Thinking about the switch to eLCVs?

Fortunately, we’re eLCV experts – so we’re best placed to help strategically with your transition, as well as answer the practical questions you might have.

The right van for the job
What’s the load?
Special load
Do you need tailored racking or conversion?
Wheelbase
What size is suitable for the load type?
Height and weight
What are vehicle limits on your routes? Is the van 3.5+ tonnes in gross weight ? If so, it needs a tachograph.
Cab capacity
How many passengers will the van need to carry?
Access
How will you load and unload your vehicle?
What shape are your journeys?
Journey lengths, routes and destinations will influence what size van, wheelbase and fuel type you will go for.
For example, are journeys usually inside Ultra Low Emission Zones (ULEZs)? Perhaps it’s worth considering electric (eLCVs)? More on those later…
Are you ready to go electric?
As it’s only a matter of time before eLCVs rule the roads, it’s worth speaking with us to see if it’s the right time for you. We answer questions like these:
- How will we phase the transition?
- Will fuel savings cover upfront costs?
- How will we onboard stakeholders and drivers?
- Where will charging points go and at what cost?
What image do you want to have?
Your business image can easily be overshadowed by practical factors. So it’s worth stopping to consider what your choice of van says to your customers.
Think fuel type, spec, colour, livery, even the inside – are the goods orderly and secure enough?
What needs do your drivers have?
Noone knows the roads and day-to-day challenges better than your drivers. Make sure you get the right van for the job by having a chat with them.
Get their views on even the smallest details – fittings and accessories, linings, rear parking sensors, security trackers, livery.
