Ford Transit vans have long been the automotive workhorse of choice for lots of smaller businesses in UK, plumbers, electricians, painters etc.

That they now have a pure electric version of the Transit, I find a great positive

[Madonsteamrailways]

Very nice vans!! They’re in England as well. The first delivery was made in time for the Enfield Pageant of Motoring last year. Now let’s have the fully electric van converted into a camper rather than the hybrid Transit Custom.

🙋‍♂️THANKS SAM, FOR SHARING GREAT NEWS FOR ALL 🤗💚💚💚

If battery gets cheaper I think they can sacrifice some of the roof, like 5-8inches for additional battery packs just so it can boost range by at least 100-150km

[Nas_Atlas]

This is a good van for a good price. I'm considering buying one but I think i can wait another year or two. I hope they can get to volume production and start making money on these. Fingers crossed they don't develop any weird problems.

I just traded in an aging and soon to be out of warranty Tesla Model S 90D for a Sprinter Diesel Campervan with 10 kwh of house battery. Seeing some of the electric vans coming out of China, yea I am sort of concerned that I went back to ICE with diesel. At the same time, the range isn't even close to optimal, there's no where to charge in rural areas where I live in Canada and I'd have a hard time towing anything or traveling with a heavy load. Hopefully these vans take another 20 years to be a real evolution. I know that a lot has happened in 8 years since I first steped into my Tesla, but there are still a ton of ICE cars out there.

This is my van life dream vehicle. With solar, 0 gas 0 maintenance. That big price tag gets smaller and smaller when you factor those in. Thate being said its just an electric motor with a shell, why dont we have cheaper options? Maybe becausee the industry is so new and its old car companies with their old expensive philosophies that are the only ones making them? I dunno, i wish we were allowed more options, bring in the chinese EV's, is that why we dont have any here(Canada/USA)? we're protecting American companies from competition, and they turn around and give 100k vans... ugh... free the market!

There is always going to be growing pains until EVs hit the optimum point. The speed that is happening though i see is getting ever faster! I still love the sight and sound of Spitfire in the air, a steam engine puffing and blowing, the sound of a 60's American V8! The looks of a white open top E-type jag. But i would wouldn't i being a 50's child! It's not our fault! But i always dreamed of electric cars since being a delivery boy on breads vans! The electric version was so good compared to the hot noisy diesel in the cab van, i didn't realise then my dream would take 50 years to come real. When the oldies like me have gone the great grand kids will love evs it's just their time.

[Paul-ngjx]

Yeah, the Amazon fulfillment centers have some nice electric delivery trucks now too

[chilllytube]

The video you showed was a UK registered van, so is this available in the UK?

[ApriliaRSVF]

What is load that the range refers to, 50%, 75%? I looked at thd LDV electric van, but its quoted range was with 50% load capacity.

[pauljackson-kl]

I’m sure Mguy reported that they had sold the grand total of 15 in Australia 😭😳

[JoshuaMartian-gotm]

Electric cars/vans only improve when ppl buy them, and it becomes economically viable for manufacturers. Hopefully enough ppl do so they go further on smaller batteries. Hope they don't disappear like electric cars disappeared when first introduce back in the mid 1800;s & reintroduced in the1970s.

[RagnarinVa]

Given these vans do a lot of last might deliveries in urban and suburban environments in the US - this will improve air quality. For EVs to really take hold - they need to address these use cases.

Portugal debuts in manufacturing electric cars with Stellantis in Mangualde
The almost 66-year-old factory will be transformed and, from 2025, it will be able to produce up to 50, 000 electric vehicles per year for Citroën, Peugeot, Opel and Fiat. The country also competes for the battery factory.

[Muricans]

Certainly the Big Guy will be pleased.

[edmor]

Are you kidding me?It looks like there's being hand built-in individual bays.I'm sure they're losing a lot of money per vehicle.

[petersimms]

My mate drives a van, he says he’s lucky to do 70miles in a day 😊

[scottmcshannon]

at least the charging port location is 1000 times better than on the mustang or f15o.

[chaoskid]

75k for 160 miles?🤔. I'll pass😂.
