- On October 12, 2026, Opel unveiled the STX Concept at the Paris Motor Show, presenting a fully electric, all-wheel-drive estate that previews future design language for the Astra Sports Tourer.
- Opel highlights its estate heritage dating back to the 1953 Opel Olympia Rekord Caravan, positioning the STX as a bold attempt to maintain the traditional wagon segment despite the industry's shift toward SUVs.
- The STX Concept features an active aerodynamic system with blue-colored diffusers and a top speed of 124 mph, while its 'Painting with Light' interior and 22-inch rims emphasize performance and efficiency.
- While the concept signals a potential design evolution for the Astra Sports Tourer, industry reports suggest these styling cues may debut on an upcoming SUV platform in development.
