Vauxhall Movano Hydrogen coming in Spring 2025

Vauxhall has announced full pricing and specification for the Movano Hydrogen, which has its orders opening in Spring 2025.

With a range of 311 miles (WLTP), the Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell, rated at 45kW maximum power, is paired with 4 high-pressure cylindrical hydrogen tanks capable of storing 7kg of hydrogen at 700 bar operating pressure.

An 11kWh lithium-ion battery provides support when starting or accelerating. The system enables braking energy to be stored and fed into the battery as electricity via the electric motor working as a generator. The battery can also be re-charged in approximately 90 minutes using an 11kW AC charger.

Like the rest of the Movano range, the Movano Hydrogen is available exclusively in Prime specification. Hydrogen version are equipped with an upgraded multimedia navigation system featuring a 10-inch touchscreen with integrated TomTom® satellite navigation system, Apple CarPlay®/Android Auto™, AM/FM/DAB digital radio, Bluetooth® connectivity, and two USB connections. Drivers can also operate the infotainment system via natural voice control for added convenience. A seven-inch digital instrument cluster provides clear and essential driving information at a glance.

This year, Vauxhall began UK customer trials of the Vivaro Hydrogen, which is already sold in left-hand drive (LHD) markets by Vauxhall’s sister brand, Opel, making it the first commercially available production hydrogen van. A range of companies, including some of the UK’s largest fleets, are taking part in the trial ahead of the UK launch of the Movano HYDROGEN.
