A very basic Vivaro factory-built camper van
Vauxhall seems to have missed an opportunity with the Vivaro Tourer Weekender. That's because this new arrival (which will be known as the Opel Vivaro Life across the rest of Europe) lacks the amenities to make it a true Volkswagen California or Mercedes-Benz Marco Polo rival.
Based on the long-wheelbase L2 Vivaro, the Tourer Weekender features two individual swivelling chairs in the second row and a rail-mounted three-seat bench in the third row. The latter converts into a large double bed.
Extra interior LED lighting is fitted, while a folding table, an auxiliary heater and dark-tint windows appear on the options list. However, blinds or curtains, an elevating roof, built-in storage cupboards and kitchen facilities simply aren't available.
Consequently, the target market is probably going to be very small. There can't be many prospective customers who want or need a vehicle that can transport seven people and then provide sleeping accommodation for just two of them (with little privacy).
For anybody who is still interested, Vauxhall dealers are due to begin accepting Vivaro Tourer Weekend orders soon. Power comes from a 1.6 litre CDTi BiTurbo diesel engine with a choice of 123 bhp (92 kW / 125 PS) or 143 bhp (107 kW / 145 PS) outputs.
