What are the dimensions of the Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro (2014-2018)?

Example of a Vivaro
A 2nd generation Vauxhall Vivaro (B) - smallest version: L1H1

I'm working on my own panel van conversion, and I found that It's pretty hard to find the dimensions of just about any van. It's all over the place. That's why I've created this article. Why not help others that are doing something similar?

This page will be helpful when you're converting a van into a camper van, or when you're planning the layout for your new corporate van.'

First, more on the Vivaro

The Opel or Vauxhall Vivaro B is the second generation Vivaro Vans, and is made from 2014 - 2018.

It's a rebranding of the Renault Trafic, meaning it has the same dimensions. It's made by Renault in Sandouville, France.

Vauxhall is the brand name for all UK produced Opel cars, and has right-side steering. The UK vans are made in Luton, UK.

Can you stand up in a Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro B?

Standing up in an empty van

The interior roof height of a Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro is 1387mm (H1) - 1897mm (H2) .
If you are of medium height (178cm or 5"10') you can't stand up in a Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro H1. But you can stand up in a Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro H2 and up.

What happens if I insulate the van?

Are you planning on insulating and cladding the floor and roof? In that case you can't stand up fully in a Vivaro H1. But you would still be able to stand up in a H2 model and up.

What's a Vivaro B high top?

Opel/Vauxhall provides their Vivaro Bs with both high and low tops. High tops are elevated roofs to provide more headroom. Generally, everything above H2 is considered a high top, and should offer sufficient space to stand up fully.
