Vauxhall Vans Driver Feedback

Nov. 28, 2009 - PRLog -- Vauxhall Commercial Vehicles recently carried out a survey of van hire customers regarding the vans they had driven and how they felt they performed, especially when compared to the cars these occasional van users normally drive.  The results are very positive and really bring to light the way vans have developed over the past few years.

1,000 people who had recently hired a van, be it Vauxhall or otherwise, were surveyed, these people being occasional users, needing the larger load capacity for moving home or transporting large items.   One of the biggest indicators of how well the van has developed is that a full 90% of respondents were happy with the comfort and specification of the van they had used.  Many Vauxhall vans now come fitted as standard with electric windows and air conditioning, matching the standards of cars.  Even a few years ago these were unheard of fitments in vans so it is obvious that these light commercial vehicles have really come a long way in a short space of time.

The ease of driving the new range of Vauxhall vans also appeared to be changing the way vans are perceived, with 51% of people feeling no worries about driving them.  Even higher percentages – 57% - were also happy parking them.  This is one of the major concerns with vans so the improved designs to aid visibility and light steering are certainly helping Vauxhall van drivers out in the real world.

The Vauxhall Commercial Vehicles Brand Manager, Steve Bryant, was pleased with the findings, seeing the previous attitudes to vans evolving in line with the development work Vauxhall and other van manufacturers are putting in to make them as easy as possible to drive and use.
