Holden’s award winning Astra hatch has quickly become one of Australia’s favourite small cars and now with the launch of the all-new Astra sedan, there is even more reason to take a look at Holden’s iconic small car range.

With a zippy and economical 1.4-litre turbocharged engine and six-speed automatic transmission, the new Astra Sedan packs a punch whether your journey takes you across the city or into the country.

With its Aussie-tuned and tested suspension and steering, it’s comfortable to drive and perfectly at home on local roads.

With Apple CarPlay® and Android® Auto compatibility on a seven-inch Holden MyLink touchscreen, you can be entertained and connected on the road.

Safety is a high priority too with all models featuring six airbags and rear-view camera with rear parking sensors.

The LT and LTZ also have the innovative Holden Eye, which uses a forward facing camera to provide safety features such as Lane Keep Assist, Forward Distance Indicator and Forward Collision Alert systems.

So with all the power, performance, safety and technology needed for a perfect day out, the only question that remains is, where to?

Australia’s capital cities might all be within close proximity of the coast but surrounding all bar Darwin are hills and mountains that make the perfect destination for a hike, a picnic, or casual wander with friends or family.

The Blue Mountains in NSW need little introduction and being just an hour’s drive from the Macarthur region – or even less dep ending on which part you live in – are great for a day trip to experience their majestic beauty.

Whether you take in the view across the Three Sisters, ride the scenic railway into the depths of the Jamison Valley or explore the many historic villages along the way, there’s more than enough to fill a day or weekend.

But wherever you want to go, the new Astra Sedan will get you there safely, in style, and in superb comfort.
