Automatic transmission in a small van?

I own an automatic transmission Renault Kangoo (petrol). I have done over 100K miles in less than six years. Never had major problems with it - fingers crossed - and I've changed the timing belt at 70k miles. My concern is petrol consumption. A full tank costs me 70 quid and I fill up about three times a week. I never got round to do a LPG conversion and as my vehicle is getting on a bit, I don't see any point in doing it at this stage.

I want to buy a similar van brand new. It needs to be automatic. But I need it to be diesel or hybrid or petrol with the LPG conversion. Do you know if Renault, Citroen, Fiat, Toyota or any other manufacturers make such a thing?

VW does Caddy diesels with DSGs. That's all I can think of.
