new Astra is 49mm shorter, 26mm lower and has a 23mm shorter wheelbase than the car it replaces. That helps make the new car at least 120kg lighter than its predecessor. Vauxhall says that’s a genuine like-for-like ‘at least’ claim, too. Fudge the maths, like some car makers, and you’ll find that a next-gen 1.6 diesel auto will be lighter than a current 2.0-litre of the same power by the order of 200kg.

How else has Vauxhall achieved that drastic reduction in weight? By using materials more smartly but improving manufacturing processes, and by optimising everything, everywhere.

For example, there’s no possibility of it being fitted with Vauxhall's advanced HiPer strut front suspension. The front suspension subframe is now attached to the chassis rigidly, rather than via bushes. There’s only room for a range of small engines. Manufacturing processes have been improved and parts on this car won’t have to double up on the next Zafira or other models.

In short, it’s less over-engineered than before. That the body-in-white is 21% lighter means that wheels, tyres and brakes are all now smaller, too.

What's it like?:

Despite the decrease in exterior size, Vauxhall reckons the new Astra's interior dimensions are up. I reckon so, too, after setting up a standard me-behind-my-driving-position test in the rear. With around four inches of spare kneeroom, and the same above my head, I’d estimate that only a Skoda Octavia matches it in the class.

In the front, things are as heavily disguised as they are on the outside. Covers are draped across all surfaces – even the instrument panel’s obscured from anything other than the driver’s seat – and peeking underneath, you’ll find fit and finish are pretty far removed from production.

No matter, the driving position is okay, the gearshift action smooth and within 50 metres of setting off you can feel that this Astra – a 1.4 turbo petrol – is much lighter than the last one, an example of which Vauxhall has brought along for a back-to-back.

Instead of the current Astra’s muted and mature but occasionally heavy ride, which lags before settling over crests, the new car scoots along with much more positivity and agility. A new 1.4-litre turbo, now with direct injection so making 5bhp more than currently, makes light work of it.

Vauxhall has retained a torsion beam with a Watt’s linkage, which is not a bad thing. Yes, it’s cheaper than four-link rear suspension but tuned well, Vauxhall thinks it can be just as effective. Here, coupled with the bushless front subframe, there’s a little patter to the secondary ride but nothing to get worked up about.

The steering’s lighter and more positive than in the current Astra; well weighted, with good speed and fine accuracy. It feels fairly natural, if lacking the outright engagement that you get from a Ford Focus’s rack. It’s a bit more like a Volkswagen Golf’s, in that respect: smooth and natural, if not aimed at the enthusiast.

Ditto the handling, one suspects. That there’s a clear agility to the Astra makes it entertaining in itself, but it doesn’t feel tuned, as a Focus is, to go out of its way to please you; nor, as a Golf is, to isolate you from the world.

Should I buy one?:

Maybe, though it’ll take a full test of a production one to say just how far up the scale the new Astra is, compared with its rivals. What is certain is that it has a likeable and positive character of its own. And the weight loss can only be a good thing.

Astra K sarà più piccola ma più spaziosa e decisamente più leggera rispetto alla J.

Autocar ci da anche dei dati, confermando 49 mm in meno di lunghezza, 26 mm in meno di altezza e i 23 mm in meno di passo; la diminuzione di peso si dovrebbe invece attestare intorno ai 120 kg che sale sui 200 kg se equipaggiata con il 1.6 CDTI in luogo dell'attuale 2.0.

--------

Non ci sarà spazio (letteralmente) per motori di grande cubatura.

All'interno è effettivamente più spaziosa rispetto al passato, nonostante si sia rimpicciolita, tanto che il giornalista afferma che l'unica a starle davanti è al momento Octavia.
