The commercial drift of the automotive sector has meant that many segments are no longer available. I don't know if you missed him, but the one of the cabrio or cabrio coupe He is one of those who, to our sorrow, has fallen into more than dark ostracism. Be that as it may, the houses no longer want them, mainly because they are not attractive and they no longer generate the same money as before. But seeing the Opel Astra GSe Cabrio that has created X-Tomi Design makes us doubt
Yes because the niche of the coupé cabrio or cabrios (just dry) has been one of the most exclusive. What's more, an endless number of firms that wanted to climb positions in the collective imagination have chosen, at some time, to offer cars of this type in their ranges. Well, with him Opel Astra GSe Convertible painted by X-Tomi Design more than one might think that it will be like this. The fact is that without wanting to hurt, we are sorry to say that more than one will shed a tear...
The chances of you seeing an Opel Astra GSe Cabrio are so low, forget about it…
As you know, Opel has rescued the initials GSe from oblivion. They no longer mean the same as before since their traditional name has now become «Grand Sport electric». Be that as it may, they can be considered as the sports "version" of the model in which they are present. At least it will be like this until its entire range is one hundred percent electric, so when that is the case, we do not know if they will continue to be active or will change again.
The first model with which GSe came back to life was the Astra and that is why X-Tomi Design has created the render of this interesting model. In previous iterations there were already cabrio and coupé cabrio versions but since the "J" generation we have not had the pleasure of having such a version. Although we cannot ignore that in this case, it was called "Cabrio" to avoid the name "Cascade" that it did have in other regions...
However, X-Tomi Design has shaped this Astra GSe Cabrio based on a promotional image. Opel "gave it" to us with the presentation of the model and this designer has worked on it, mainly for remove from view the roof next to the “B” and “C” pillars. It has also "charged" the rear doors and the handles to open them as well as some "loose" tension line. The pity is that there are no renders of what the rear might look like.
In summary, if after seeing this you are willing to assume that this Astra GSe Cabrio is more cool than an SUV, you should know that no, you are not wrong. just that the brands are not going to take the necessary step to remedy the "evil" that the SUVs are leaving us. A very big shame...
