Opel Vivaro Cargo: The New Benchmark
The rapidly growing market for midsize delivery vans will receive even more impetus with the third generation of the Opel Vivaro. Since 2001, the Vivaro has built a strong reputation as a cargo carrier or office on wheels, with around one million units rolling off the assembly line. With sizes tailored to different needs, and numerous innovative technologies, the new Vivaro can perform every job better than ever before. Moreover, the research and development centre in Rüsselsheim is responsible for the global development of light commercial vehicles for the whole Groupe PSA.
The new Vivaro's appeal is not only based on load-carrying capability and passenger-car-like technologies. In addition to state-of-the-art engines, smooth-shifting transmissions, such as an eight-speed automatic, contribute to efficiency and comfort – highly important, especially for the fleet market. Service intervals of up to 50,000 km further reduce operating costs. Features such as the high-positioned headlamps and the maximum height of 1.90m for most variants lower the risk of damage, for example during parking. All of which makes the new-generation Vivaro one of the most economical competitors on the market.
Derivatives are expected in the Southern Africa Opel Dealership network during the first quarter of 2020, and will join the comprehensive Opel model and derivative line-up already available.
