Electric Vans

Benefits of electric vans

Are you undecided on whether an electric van (EV) is right for you or your business? With the number of EV models increasing rapidly, switching to electric is becoming a more viable option.

From FAQs to cost comparison models, we have everything you need to know about electrifying your commercial vehicle fleet.

  • Better for the environment

    Many of us want to do our bit for the environment, and electric vans can help us do just that. Fully electric vans have zero tailpipe emissions, which means they are greener, cleaner, and better for our environment.

  • Cheaper to run

    Compared to petrol or diesel, electricity is cheap. On a cost-per-mile basis, this means a pure electric van could cost a third (or less) of what a traditional petrol or diesel van might cost.

  • Cheaper to maintain

    While the actual price of an electric van may currently be slightly higher than the petrol or diesel version, reduced maintenance means the cost to run one is significantly cheaper in the long term.

  • Government funding

    The good news is that to support the drive towards switching to electric vans, the government have put in place several great incentives for both businesses and individuals. Take a look at which ones may help you on your EV journey.

  • EV charge exemptions

    CAZ, ULEZ, and LEZ affect millions of drivers across the UK and can have an impact on commercial fleets. It is important to be aware of the rules to avoid additional charges.

  • Convenient charging

    Petrol and diesel vans can only be refilled at petrol stations, but with an electric van, vehicles can be charged overnight or at any time the vehicle is not in use, resulting in a more convenient charging solution.
