FARIZON SUPERVAN ELECTRIC VAN REAL-WORLD WALKTHROUGH & DRIVE AUSTRALIA

EV Channels Review

The Farizon Supervan presents a compelling electric van option for Australian businesses, particularly the Short Wheelbase Low Roof variant reviewed here. Its futuristic design, practical features like wide-opening barn doors, and a spacious interior with ample storage are significant positives. The 83 kWh LFP battery offers respectable charging speeds (140 kW DC, 11 kW AC) and useful V2L functionality. On the road, the Supervan provides adequate acceleration for urban environments and highway cruising, with a comfortable ride for a van, comparable to some Mercedes-Benz offerings. However, the driver assistance systems, particularly lane keeping assist, are noted as being "romantic" and "naggy," requiring frequent manual correction and not setting a new benchmark. While the infotainment system supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, the lack of wireless charging is a minor drawback. Overall, the Supervan is a practical and capable electric workhorse, especially for businesses considering the switch from ICE vans due to its lower running costs and competitive pricing.
