Vauxhall announces prices for its hydrogen-powered Movano
The Stellantis firm will be one of the first to offer a commercial fleet with the option of electric or hydrogen fuel cell-powered vans.
Vauxhall has announced prices and specifications for its hydrogen-powered Movano van and will be one of the first in the industry to offer such a vehicle.
Under its bonnet, there is an electric motor that produces a total of 147bhp and 410Nm of torque. The fuel cell itself generates a maximum power rate of 60bhp and is paired with four high-pressure cylindrical tanks, which are capable of storing up to 7kg of hydrogen. Vauxhall claims the Movano hydrogen can cover up to 311 miles between fill-ups.
Additionally, the van utilises an 11kWh lithium-ion battery pack that provides added acceleration and can be charged from an 11kW AC charger in 90 minutes.
The Movano hydrogen is only equipped in one trim level, which is known as ‘Prime’. All vans come equipped with an upgraded multimedia navigation system with a 10-inch touchscreen with integrated TomTom sat nav, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, DAB radio, Bluetooth two USB connectors and a seven-inch digital instrument cluster.
Inside, there are features such as automatic air conditioning, keyless entry and go and an electronic parking brake.
There will be a choice of two body styles with prices starting at £66,450, excluding VAT and after the plug-in van grant. A larger, more spacious panel van comes in at £68,070. Order books will open in the spring of 2025.
