Charging Speed

The Opel Astra Electric has the higher published DC charging figure at 100 kW, which is comparable to the Nissan Micra EV at 100 kW. In practice, that figure only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the published fast-charge window, the Opel Astra Electric is listed at about 30 minutes, roughly matching the Nissan Micra EV. In this case, the headline kW number should not drive the decision by itself.

Range and Efficiency

The Opel Astra Electric has a WLTP rated range of approximately 413 km, which is roughly 5 km more than the Nissan Micra EV at approximately 408 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Nissan Micra EV consumes 158 Wh/km, compared to 161 Wh/km for the Opel Astra Electric. That means the Nissan Micra EV uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Opel Astra Electric has approximately 55.4 kWh of useable battery , while the Nissan Micra EV has approximately 52 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

Both cars show similar published DC fast-charging figures at 100 kW. For road trips, the one with more range between stops may be more practical.

Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Nissan Micra EV is the more efficient choice at 158 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Opel Astra Electric has a WLTP rated range of approximately 413 km, which is roughly 5 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
