Taxi manufacturers LEVC launching VN5 electric van in Europe
LEVC (London Electric Vehicle Company) is now launching the new electric van, VN5, in Europe following its UK launch last November.
Designed, engineered and manufactured at LEVC’s production plant in Ansty, Coventry - the UK’s only dedicated electric vehicle factory - VN5 can enhance the green footprint of any business.
LEVC’s VN5 uses the same proven eCity range-extender powertrain technology utilised in the TX electric taxi. Providing flexibility, VN5 offers the best of both worlds; zero emissions capability without the range-anxiety, boasting a total driving range of over 300 miles (489km).
VN5 offers a competitive and attractive ownership model to both large fleets and small businesses, with low operating costs and a comprehensive warranty. VN5 is also eligible for a number of EV grants and schemes across Europe.
In addition, LEVC is launching a new telematics service which offers productivity and cost savings for business of all sizes. Available to order on both TX electric taxi and VN5 electric van, LEVC Telematics is an integrated fleet management solution to optimise the way vehicles are used – delivering live data to track vehicles as smartly and efficiently as possible.
Joerg Hofmann, LEVC CEO, said: “VN5 sets new standards for green commercial vehicles offering no range anxiety, real driver appeal and a stand-out design shared with our iconic London taxi. We have created a high quality, hard-working van with zero emissions and long-distance capability. As well as offering favorable operating benefits, VN5 fulfils the growing demand from both businesses and consumers for cleaner, more sustainable commercial vehicles.”
