The Vauxhall Vivaro Electric has been acclaimed as the ‘Best Medium E-Van’ at the 2024 Business Vans Awards.
The Vauxhall Vivaro Electric has earned the title of ‘Best Medium E-Van’ at the Business Vans Awards. This is due to its competitive pricing and impressive range. Additionally, Vauxhall’s Combo Electric achieved notable recognition in the ‘Best Small E-Van’ category, further solidifying the brand’s success. The vans are part of Vauxhall’s new range of electric LCVs.
The Business Van Awards, a well-established event spanning 12 years, hold significant importance for SMEs, Van Users, and Operators. Judged by an independent panel of automotive experts and members of the Business Vans editorial team, these awards are a highly regarded reference in the commercial vehicle industry.
Chris Wright, Editor at Business Vans, commended the Vauxhall Vivaro Electric:
“We believe the Vauxhall Vivaro Electric is one of the best electric vans currently for sale in the UK, capable of traveling further than any other in its class on a single charge. It’s also very competitive on price versus its rivals.”
James Taylor, Managing Director at Vauxhall, emphasised the Vivaro Electric’s leading position as the UK’s best-selling electric van in 2023:
“The Vivaro Electric is at the forefront of our efforts to electrify Britain’s businesses. Its success at the Business Vans Awards is testament to its popularity with industry experts and customers alike. Following the announcement that limited production of the Vivaro Electric will begin at our Luton plant from the first half of 2025, it’s fantastic to see the model add to its long list of accolades.”
This comes soon after Vauxhall’s entire electric LCV range has recently undergone significant upgrades, and substantial price reductions compared to their predecessors. The new Vauxhall Vivaro Electric, equipped with a 75kWh battery paired with a 136PS electric motor, boasts an impressive range of up to 217 miles (WLTP), with rapid charging capabilities, reinforcing its position at the forefront of electric van innovation.
With the recent announcement of the commencement of Vivaro Electric production at the Luton factory and the successful initiation of electric van production at Ellesmere Port in 2023, Vauxhall is actively contributing to the growth of electric vehicle manufacturing in the UK.
