Top 10: Petrol vans with the lowest and cheapest insurance groups

2

Ford Fiesta van (2013-)

Insurance Group 1E  

Also in the very lowest 1E insurance group is the Ford Fiesta van, which is the best car-derived van to drive, in our opinion. That rock-bottom group applies to the 82PS 1.25-litre engine – which is still a hoot to drive, despite its small proportions – along with Base and Trend specifications. The Fiesta is also one of the best-looking petrol vans on our list, and it has a smart, well-built interior.

Vauxhall Corsavan (2007-2015)

Insurance Group 1E 

The last of the petrol-powered vans in the lowest 1E insurance group is the Ford Fiesta van’s arch rival, the Vauxhall Corsavan. That group applies to models with the 70PS 1.2-litre Twinport petrol engine, one of which is available with a stop-start system, which makes town driving more economical. There is also one version of the latest Corsavan available in insurance group 1E, also with a 70PS 1.2-litre petrol engine.

MINI Cooper Clubvan (2012-2014)

Insurance Group 2E 

Easily the most stylish petrol-powered van on our list, the MINI Clubvan is a great choice for businesses looking to make a splash. The downside is that it only had a two-year production run, so there are few around, but if you’re lucky enough to find one, they start in insurance group 2E. That applies to both the One Clubvan and the Cooper Clubvan, and you can get both versions with an automatic transmission without leaving the same insurance group.

Fiat Doblo Cargo (2010-)

Insurance Group 3E 

You’re looking at a starting group of 3E for a petrol version of the Fiat Doblo Cargo, which gets you the 95PS 1.4-litre engine in SX trim and both standard and high-roof configurations. The manufacturer’s recent vans are known for their Tardis-like qualities, and the Doblo Cargo is no exception, as it has a huge load bay, despite its relatively compact exterior. It’s also good value and has a comfortable ride.

Vauxhall Combo (2012-)

Insurance Group 3E 

Given that it’s essentially a rebadged version of the Fiat Doblo Cargo, it isn’t surprising that petrol versions of the Vauxhall Combo also start in insurance group 3E. As with the Fiat, Combos in that group are limited to the 95PS 1.4-litre petrol engine in L1H1 2000 guise, and they have a stop-start system, which renders them more frugal around town. There’s no shortage of space in the Combo’s cargo area and it’s comfortable, too.
