Vivaro and Astravan win top awards

Great success for the Astravan and Vivaro: The influential British Light Commercial Vehicles (LCV) magazine, What Van?, honored the two models in its annual "Van of the Year" awards.

The Astravan was awarded "Editor’s Choice" by the publication, which praised its car-like road manners, comfort and flexible engine range.

What Van? editor Neil McIntee said: “The Astravan has always had the enviable reputation of being a driver’s van, and we’re glad to report that the situation hasn’t changed with the new model”.

A top honor was also handed out to the Vivaro with the "Best Small Panel Van" award. The judges said that the Vivaro’s combination of striking design, new engines, impressive load space and optional TecShift transmission made it a winner.
