• by Andy Satter The new Movano, due for launch this autumn, is set to spearhead a renewed assault into the "heavy' van sector. The new van, part of a continued joint venture between Vauxhall and Renault, features a revised front-end with new headlights, bumper and grille which combine to give a more robust look. On the inside, the cabin gets a makeover with new digital dash read out, fascia-mounted gear change and a fresher look.
Under the skin, Movano benefits from the new commonrail 1.9-litre diesel as used in the Vivaro/Trafic light van; two versions of the 2.5-litre engine and, later in the year, a highpower 136hp 3.0-litre engine from Renault-owned Nissan will join the line-up.
A choice of five or six-speed transmissions are available, depending on engine choice.
At the smaller end of the range, the 2004 Corsavan is set to get the highly-efficient new 1.3 CDT1 Ecotec commonrail engine as a replacement for both of the current 1.7-litre units.
Vauxhall has seen unprecedented market share growth over the past 12 months and currently commands a near 16% of the total van sector.
According to Vauxhall CV marketing boss John Leicester, that growth has largely been driven by the lighter vans in the Vauxhall range. With the new Movano about to join the fray Leicester expects the heavy vans, including Movano and Vlvaro, to improve Vauxhall's market performance further. Vauxhall's new 1.3 CDT! gets its first CV showing in the Corsavan.
