What are the most versatile vehicles offered by the auto world these days? In our opinion it is undoubtedly vans in all of their variations.
Equip a van with a couple of seat rows in the back and you’ve got yourself a bus, throw away everything and it’s a perfect transportation vehicle for your business, or you can even turn it into a house on wheels. Vans do sound perfect, but is there any way to improve these four-wheelers even further? Well, yes, why not electrify them!
In this episode we will be showing you the latest van newcomers equipped with fully electric and plug-in powertrains that offer environmentally friendly driving, torquey performance and noiseless operation not to disturb the ever grumpier inner city dwellers.

Car company rep: "Why won't are electric vehicles sell? We made them look untraditional and have a garbage range too… hmmmmMMMM…. I guess people dont want electric cars."
No. Electric cars are great; stop ruining electric cars. Tesla's roadster will have about 600 miles of range. THAT'S 10 TIMES the range of this crap Mercedes van. A vehicle meant to transport crap or families on road trips. YA CANT DO THAT WITH 60 MILES OF RANGE RETARDS!!! 60 MILES HA! What a joke and a half. If companies keep peddling these underpowered pieces of crap the public will lose interest in electric cars.
Very low hp for vans..
We need fast acceleration and great handling ambulance, live matters
Need more of this in America refuse to buy another Truck until its EV and over 150 miles Drive
i love you moia <3
I think it a great idea to make electric vans especially with the price of lithium batteries slowly declining but my thought would be to have a small gas generator as back up for recharging on extended trips. Come on guys lets figure a way to increase our mileage driven…say from southern california to Washington.
Your videos are informative but the way you talk is annoying(pretending to be something) and I am always hoping it ends early. I bet you don't talk like that in real life.
nice, thank you!
Hands down the worst voice narration ever… and that's saying something.
“Ever grumpier inner city dwellers”?
Nissan is now 40kw battery
i like the iveco its big but needs more hp like 200hp
Only living creatures are 'autonomous', not machines. It's sad to see how how English is becoming so intellectually stupefied and degenerated, that people don't even know that computer guided cars are not and will never be autonomous.
Sigh, they need to be putting at least 60KWH battery packs in these vans. Compliance vehicles, give us EV vans with a decent range !!!
NGEN Eyes looks like the maserati ghibli! however i see the PARTNER a lot in out place 😀 Thanks For The Informations!
being physically disabled an all electric van would be ideal for my needs. Could you do some research on this adaptation of an all electric van. Thank You.
Thanks for another electric episode. It took me some time to see that Moia van, was starting to suspect a clickbait thumbnail.
Its a wonderful shift
Electric transport became famous for its lower driving costs and since it is becoming more common families and business owners could greatly benefit from getting a roomy electric vehicle with good cargo space. Here are 10 electric vans that already exist in 2018. Would you ever consider getting one of these?
