Electric Van Leasing

Overall, leasing an electric van can provide numerous benefits over a petrol or diesel van, including lower operating costs, environmental friendliness, government incentives, reduced noise pollution, and improved reliability.

Charging an electric van is straightforward, and very much the same process as charing an electric car.

You can charge your electric van at home or work if you have access to an electrical outlet or if a dedicated charge point is installed. If you need to charge your van whilst you're out on the road, you can take advantage of over 30,000 public charge points available across the UK.

It's important to note that the charging time and range of an electric van may vary depending on the battery size, charger type, and driving conditions.

Yes, all electric vans are automatic as they don't have a traditional manual grearbox like petrol or diesel vans. Instead, electric vans use a single-speed transmission or a direct drive system that allows for smooth acceleration and a more efficient use of the electric motor's power. The lack of gears also means that electric vans can offer a simpler and more reliable drivetrain compared to petrol or diesel vans. As a result, driving an electric van can feel smoother and more effortless than driving a traditional van with a manual gearbox.

The range of an electric van depends on several factors, including the size of the battery, the efficiency of the vehicle, the driving conditions and the size and weight of the payload. The typical range of an electric van is between 100 - 200 miles.

The popularity of electric vans in the UK has been increasing rapidly in recent years as more and more manufacturers release new electric models. Here are some of the most popular electric vans in the UK right now:

• Mercedes-Benz eSprinter: The eSprinter is a larger electric van that is popular with delivery and logistics companies as it's available in various sizes and configurations to suit different needs.

• Renault Master: An electric version of the Renault Master, called the Master Z.E., is becoming increasingly popular as more businesses switch to electric vehicles. It has received positive reviews for its practicality, reliability, and low running costs, and it has become a popular choice for delivery fleets and logistics companies.

• Peugeot Expert: The Peugeot e-Expert is a good choice for businesses seeking to reduce their carbon footprint and meet emissions targets.

It's worth noting that the popularity of electric vans is likely to continue growing in the UK, as the government has set a target to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel vans by 2030, which is likely to drive more businesses towards electric vans.

Leasing an electric vans can be a practical solution for many businesses, especially in urban areas with good charging infrastructure. Electric vans have proven to be reliable and offer many economic and environmental benefits, including exemption from congestion charges and low maintenance and servicing costs.
