Vauxhall gives Auto Express the tour of its new MK7 Astra hatch - set to go on sale in November 2015, priced from £15,295

First impressions are good. While it's still unmistakably Astra, it's been transformed from a mundane family hatchback into a desirable and stylish compact exec. The new car gets a redesigned front-end, new LED matrix headlamps and sportier profile. Those LED lamps are a Vauxhall first, and constantly adapt to every traffic situation using a front-mounted camera to adjust the beam for other vehicles or pedestrians.

The new Astra offers On_Star, along with a standard seven-inch touchscreen or a larger optional eight-inch unit for upper spec models. Android Auto and Apple Car Play come as standard, as well.
