If you’re thinking about ditching diesel, British brand Vauxhall has a variety of accomplished electric vans that will help make the switch an easy and cost effective one for your business. Part of the Stellantis Group, Vauxhall’s commercial vehicle models are some of the best-in-class.
Key highlights
Vauxhall is one of few manufacturers offering fleets and businesses a fully electric van across its entire line-up. The company was also the UK’s best-selling electric Light Commercial Vehicle (e-LCV) manufacturer in 2022, the second year in a row the brand has topped the charts.
EVs and Vauxhall
Vauxhall recently rebranded its electric commercial vehicle range, replacing a simple ‘e’ moniker with the more obvious ‘Electric’ label. Now, nobody will be in any doubt as to how your model is powered.
Top models
It’s fair to say the Vivaro Electric (and its French cousins the Citroen e-Dispatch and Peugeot e-Expert) have been game changing for the medium-sized electric van category. It was the first model to offer a competitive payload and driving range in excess of 200 miles, and to do so in an affordable package. Despite multiple rivals now challenging this space, the Vivaro Electric remains amongst the category benchmarks and has the awards cabinet to prove it.
Similar brands
French siblings Peugeot and Citroen offer some natural rivalry because of the similarities of their product range, as does Toyota, the Japanese marque also sharing a commercial vehicle partnership with Stellantis Group. Elsewhere, Ford has a similarly competitive model range.
