In 1951 a longer, wider Vauxhall Velox was launched, designated as the EIP series, and featuring a modern 'three box' shape and integral construction.
The body was again shared with the four-cylinder-engined Vauxhall Wyvern.
The car was launched with the previous model's engine but with power output increased to 58bhp.
A car with the original 2275cc engine tested by The Motor magazine in 1951 had a top speed of 77.4 mph and could accelerate from 0-60 mph in 23.7 seconds.
In April 1952 the Velox was re-designated as the EIPV series and received a new 2262cc engine which had been in development for several years.
This provided either 64bhp or, with a compression ratio improved to 7.6:1, 68bhp of power.
A further test in 1952 by The Motor magazine of the EIPV with the short stroke 2262cc engine, found the top speed had increased to 80.4 mph and acceleration from 0-60 mph to 21.4 seconds.
The coupé utility continued on until officially withdrawn at the end of the 1957 model year.
