Great video guys. You ticked all the boxes that commercial van drivers want to know. We install solar panels and Tesla Powerwall batteries for our clients and are making the move the electric vans for our fleet. Videos like this will help others make the same move - keep it up 👍
Wow, great to hear Jim! Make sure you take it for a test drive, and fully explore its performance in the real world...a commercial vehicle really has to perform as you need it! Great van though, and delighted to hear you're considering it!
Looks good. Albeit a black grill trim or just white would suit better I think. They are persistent in not being a Transit body. I'm still in doubt 😁 Going to look at one tomorrow. Building a campervan of it is my goal. What was the consumption on it?
Good shout on the trim Jeff! WLTP is 185 miles from the 88kWh battery. But in testing we were doing better than the advised figures. Best of luck with the campervan conversion!
As someone who is in the market for a electric van to convert to a campervan, this one is number one on my list of options at the moment. Similar to the Ford Transit, slightly larger than the VW transporter. Has to be a good option right?
The only problem I have with all EV's is that they only have a charging point at the front of the viechle which is not good when I prefer to reverse into parking spaces.
Hi Matthew, plenty of EVs have their charging ports towards the back. Many can be reached with the cable even if you do reverse in. Hopefully it doesn't put you off going electric! Thanks for the comment!
Definitely less, but drop in range will depend on what's in the van, what type of driving, etc. Good idea for another video though! Thanks for the comment!
Pointless testing empty vans.Need to be fully loaded,and simulate real life.Hills,stop/start,longer jouneys.,lights on,wipers,heated etc.Bet real range is nowhere near the quoted range. Saw a recent test,can indicated 150 miles available,but only did 90miles,and that was empty.
Diesel engines are far more cleaner and afficient these days and only dependent on fuel and not the national grid... I don't think nothing in place to serve electric vehicles in this world yet. So buy a petrol generator just incase
Hi Dave. They may be cleaner now than they used to be... but they're still extremely polluting and damaging to people's health. They always will be. Although not perfect, EVs are a far better and cleaner way forward. p.s. the fuel you're using also depends on a grid to refine and pump at stations. Thanks for your comment...although we disagree, it's great to see respectful discussion!
Nope just Irish rail. Grey yokes haul freight, maintenance wagons and recover other failed trains. Sales team may as well share a right hand drive van between neighbouring countries that require right hand drive vehicles 👌

Hah! Used to work at the old railway station offices round the corner from where you were reviewing this half way through the video.
Ah the memories.
I believe this yoke will be the first brand new vehicle il purchase... Time to do some money maths!

@@BestElectricVehicle Indeed I will, it has passed the theory test, however the practical exam are the results that matter 👌
Yep, get more of them on the road as soon as possible.
Hopefully a few companies catch this review and have a more serious think about electric for their fleet! Thanks fot the comment!

Yeah should be side middle for front and reverse parking. Need long cords
All well and good but you didn't load the van what's range like then

Just noticed how many diesel taxis zoomed down the bus lane, and our electric van has to stay in the ice lane’s. Nice
Let's hope those diesels are replaced by electric sooner rather than later! Thanks Richard!
In Australia please 🤞 Looks great.
Fingers crossed it makes it there for you! Thanks for the comment!
does this van do 0-60 in 5.7 seconds ? it must be wrong on auto trader because thats what it says
All fun and joy until EPP FAILURE + 🐢 MODE pop up on the dash 😂
lol, 'you may pay a little bit more,'
Put a pallet of engineering bricks in back then take it out for a spin, come on real world plz.

Needs a good dealer service and parts availability before I buy.. Charlie Wanger stuff not kept in at motor factors
Brexit Van! Norn Iron and Republic trains at the start
Van was brought over from UK for showing. Will probably head back in a few months time. Hope you enjoyed the video!
