The Opel Astra Cabrio is a cabriolet designed by Opel and built since 2001 by Italian coachbuilder Bertone. The Astra Cabrio is badged Opel in Germany and The Republic of Ireland, Vauxhall in the United Kingdom, and Holden in Australia. The Cabrio was built by Bertone for General Motors alongside its Coupé variant. The MK4 Astra Cabrio has been replaced in 2006 by the Opel Astra TwinTop.

The cabrio is the most desirable in the MK4 Astra line up due to its immensely popular electrically retracting canvas roof which raises and lowers in just 30 seconds. The Coupé ceased production last year (2004) but the Cabrio is still in production to the present day. The Astra Cabrio flagship model has xenon HID headlamps, leather upolstery and satellite navigation.
