Vauxhall has integrated its ‘vizor’ front-end styling to the new Combo, carried over from its passenger car range. The van also features matrix LED headlight technology.

The new Vauxhall Combo is available in two trim levels, Prime and Pro. Both versions are available in two lengths, with a choice of two or three front seats. The new Combo is additionally offered as a five-seat Crew Cab.

Inside, the new Combo features an upgraded infotainment system with Vauxhall’s latest-generation user interface. At Pro trim level, the Combo is has an upgraded 10-inch touchscreen and a 10-inch digital instrument cluster, with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Prime variants of the Combo are available with a smartphone station, which allows the driver to use their smartphone to control the vehicle’s infotainment panel, also interacting with the steering wheel buttons.

Rear parking sensors, automatic headlight control and a comfort driver’s seat with lumbar adjustment are also included as standard on Prime, while Pro versions are fitted with power folding door mirrors, a load-through bulkhead and dual-passenger bench with underseat storage for greater convenience.

Stellantis has confimed the new Combo Electric will be produced in the UK, at its Ellesmere Port factory.

The Combo Electric provides a 17% improvement in driving range when compared to the outgoing model. Thanks to enhancements to the vans powertrain, and the fitment of a heat pump, the van can now travel 205 miles (WLTP) on a charge.

It uses a 136PS motor and 50kWh battery. A 7.4kW on-board charger is fitted as standard, while an 11kW charger is optional. The battery can also be recharged from 0-80% in less than 30 minutes at a 100kW public charging station.

As before, the Combo will offer a loadspace of up to 4.4 cubic metres.

Sales of the New Combo and Combo Electric are scheduled to start by the end of this year.  Full specification and pricing details for the full line-up will be announced close to the start of ordering.
