"It’s great news that our all-new British-built Vivaro enters the market at such a competitive starting price – £450 less than the outgoing model," said Steve Bryant, brand manager, Vauxhall Commercial Vehicles. “ Vivaro is the highlight of our van range and boasts a new design, class-leading build quality and practicality and all-new fuel-efficient powertrains."

The new Vivaro is built at Vauxhall’s manufacturing plant in Luton, Bedfordshire, which has received a significant investment in excess of £185 million.

More than 40% of content for the new vehicle will be sourced locally. The plant and associated agencies directly employ over 1,200 people in the Luton area, and is a significant contributor to the local and wider UK economies.

Vauxhall is the UK’s number one manufacturer, building over 44,000 vans in the UK last year, all of which were produced at Luton. Building over triple that of its nearest competitor, it is a position Vauxhall has held for the last 12 years.
