The top spec Premium gets 17-inch alloy wheels, air conditioning, a reversing camera, velour floor mats and pre-installation for satellite navigation.
The Vito is can be matched to one of two engines with a total of five different power outputs to choose from. Pure models come with a 1.6-litre unit which, depending on output, is known as 109 CDI (87bhp) and 111 CDI (112bhp).

The 1.6-litre variants send drive to the front wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox, while the 2.1 is rear-wheel drive and available with a choice of manual and seven-speed automatics depending on model.
As before, the Vito is available in three lengths. However, the Compact, Long and Extra Long nomenclature has been replaced with L1, L2 and L3
The revised Vito range is available to order now. The 114 CDI L2 is priced at £23,900 (excluding VAT) in Pure trim, £25,570 for the Progressive and £27,580 for the Premium.
