Vauxhall Astra Named 'Best Medium Car' At 2024 Business Motoring Awards

The Vauxhall Astra has been awarded 'Best Medium Car' at the 2024 Business Motoring Awards. Celebrating its tenth year, the awards highlight market leaders in the SME sector, judged by an independent panel of automotive experts and the Business Motoring editorial team. The Astra was praised for its driving experience, low ownership costs, and impressive build quality.

Available as a hatchback or Sports Tourer estate, the Astra offers petrol, hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and fully electric variants, catering to diverse drivers. The Astra Electric, with zero emissions in use, qualifies for a Benefit-in-Kind rate of just 2% (2023/24), making it ideal for fleet and business users.

Chris Wright, Editor of Business Motoring, remarked:

“The latest Astra is as great to drive as ever. Importantly, Vauxhall has reduced ownership costs, making the car more accessible. The build quality is excellent, and the overall package is well thought out.”

James Taylor, Managing Director of Vauxhall, added:

“Our success at the Business Motoring Awards proves that the Astra is now a more attractive proposition. With low running costs and a range of powertrains, including the fully electric Astra Electric, the Astra is perfect for businesses of all sizes.”

The Astra Electric features a 54kWh battery and a 156hp electric motor, achieving 4.2 miles per kWh and offering up to 258 miles of range (WLTP). Vauxhall aims to offer a fully electric version of every model in its lineup by the end of 2024.

Financial Disclosure

F.P. Smith Holdings (Newark Avenue) Limited, F.P. Smith Holdings (Ilkeston) Ltd, and F.P. Smith Motors Ltd are Appointed Representatives of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows F.P. Smith Holdings (Newark Avenue) Limited, F.P. Smith Holdings (Ilkeston) Ltd, and F.P. Smith Motors Ltd to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach for a new car purchase is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow.

Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.

In the event of disputes we are unable to resolve the Retail Motor Industry Federation (RMI) National Conciliation Service will offer free impartial advice and when appropriate an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) service that we are fully committed to.
