On the outside, the revisions are limited to a new grille design that now gets shutters, and the front and rear bumper are also redesigned. In addition, the Astra also showcases new headlight internals with matrix LED tech available in range-topping trim.

The hatch now is confirmed to have a drag coefficient of 0.26, and that can be attributed to the various underbody improvements. Included in the list are deflector-shaped control arms for the rear axle and new engine compartment cover. The Cd for the wagon version (no longer offered in Australia) too have been reduced to 0.25. Also, both the vehicles are considered to be the most slippery ones in their respective segment.
