The decarbonisation of the van sector is some years behind cars, but arguably even more important. Yet, for many organisations, there are still questions over the productivity impact of e-vans. That’s where e-van rental comes in.
The best way to understand electrical commercial vehicle motoring is to test in real-world working conditions. Being able to do this with manufacturers and dealers is often challenging, however, rental provides a fantastic ‘no risk’ opportunity, taking a vehicle for a few weeks or months to learn from the experience. It is also critical to winning the hearts and minds of drivers who will need to adapt to electric van usage. Plus, flexible rental supports fleets through seasonal and temporary demand.
Europcar eVan fleet
Europcar’s goal is to make electric commercial motoring more accessible for more businesses by providing a choice of compact electric vans that can serve multiple use cases, and offering ICE/EV price parity.
A significant volume of small electric panel vans have been added to the Europcar fleet available from locations across the UK on long term flex rental of three months
or more.
The Vauxhall Combo Electric and award-winning Renault Kangoo eTech provide businesses with an ideal entry route to electric motoring. The rapid charging capability and long driving range mean these vans also offer businesses a great way to put electric vans to the test operationally, as a real-world test drive.
