Specification and pricing for announced for Vauxhall Movano Hydrogen

Vauxhall has announced full pricing and specification for the Movano Hydrogen, with zero exhaust emissions and a range of up to 311 miles (WLTP). Available in the upper levels Prime specification only, prices will start from £66,450 OTR with the order books opening in Spring 2025.

The Movano Hydrogen completes a range of zero-emission vans from Vauxhall, alongside the Vauxhall Combo Electric, Vauxhall Vivaro Electric and Vauxhall Movano Electric, with electric vans being a mainstay of the brand’s range since 2021.

Equipped with an electric motor producing maximum power of 110kW (150PS) and 410Nm (302 lb ft) of torque, the Movano Hydrogen uses a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell, rated at 45kW maximum power, paired with 4 high-pressure cylindrical hydrogen tanks capable of storing 7kg of hydrogen at 700 bar operating pressure. Refuelling is quick, taking less than five minutes to achieve a full charge.

An 11kWh lithium-ion battery provides support when starting or accelerating. The system enables regenerative braking energy to be stored and fed into the battery as electricity via the electric motor working as a generator. The battery can also be re-charged in approximately 90 minutes using an 11kW AC charger.

The Movano Hydrogen is available exclusively in Prime specification, equipped with an upgraded multimedia navigation system featuring a 10-inch touchscreen with integrated TomTom satellite navigation system, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, AM/FM/DAB digital radio, Bluetooth connectivity, and two USB connections, A and C. A seven-inch digital instrument cluster provides clear and essential driving information.

Interior features include rear parking sensors, automatic air conditioning, an electric parking brake and twin-lens door mirrors with electrically adjustable and heated mirrors.

This year, Vauxhall began UK customer trials of the smaller Vauxhall Vivaro Hydrogen, already sold in left-hand drive (LHD) markets by Vauxhall’s sister brand, Opel, making it the first commercially available production hydrogen van.

Does the £40k VED premium apply to vans as well as cars?

I am purchasing a new Volkswagen Transporter van and having it converted into a campervan. The purchase price of the basic van is just over £40k. Does the premium supplement apply to vans or does it only apply to cars?
The premium tax rate for cars over £40,000 doesn't apply to light goods vehicles such as vans. So if you're buying a new Euro 5 compliant van, the annual tax rate is currently £140. There is a different system for campervans but as you're buying a van to convert, rather than buying a campervan or motorhome, these rates won't apply.
