INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRIC VANS EPISODE 1/5, INC MAXUS E DELIVER 3

EV Channels Review

This episode introduces the Maxus E Deliver 3, a medium-sized electric van, highlighting its practical approach for commercial use. The reviewer emphasizes that while it lacks a futuristic interior, its familiar design makes it an accessible transition from conventional vans. Key advantages include standard air conditioning, a good armrest, and a rear-view camera. The van offers two battery sizes (35kWh and 52.5kWh) with ranges from 100 to 151 miles, and importantly, DC charging is standard. The reviewer notes the E Deliver 3's competitive pricing compared to rivals like the Vito and Vivaro, especially after government grants. While build quality is deemed acceptable for the UK market, the pre-production model had minor issues with pallet fitment and interior storage. The video also touches on range considerations, payload impact, and the financial benefits of electric vans, including lower running costs and government incentives, making it a compelling option for sole traders and businesses.
