Additional Info: Uses a mechanical limited slip differential, which works on the front wheels. In conjunction with the sophisticated HiPerStrut (High Performance Strut), the LSD provides the Astra VXR with exceptional lateral grip and traction through bends. Also included is an adaptive FlexRide system, which features not only a Sport button, but a VXR button, offering drivers the choice of two, more focused stages of damper, throttle and steering control. |
