Which Are The Best Small Electric Vans?

Electric vans are efficient, good for the environment and cost a lot less to run than diesel alternatives. They’re on the rise, with more consumers and businesses turning to electric vehicles for their needs instead of expensive, petrol alternatives.

But why are they so great? Well first is the impact on the environment. Electric vans do not produce any harmful emissions as they drive around, improving the air quality and reducing an individual or business’s impact on the environment.

Another reason is running costs, with the cost per mile of electricity being considerably lower than other fuels. Many people are buying electric because of the government plug-in van grant, which can get you 35% off the purchase price for small vans, up to a maximum of £2500. This is a significant saving, especially if you’re a business with a lot of vans.

Here at Vanaways, we pride ourselves on the great selection of electric vans we offer. Here are a few of the best small electric vans you can get.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"I recently bought a new car from this company and had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Tyler and Steve C were both brilliant to deal with – friendly, professional and incredibly helpful throughout the whole process. They took the time to answer all my questions and made everything straightforward and stress-free. The customer service was excellent and I never felt pressured at any point. Both Tyler and Steve C really went above and beyond to make sure everything was sorted and that I was happy with the car. I couldn’t recommend them enough and would definitely buy from them again in the future. Thanks again for such a great experience!"
