The Vauxhall Movano

Vauxhall has once again sold more more vans to retail (SME) customers in March than any other van manufacturer in the UK, according to the latest figures from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT).

The Luton-based manufacturer sold an impressive 2,494 vans to small businesses last month.

“Coming number one in the market for March and year-to-date is a fantastic result for Vauxhall vans,” said Richard Collier, Vauxhall’s National Commercial Vehicles Sales Manager.  “I am very pleased we have maintained our number one position from last year into 2012.  It goes to show that our market leading 4×4 offer of four years zero per cent finance, free servicing, warranty and AA cover has been a huge hit with our customers.  Despite the economic climate there’s still strong demand for our vehicles that offer low running costs reinforced by excellent manufacturer and retailer support.”

The British-built Vivaro is also the best selling van in the medium van segment with 3,531 registrations so far this year.

Vauxhall builds more commercial vehicles in the UK than any other manufacturer.  The latest edition to Vauxhall’s van range – the all-new Combo – is due to make its UK show debut at the CV Show in Birmingham this month alongside the full Vauxhall van range.
