Corsa-e, Grandland X Hybrid4.
Vivaro van, Mokka X, Combo, Combo Life, Vivaro Life, an electrified version of the next generation Astra.
So it seems that Vauxhall have confirmed an electric version of the Astra by the end of 2021, but whether this will carry a VXR badge is not mentioned.

Electrified does not equal electric. Most likely a 48v mild-hybrid introduced on the current generation. The next gen will probably move to the same platform as the new C4, which is available in electric and ICE variants.
