Hungarian Olympic champions drive Opel Astra Classic

GM Hungary is providing the members of the Hungarian Olympic team with 50 Astra Classic II models. Selected athletes have the car at their disposal for one year. The promotion is done in cooperation with the Hungarian Athens Club and the K&H Bank.

This partnership also promotes the Astra Classic II, which, being an affordable entry-level model in the lower mid-size segment, is a very important product for Hungary and the Central and Eastern European region.

The Astra Classic II is built in Gliwice, Poland. Opel is the number two brand in Hungary behind local manufacturer, Suzuki. However, Astra has been the segment leader in Hungary since the first locally-built Astra left the assembly line back in 1992.
