Dynamic chassis

With precise power steering, genuine
ride comfor t and incredible agilit y, it’s no
surpr ise Astravan drives more like a
car than perhaps any other van. Yet the
chassis is specially tuned to the demands
of ever yday working life.

Astravan’s sharp, modern lines make a
positive statement about any business.

and side-pr otection mouldings plus a
dark-tinted rear window.

Must-have safety

Astravan provides a safe working
environment with active safet y features
such as Anti-lock Braking and Emergency
Brake A ssist standard on all models ,
Astravan also features the addition of
Elec tronic Stabil ity Programme-plus,
helping you gain control of the van in
emergency situations.

Common rail diesel s

Astravan comes with a choice of three
powerful, high-torque, high-economy
common rail, turbo diesel engines –

1.7CDTi 16v (110PS), 1.7CDTi 16v ecoFL EX
(110PS) and a power ful 125PS version.
Our ecoFLE X model embodies all the
benefi ts of Vauxhall’s ecoFLE X
philosophy: with incredible economy
and CO2 emissions of just 132g /km.

These engines are matched to a manual
six-speed gearbox as standard.

Low running costs

Commercial vehicle operators understand
why we keep Astravan running cost s
low. Ser vice inter vals extend to 2 0,000
miles/one-year, plus there’s a three-year/
60,0 00 mile warranty.

There’s no doubt that it looks good, and it’s great to drive too. But don’t let that
distract you. There’s a choice of three Euro 5 compliant common rail turbo diesel
engines – including a low CO2 1.7CDTi 16v ecoFLEX unit – which match high fuel
economy with extended service intervals for low running costs. Vauxhall was the
first CV manufacturer to offer ‘eco’ versions across the entire line-up, reinforcing our
commitment to environmental principles within the commercial vehicle sector. A
fact recognised by What Van? with the ‘Green’ award in their 2012 honours.

Loadspace

The Astravan load compar tment provides 1.58 cubic metres of highly
versatile loadspace with up to 650kg maximum payload. The optional
Flex bulkhead with fold-flat passenger seat extends maximum load
floor length from 1.82 to 2.68 metres.

From a practicality perspective, Astravan’s tailgate lifts high to reveal
a low loading height, a high, wide loading aperture, and a load area

that combines generous length, width and height with a broad, flat
load floor. Width between the wheel arches is a full 1103mm.

A standard half-height steel bulkhead and half-height plastic
sidewall panelling provide valuable protection against shifting loads.
In addition, six load restraint lashing eyes allow you to secure your
load, avoiding potential damage.
