Vauxhall has launched a new sporty GS trim level for its popular Vivaro and Vivaro Electric vans, offering both enhanced aesthetics and an upgraded interior.

The GS brings a dynamic new look to the Vivaro line-up that makes it instantly recognisable on the road. The GS trim boasts exclusive styling elements including a front lip spoiler for added road presence, complemented by sleek side skirts with integrated front mudguards. At the rear, a piano black spoiler gives the Vivaro GS a distinct, sporty appearance, alongside a redesigned rear bumper that complements the other GS features. Additionally, the Vivaro GS features exclusive Y-spoke 18-inch alloy wheels fitted with high-load capacity Nankang tyres, and a unique rear badge. 

Inside, the Vivaro GS is designed with both practicality and comfort in mind. The GS trim comes with hand-crafted eco-leather seats, embossed with the GS logo and finished with bold red stitching and perforated material for ventilation. This eco-leather material is engineered for the demands of van environments, offering benefits like colourfastness, tear resistance, and moisture regulation to support a comfortable ride.

The Vivaro GS is available in two body styles, Panel Van and Doublecab, and in two premium colours: Quartz Silver and Mercury Grey.

Customers can choose between diesel and electric powertrains. The Vivaro Electric GS comes with a 75kWh battery and 136PS electric motor, providing up to 209 miles of range (WLTP Combined). With 100kW rapid-charging capability, the battery can be recharged from 5% to 80% in just 45 minutes, providing convenience for businesses on the go. The diesel option features Vauxhall’s updated 2.0-litre Turbo D engine, available in 145PS guise with a six-speed manual gearbox or as a more powerful 180PS version paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.

As well as the sporty exterior design and upgraded seats, GS comes with an enhanced specification over Pro trim. This includes the Comfort Pack, which features dual-zone electronic climate control, keyless entry & start and wireless smartphone charging. Also included is the Winter Pack, which adds a heated leather steering wheel, heated driver’s seat, and thorax side airbags for enhanced driver and passenger safety.

On top of its unique GS-specific features, the Vivaro GS includes advanced equipment from the Pro trim level, including the Multimedia Pro Navi infotainment system with a 10-inch HD touchscreen, integrated sat-nav, wireless Apple CarPlay™/Android Auto™ and natural voice recognition. For added practicality, there is a FlexCargo load-through bulkhead and a fold-flat centre seat backrest providing a flat work surface.

Safety and convenience are further supported with blind-spot detection, front and rear parking sensors, flank guard detection of fixed obstacles, a Visiopark 180° rear parking camera, and ECO LED headlights, making the Vivaro GS highly equipped to handle professional and daily driving demands. 

Pricing

The new Vivaro GS, now in production, starts at £39,990 (list price exc. VAT) for diesel models, with Vivaro Electric GS prices beginning at £48,940 (OTR price after Plug-in Van Grant exc. VAT).

ABOUT VAUXHALL MOTORS

Vauxhall Motors started making vehicles in the UK in 1903. Today, as the oldest and most familiar of Britain’s automotive manufacturers, its philosophy is to build vehicles that are relevant to all. Vauxhall is one of few mainstream automotive brands to produce vans in Britain at its manufacturing plants in Luton, home of the Vivaro, and Ellesmere Port, the UK’s first EV-only volume manufacturing plant. Vauxhall is the UK’s best-selling electric light commercial vehicle manufacturer, with more than 17,000 electric vans on the road wearing the Griffin logo, while among its passenger car line-up, the Corsa Electric is the UK’s best-selling electric supermini.

Vauxhall is part of Stellantis NV, a global leader created for the new era of sustainable mobility as a result of the merger between Groupe PSA and FCA Group in January 2021. Vauxhall is a leader in electrification – as of 2021, it was one of the first manufacturers to offer fully electric versions of all its vans. Since the end of 2024, Vauxhall has offered a fully electric version of every model in its car and van line-up. Info: www.vauxhall.co.uk
