Experience the Benefits of Electric & Hybrid Vans

Choosing to lease an electric or hybrid van not only helps reduce your carbon footprint but also brings multiple advantages to your business or personal use:

  • Lower running costs: Electric and hybrid vans typically have lower fuel costs compared to their petrol or diesel counterparts. Charging your van overnight during off-peak hours can further reduce your expenses.
  • Reduced emissions: By using electric or hybrid vans, you contribute to cleaner air and reduced CO2 emissions, making a positive impact on the environment.
  • Quieter operation: Electric motors are much quieter than traditional combustion engines, providing a more comfortable and less intrusive driving experience.
  • Tax incentives: The UK government offers various grants and tax incentives for low-emission vehicles, making electric and hybrid van leasing even more cost-effective.

Charging Solutions for Electric & Hybrid Vans

When leasing an electric or hybrid van, it's important to consider charging solutions to ensure a seamless experience. Here are some key aspects to bear in mind:

  1. Home Charging: Install a home charging station to charge your van overnight, taking advantage of off-peak electricity rates for cost-effective charging.

  2. Workplace Charging: Many businesses are now installing charging stations at their premises, allowing employees to charge their electric and hybrid vans while they work.

  3. Public Charging Network: With the UK's expanding public charging infrastructure, you can easily charge your electric or hybrid van at various locations, including motorway service stations, shopping centres, and public car parks.

Understanding Electric & Hybrid Van Ranges

As electric and hybrid van technology continues to evolve, ranges are constantly improving, making it essential to understand their capabilities to choose the most suitable vehicle for your needs. Here's what you need to know:

  1. Electric Van Ranges: Most electric vans now offer a range of 100-200 miles on a single charge, depending on factors such as the size of the battery, the vehicle's weight, and driving conditions. As technology advances, you can expect these ranges to increase, offering even greater flexibility for your business needs.

  2. Hybrid Van Ranges: Hybrid vans can cover even greater distances when combining electric and conventional fuel modes. The electric-only range of a hybrid van is usually shorter than that of a fully electric model. However, once the electric range is depleted, the vehicle seamlessly switches to its conventional fuel engine, providing an extended total range without the need for recharging.

  3. Assessing Your Daily Driving Requirements: To choose the most suitable electric or hybrid van for your needs, consider your daily driving requirements, such as the average miles you cover and the availability of charging infrastructure along your routes. This will help you determine the range and type of van that best meets your business's specific needs.

  4. Charging Infrastructure and Planning: As electric and hybrid van adoption becomes more widespread, charging infrastructure continues to grow. However, it's essential to plan your routes and charging points, particularly for longer journeys, to ensure your vehicle remains charged and operational.

  5. Benefits of Improved Ranges: With the continuous improvement in electric and hybrid van ranges, businesses can enjoy the benefits of lower emissions, reduced fuel costs, and potential government incentives, all while enjoying the same practicality and reliability they expect from traditional vans.

By understanding electric and hybrid van ranges and considering your daily driving requirements, you can make an informed decision when choosing the most suitable vehicle for your needs.

Electric Vans FAQs

Electric vans are powered solely by electricity, using a battery to store energy. Hybrid vans, on the other hand, use a combination of an electric motor and a conventional fuel engine, switching between the two power sources as needed.

Charging times for electric vans depends on the battery capacity and the type of charger being used. A standard home charger (7kW) can charge most electric vans in 6-12 hours, while rapid chargers (50kW) can typically charge the battery up to 80% in around 30-60 minutes.

The range of electric vans varies depending on the model and battery size. Most electric vans currently offer a range of 100-200 miles on a single charge.

Yes, the UK government offers various incentives for businesses that choose electric or hybrid vans, such as grants for purchasing electric vehicles and lower Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) rates.

Yes, electric vans are designed to handle heavy loads similar to conventional vans. However, keep in mind that carrying heavy loads may affect the van's range and overall performance.
