Versions at a glance
Battery capacity, official WLTP range and estimated real-world range for each Vauxhall Combo Life version. The estimated range is the supplier’s figure, not a VehicleScore road test. A blank cell means that figure is not listed for that version.
| Model year | Variant | Battery capacity | Official WLTP range | WLTP city | Estimated real-world range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | 50 kWh | 206 miles | Not listed | Not listed |
| 2025 | Combo Life Ultimate EV (Ultimate XL) | 50 kWh | 207 miles | Not listed | Not listed |

Charging cost estimate
Estimated home-charging cost for one Vauxhall Combo Life version. The full charge uses that version’s listed battery capacity, which is not a measured usable capacity. Charging loss is an assumption you can change, not a test result for this car. The tariff and annual mileage are examples until you replace them.
Estimated full charge
£13.33
Estimated electricity cost per mile
6.47p
Estimated annual charging cost
£517.60
Cost per mile uses this version’s listed Wh per mile figure. A full charge is estimated at 55.56 kWh from the meter after the assumed loss. That works out at 4.12 miles per kWh before charging loss.
Charging time
A listed charging time is shown only when this version has a 10–80% time at the exact supply power you enter. Otherwise the minutes are a VehicleScore estimate from the battery capacity, that power and the charging loss. The rapid power box starts empty unless a rapid-charge limit is listed for the car. A charger’s advertised power is not filled in for you. A calculated rapid-charge time assumes constant power. It is not a real-world charging curve, and the number you type is the supply power, not confirmation of the car’s limit.
Home, 10–80%
Enter capacity and power
A time needs a battery capacity and a supply power you enter.
Rapid, 10–80%
23 min listed
Listed charging time: 23 minutes from 10–80% on a 100 kW supply. The charging-loss box does not change a listed time, and this supply power is not the car’s rapid-charge limit.
Full vehicle specifications for every version
Home charging
The onboard figure is the Type 1 or Type 2 charger listed for that version. Listed charging times are 10–80% at the supply power named beside them. A 22 kW supply does not mean the car charges at 22 kW.
| Model year | Variant | Home charge port | Onboard home charger | Listed charging time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | Type 2 Standard, Type 2 Optional | Not listed | 1015 min on a 2.3 kW supply; 315 min on a 7.4 kW supply; 212 min on a 11 kW supply |

Rapid charging
A rapid-charge limit is shown only where the vehicle specification includes one and it agrees with the charging-port record. Listed charging times stay next to the supply power they were timed at. That supply power is not the car’s maximum.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | CCS | 100 kW | 47 min on a 50 kW supply; 23 min on a 100 kW supply; 23 min on a 150 kW supply |

Energy efficiency
Wh per mile is the listed energy-use figure. Miles per kWh and kWh per 100 miles are that same figure converted. They are not a second test.
| Model year | Variant | Energy use |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | 243 Wh/mile (4.12 miles/kWh, 24.3 kWh/100 miles) |

Battery warranty
These are the new-car battery warranty years and mileage. They are not the cover remaining on a used car. Where both a time limit and a mileage limit are listed, the record does not say which one ends the cover.

|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | 8 years / 100,000 miles | 3 years / 60,000 miles |

Other vehicle specifications
Power, pace, weight and size already have their own VehicleScore pages. They are here so you can recognise the version. They are not averaged across the model.
| Model year | Variant | Output | Torque | Top speed | Kerb weight | Length × width × height |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Combo Life Design EV (Design XL) | 134.1 bhp | 270 Nm | 80 mph | 1922 kg | 4753 × 2107 × 1880 mm |
| 2025 | Combo Life Ultimate EV (Ultimate XL) | 134.1 bhp | 270 Nm | 80 mph | 1806 kg | 4753 × 2107 × 1880 mm |

Winter range
These specifications do not include a winter or cold-weather range for the Vauxhall Combo Life, and this guide does not estimate one. Cold weather shortens an electric car’s range. Compare the official WLTP figure and the supplier’s estimated real-world range for the same version.
A single winter percentage would mix versions that already have different batteries and ranges.
Buying a used Vauxhall Combo Life
The figures above describe catalogue versions. They do not describe the battery in one used car.
- Match the advert to the model year and variant before you compare battery capacity or range.
- Read battery capacity as the listed catalogue figure. Usable capacity is not included.
- Check the charge port and onboard home-charger rating for that version, especially on older cars with a Type 1 socket.
- Treat the warranty as the new-car catalogue cover. Age and mileage decide what is left.
- Enter the registration for history and any battery health records available for that vehicle. This page cannot show them.
Data sources
Battery capacity, official WLTP range, estimated real-world range, listed charging times, energy use and warranty figures are vehicle specifications supplied by UK Vehicle Data. Estimated real-world range is that supplier’s estimate, not a measurement by VehicleScore. Charging costs and any minute marked as calculated are VehicleScore estimates from the figures you can see. Usable battery capacity and winter range are not in this specification set, so they are not shown. Listed charging times that cannot be a 10–80% charge of a passenger car are left out.
Each row is one catalogue version. Figures are not averaged across model years or variants.
