Electric Vauxhall Vivaro van to be launched next year

Vauxhall will launch an electric version of its Vivaro next year, which will have a range of between 125 and 185 miles.

With the Vivaro-e, customers will have a choice between two battery sizes, depending on their needs. The 50kWh battery provides a range of up to 125 miles, while the 75kWh offers at least 185 miles (according to WLTP).

“For nearly two decades, the Vivaro has proven itself as a popular choice for moving goods and passengers alike,” said Richard Hughes, Vauxhall’s LCV Director. “Now, with emissions-free transport and deliveries becoming increasingly important in urban areas, the demand for purely electric light commercial vehicles is increasing accordingly. From small businesses and to large fleets, the all-new Vauxhall Vivaro-e is set to carry British business.”

Next year, the Mokka X successor will be added to Vauxhall’s electric line-up. Electric variants of the Combo and Combo Life, along with an electric version of the Vivaro Life, will be added in 2021.
