VAUXHALL REMAINS THE UK’S BEST-SELLING ELECTRIC VAN MANUFACTURER

  • Vauxhall continues to dominate the UK electric van sales in June.
  • The Vivaro Electric is the top-selling e-LCV in the country, with 482 units registered in June and 2389 year-to-date.
  • Vauxhall holds nearly a third of the market share for electric vans sold in the first six months of the year.
  • Vauxhall is one of the few manufacturers in the UK that offers fully electric vans throughout its entire lineup.

 

According to the latest registration figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT), Vauxhall remains the leading manufacturer of electric Light Commercial Vehicles (e-LCVs) in the UK.

 

The figures for June show that Vauxhall has a 32.0% market share in the e-LCV segment year-to-date, meaning one out of every three electric vans sold in the UK so far this year is a Vauxhall.

 

The Vivaro Electric is the best-selling new electric van in the UK, holding the top position in both June and year-to-date sales. In June alone, 482 units of the Vivaro Electric were sold, bringing the total to 2389 units for the first six months of the year.

 

Vauxhall is one of the few manufacturers in the UK that offers a fully electric van across its entire model lineup. The company has committed to becoming an electric-only manufacturer by 2028, seven years ahead of the UK Government’s deadline.

 

James Taylor, Managing Director of Vauxhall UK, stated that Vauxhall is the preferred choice for businesses, fleets, and private buyers in search of capable and efficient electric vans. The company is dedicated to electrifying Britain and working with businesses of all sizes to meet their current and future electric vehicle needs.

 

The Vivaro Electric, which has been recognized as the ‘Medium Van of the Year’ at the What Van? Awards 2022 and the ‘Best Medium Electric Van’ at the Driving Electric Awards 2022, as well as being crowned the ‘International Van of the Year 2021’, offers great flexibility. It is available with either a 50kWh or a 75kWh battery, providing a WLTP range of up to 205 miles on a single charge and a maximum payload of up to 1,226kg.
