When calculating the cost of running one of these things, are you including all the extra coffee and sandwiches?

[robertpowell]

The cost of lost time when you could be working instead of waiting for it to charge must be considerable. Looking around for a suitable or available charger would do my head in.

[ashleighsanders]

And when they decide to put restrictions on us you cut out when you don't do as you are told!

[tecnaman]

How do they go on a freezing cold and wet night with the heater on full blast, the wipers on flat out, lights on etc? Would be interested to know what sort of range to expect under these conditions.

[I-am-not-a-number]

I have 2.5 tonnes of tools and tow up to 2000kg.
I don't have 2 hours to refuel and I dont have thousands of £ for a ev.
I have a 12-year-old diesel with, miles on it and it still passes emissions.





It costs £120 a year to tax, refiling takes minutes giving a 300 mile range.

Maybe reversing up the drive to unload the slate would have made life easier😂

[johndonson]

I used to have an Austin Allegro when i first passed my test in 83, that also had a strange square steering wheel as well.

[rickystephenson]

Can we see how it dose in winter with the heaters on full all day long

[geoffroberts]

My last experience of a electric vehicle was the Co-op milk float in 1956

[amazing]

What's happened to some videos on building work, or any new projects in the pipeline? Skillbuilder really is missing James and Ian.

[rthomasbox]

New Citroen Berlingo e has been launched £37k for a van! £17k more than the diesel. I don’t think your going to save £17k in diesel in the lifetime of the vehicle plus the cost of the electric

[dannycrooks]

A lot of the EV fast chargers have gone up recently and cost around a £1 per kilowatt hour and some are more which make it expensive

[gregorybergere]

EV drivers can be very sure there will be new taxes to replace the lost revenue from Diesel sales. And when sales of EVs take off, even less certainty of finding a working and available charging point.

[tilerman]

A van is only a van when you can get an 8x4 in it. Anything else is a rebranded car without windows. And i don't care if it runs on petrol, diesel or fairy dust.

[kevinisaac]

Great van I’ve go a berlingo diesel but still don’t like having to wait to charge as I’m a heating engineer I carry a lot of gear all the time so would reduce the range not happy sticking with the diesel 👍

[Vwfan]

Getting my 204ps DEISEL DSG VW Transporter Sportline soon. Cant wait. My wife has a Range Rover Evoque and has never charged it from the house as all chargers at shopping centres are full or are not working. DEISEL lives!!!!

[LarsEelke]

We have a Peugeot and I won’t buy another electric vehicle for a while. Batteries really need to improve first.
Had a service mechanic driving it and he had to charge twice a day, which took atleast 30 minutes per charge. Range was supposed to be 170 but in reality it was 100-110 at best and a lot less when he had a ladder on the roof.
In my opinion these electric vans are far from ready to replace diesel vans.

[jimskirtt]

No.
The cost is just plain stupid. I looked at a Vauxhall Combo short wheelbase EV...£600 a month on a 3-year lease!!! This is for a small van!!! My van is now 9 years old, and I'm keeping it until the manufacturers figure out a way to make EV vans affordable.

[daverossy]

I think electric vans are where electric cars were around 2015, limited range and not many people want them yet.

I think once they improve battery technology to get 400 miles with a decent load so you only charge at home/depot overnight, that will make it much more appealing.

[simonmiddleton]

Your cost of ownership didn’t include lost income due to wasting so much time whilst recharging
