Vauxhall’s all-new Astra Sports Tourer will debut at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show.
Like its five-door hatch sibling, the Sports Tourer has an all-new lightweight architecture, new design, powertrains and technology and will be built at Ellesmere Port plant.
Volvo will introduce a new luxury sedan next year that will replace its struggling S80 model as the Swedish automaker takes on cars from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi.
Volvo is targeting annual sales of 800,000 vehicles by 2020 and plans to unveil the S80 replacement, the S90, at the Detroit auto show in January.
Nissan has announced the LEAF 30 kWh – an updated Nissan LEAF that gives drivers 155 miles of motoring range, beating all of its competitors in the segment.
This remarkable achievement – one that opens up a new world of opportunity for drivers – is made possible thanks to the introduction of a new 30kWh battery with revised internal components to significantly broaden the LEAF’s appeal.
The LEAF’s new 30kWh battery delivers a longer range with no compromise on internal packaging.
Available on Acenta and Tekna trim grades, it has exactly the same exterior dimensions as existing 24kWh unit and only a modest 21 kg increase in weight.
The new higher power series LEAF Acenta costs from £24,490, or £300 more with a solar cell and £25,640 for a model with a 6KW charger.
