Best Holden Hatchbacks

Good little car. Plenty of power and decent fuel economy – Had our 2017 Astra since new. 150,000km so far. After the 150,000kms service it developed a PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) issue. This… Read more

is a $2000 dollar repair!!!! GM developed a rocker cover that has this valve integrated into it!!!

Very expensive repair. In most other vehicles this is a $300 fix. Have heard this can be an issue from 50,000km!!

Not happy GM Engineers!!

as economical as it is powerful. Suburban driving returns 6.8 litres per 100km with the car being used every day as a family workhorse. Clocking over 500 km per week it is easy to drive due to its low centre of gravity and six speed auto gearbox, which has a " Sport " mode. Rear load space ( with seats down ) is over 1600 litres and by any measure this is HUGE. Four tie down hooks keep Charlie the Labrador well away from where he wants to sit - the front of the car . Loads of safety equipment including Autonomous Emergency Braking and Lane Keep Assist along with six airbags give this car a five star safety rating. The wipers and headlights are both automatic and as with most new cars rear vision is not great but this is negated with standard equipped Rear Sensors and Reverse Camera The tech savvy in your family will love the infotainment set up with Digital Radio and includes Apple Car Play & Android Auto. A very stylish car with Alloy wheels and rear spoiler as standard. A side on view shows lines similar to a well known european brand ( poss BMW ? ) From new it comes with a 5 year unlimited km warranty and capped price servicing. Road side assist is for 1 year but extends to 5 years if serviced at a Holden dealership. Due to it being classed a " small " vehicle, insurance and registrations costs are lower.

Best points are its outstanding fuel economy , rear load space and overall low running costs.

It could do with rear vents for the air cond and rear cup holders.

Perfect car – I absolutely love this car! Great space in the boot as it’s a sedan, plus it also has all the extras you might need in your every day driving apart… Read more

from an electric engine. Average fuel consumption is around 5.7-6.5l. Really comfortable, easy to use interface, huge screen and wheels which help you to focus more on the traffic rather than worrying about how to operate what.
