Opel Astra: real-world fuel consumption
Fuel meter readings from 16,580 Opel Astra cars reported in 2024, split by engine.
Excluding plug-in hybrids, the average is 6.0 L/100 km on the road against 5.1 officially (17% above official).
Lowest real-world consumption: Diesel · 77 kW (105 hp) at 5.4 L/100 km.
Every engine: official vs real
| Engine | cars | Official (WLTP) | Real world | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Petrol · 96 kW (131 hp) | 5,145 | 5.5 | 6.5 | +17% |
| Petrol · 81 kW (110 hp) | 2,316 | 5.4 | 6.2 | +15% |
| Petrol · 107 kW (145 hp) | 1,650 | 5.5 | 6.5 | +18% |
| Diesel · 96 kW (131 hp) | 3,095 | 4.9 | 5.5 | +12% |
| Diesel · 90 kW (122 hp) | 1,922 | 4.8 | 5.7 | +19% |
| Diesel · 77 kW (105 hp) | 831 | 4.3 | 5.4 | +23% |
Engines with fewer than 100 cars in the data are not shown. Hybrid includes mild hybrids (48 V) as registered by the manufacturer.
Plug-in hybrid
| Engine | cars | Official (WLTP) | Real world | Electric share | Gap |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plug-in hybrid · 110 kW (150 hp) | 1,468 | 1.1 | 5.3 | 29% | +389% |
| Plug-in hybrid · 132 kW (179 hp) | 100 | 1.1 | 5.8 | 25% | +409% |
The official WLTP figure for plug-in hybrids assumes a share of electric driving based on range. When cars are charged less often than assumed, real consumption is far higher.
By reporting year
| cars | Real world | |
|---|---|---|
| 2021 | 674 | 6.0 |
| 2022 | 4,681 | 5.9 |
| 2023 | 7,026 | 5.9 |
| 2024 | 15,010 | 6.0 |
The same cars are reported again each year with their lifetime totals, so years are not added together.
