Chassis cabs are also offered for trades that need specialist bodies (from removal persons to butchers). For vans with the biggest backsides loads can be up to 17m long. You can add another seven hours to that for a less juicy wall power unit.In van guise there are three lengths and three heights with space for stuff ranging from 10 m3 to 17 m3, and it can weigh up to 1,900kg. The smaller battery pack has an eight year, 100,000 mile warranty, the larger one is guaranteed for a decade and 135,000 miles.Charging times? Fifty minutes for the fastest charge up to 80 per cent. The Fiat is sold with a three ‘module’ 74kWh battery with a claimed 142 miles range or five module, 70kWh battery which will allegedly keep going for 223 miles between charges. Yes, this Italian badged large van is the same vehicle as the Peugeot e-Boxer, Citroen e-Relay and Vauxhall Movano Electric. Power comes from a 57kW electric motor normally found in the Zoe hatchback car. Charging times go from a not-so-fast-charge of 4 hours 5 minutes to 13 hours 55 minutes for a three pin domestic socket. Theoretical range between charges is 125 miles, although Renault also quotes a real world figure as low as 75 miles. There are even a couple of chassis cab options for coach built bodies. Carrying capacity ranges from 8 to 13 m3. The bigger the Master the heavier it is, so the smallest version will carry the heaviest loads, the largest the bulkiest. The van is offered in short, medium or long body versions with high and low roof options. which is a much bigger panel van rival to things like the Mercedes Sprinter. badged electric Kangoos in the past decade.Īnd the Nissan? It's replacement for the pioneering e-NV200 is nothing more than a rebadge of the Renault. Sadly, this won’t be a feature of right hook vans.We gather that it will get something described as ‘a permanent rear view digital mirror’ and clever packaging ideas apparently include an internal roof rack.Kangoo the third will be sold in two lengths with a load volume of 3.3 m3 to 3.9 m3 in the short one and from 4.2 m3 to 4.9 m3 in the longer van. When left hand drive Kangoo owners open the passenger door and its rear sliding companion they will be confronted by a very large hole, because there isn’t a b-pillar separating them, so getting bulky items into the Kangoo should be easier. Once again there are some clever storage features. The third generation Kangoo arrived in UK showrooms recently and ditches the previous, decade old version’s rounded, soft toy looks for sharper styling. Unlike its Peugeot and Citroen stablemates, which come in three different lengths, Vauxhall’s van is either 4,959mm and 5,309mm long. There are three trim levels, the amusingly named Dynamic, Elite (surely something a van can never be) and Double Cab Elite, which has a second row of seats. The 75kWh version needs another fifteen minutes. Vauxhall is claiming 80 per cent in as little as thirty minutes on a fast charger. Both versions have a 1,000kg towing weight, but the smaller battery takes less time to charge. But hang on, the larger battery pack is heavier so its payload goes down from 1,226kg to 1,002kg. You might well go for the bigger battery, as it has a claimed range of 205 miles, which is rather further than the 50kWh’s 143 miles. This is a Ford Transit rival and has either 50 or 75kWh batteries stuffed under its load deck, which in its longer form will swallow 6.6 m3 of goods and carry items up to 4m long. The electric versions have the letter ‘e’ and a hyphen in front or at the end of their names, and there are detail spec differences, but the way they do things is very similar, so we’ll concentrate on the Vivaro-e. This is why the Peugeot Expert, Citroen Dispatch and Vauxhall Vivaro light commercials look like triplets. That’s because they’re often made by the same conglomerates on shared assembly lines and sold with different badges. Like European royal families, today’s vans are often closely related. Vauxhall Vivaro Electric, Peugeot e-Expert and Citroen e-Dispatch Just don’t expect that kind of range in winter with a van full of cement and lumber.Ģ. With a claimed range of just 196 miles depending on which variant you have, obviously, the E-Transit delivers a knock-out punch to other e-vans. You can have the new e-Transit in three lengths and two heights, including a bare chassis for sticking specialist equipment onto, a double-cab set up for extra people, and various other configurations. It's no poorer in terms of working practicality than its forebears. With the big ‘Ford Pro’ support package from the manufacturer on offer as well, it’s probably a more significant car for Ford than something like the Mach E. It’s cheaper than rivals, has more range and is super to drive.
