Luton-based Vauxhall has secured a deal with Hoover Candy to supply 36 of its British-built Vivaro vans.

The domestic appliance giant, Hoover Candy, has taken delivery of the 36 liveried L1H1 Glacier White Vivaros, which are from the outgoing Vivaro range, rather than this year’s all-new model.

Fitted with the Euro 5 compliant 2.0 CDTi 90PS engine, offering both performance and fuel economy, the vans deliver an impressive 37.7mpg while lowering the overall CO₂ emissions of Hoover Candy’s fleet.

The vans will be used by Hoover Candy’s service engineers over the next four years, to travel the country servicing customers’ appliances. The Vivaros’ interiors have been modified by in-vehicle workshop conversion specialist, the Bott Group, to further enhance the usability of the vehicle for the service engineers.

Fleet Operations Manager at Hoover Candy, Neil Parsons, said:

“We were impressed with the speed of the service provided by Vauxhall and how the team performed against a very tight delivery schedule.”

Hoover Candy’s service engineers will rely on these vans to carry out their jobs to the highest standards. The Vauxhall Vivaros will provide them with a balance of strong performance, economy and reliability.
