    The Astra R+ sits above the entry R in the Astra hatch range, but beneath the RS. The R+ lists for $22,740 if you’d like it with manual gearbox while the R+ with the automatic transmission is $1000 more.

    The R+ is in every way the same car as the $21,490 entry grade R but with one major difference: it comes with an advanced safety equipment package.

    Is it worth paying the extra $1250 over the R for the R+? Absolutely. The package adds city AEB, lane keeping assistance, a forward distance indicator and collision warning.

    Being identical in every other way to the R the R+ comes standard with a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, digital radio, Bluetooth connectivity,  a reversing camera, rear parking sensors and 17-inch alloy wheels.

    There are two engines in the Astra line-up, but the R+ gets the smaller of them – the 1.4-litre four cylinder which makes 110kW/245Nm with the six-speed manual and 110kW/240Nm with the six-speed auto.

    The combined average fuel consumption for both the manual and auto is 5.8L/100km.
