Interesting electric van

We first saw one of these when overnighting at our favourite pub near Harrogate a couple of years ago. Beautiful finish.

Not for that one Trev, it's a 5 year old test vehicle.

The blue one was their first concept in 2019 ish and the pink one is their current concept van. Would be a very small camper if you used one of these they aren’t very big inside. Aren’t they looking around the £60k mark for the van Ke, aiming at a very niche market share?

8foot plus long, but the blue one is the 2017 2t GVW 1t payload concept to prove the tech, it's be easy to add more bigness in the longerness department, and more batteries to increase the range but there will be a limit or you won't be able to put anything in it.

Yes I have seen the video on YouTube, first version used commercial running gear (blue van) but the new pink one has all their own bits on it and depending on battery chosen can be up to 250 miles range. I thought the blue one had an overlay in the vid that said its payload was 10cwt? New one they are aiming at a tonne payload but I don’t recall it saying if that was with the smaller of the three battery packs or not.

In any event ranges will get better if you listen to the likes of Ford, they are expecting to get 200 or so miles from the Transit is it this year?

I like the look of it though
