Digital radio standard for new Astra

Vauxhall has launched an additional model into its new Astra range, the SXi Digital – the first car in its class to offer DAB digital radio as standard.

The new Astra has a CDC40 infotainment system as standard fitment – which also incorporates a six-CD changer, seven-band graphic equaliser and seven-speaker system.

Imagine the joy of The Hives without hiss, the bliss of Crowded House without crackle and the delight of Bizet without buzz. And it’s only possible with digital radio. Offering many new stations exclusive to DAB as well as old favourites from analogue radio – all in impeccable quality – DAB digital radio is the sound of the future. Even better, there’s no need to spend time tuning into a station, the listener simply chooses from a list on-screen and the job’s done.

DAB has a number of national and local stations now broadcasting.
