Stellantis &You UK Adds Vauxhall Birmingham Retailer As Part Of Multi-Franchise Expansion Plans

Stellantis &You, Sales and Services has acquired the Vauxhall retailer in Selly Oak, Birmingham as part of ongoing multi-franchise expansion plans. The acquisition of the Birmingham retailer marks a significant milestone for Stellantis &You UK as its first Vauxhall presence outside of London.

Multi-franchise expansion plans are currently underway for Stellantis &You UK, having recently added a new Fiat and Abarth showroom at the flagship Stellantis &You retailer in Chiswick, West London. A new state of the art, six-brand showroom is also set to open in Bristol in the summer, which will see the Alfa Romeo and Jeep brands added to Stellantis &You UK’s portfolio. Stellantis &You UK recently celebrated the first anniversary of its name change and currently has 24 PEUGEOT, 17 Citroën, five DS, five Vauxhall, three Fiat and three Abarth new car franchise retailers and five Distrigo Hubs in 33 locations across the UK.

Following the handover at Birmingham Selly Oak, the site is open and trading, with the majority of the current team retained. With a Trustpilot rating marked as excellent, Stellantis &You UK has a reputation for customer service and this location will continue to focus on delivering overall excellent customer experience. The Birmingham South retailer will continue to offer a fantastic choice of new cars and vans, including the UK’s best-selling supermini, the Vauxhall Corsa, alongside a dedicated used car forecourt occupying around 70 vehicles. The site holds full aftersales facilities including dedicated service and MOT bays.

VAUXHALL COMMITTED TO ELECTRIFYING BRITAIN

Stellantis &You Birmingham South is a flagship location for Vauxhall in a position to welcome Vauxhall’s expanding product line-up. With the launch of the new Frontera and All-New Grandland, the brand will offer a fully electric version of every car and van model by the end of this year, giving customers greater choice and confidence when making the switch to electric.

With Vauxhall’s innovative five-year PCP offer, the recently announced Corsa Electric YES Edition and Mokka Electric Griffin are both cheaper per month with an equal deposit contribution compared to the equivalent petrol models at £251pcm and £286pcm respectively. Across Vauxhall’s wider line-up, customers can enjoy equivalent monthly payments between fully electric and petrol versions of New Corsa, Mokka and Astra. Customers can also benefit from substantial Vauxhall deposit contributions of £7,450 on New Corsa Electric Design, £4,590 on Mokka Electric Griffin and £3,000 on Astra Electric Design.

Vauxhall has also enhanced its Plug & Go offer, which includes access to a variety of charging solutions to help make the switch to electric even easier. The offer includes a free Ohme Pro wallbox installed by Octopus Energy when customers buy online. Alternatively, customers have the option to choose one year's free charging credit* at Tesco or a £675 credit with Octopus Electroverse, in lieu of the free wallbox.

Angela Shepherd, Stellantis &You UK Chief Executive, comments: “I’m thrilled that Stellantis &You will be representing Vauxhall in Birmingham. The product line up continues to expand offering a choice for all car and van buyers. We have a fantastic team already on site that we welcome into the Stellantis &You family. Our focus remains on providing the right vehicle, supporting all maintenance needs and providing excellent customer service.”

James Taylor, Managing Director, Vauxhall, comments: “It is great to see the Vauxhall retailer in Birmingham South becoming part of the Stellantis &You network. We look forward to continuing to offer their customers accessible and affordable electric vehicles, with electric versions of the new Corsa, Mokka and Astra available at the same monthly price - or less - as equivalent petrol versions.”
