GUIDE: Electric vans - electric fleet transition powered by real-world data
With the UK aiming to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles from 2030, businesses are beginning to focus on fleet electrification across all vehicle segments, including the practical challenges of incorporating electric vans into a commercial vehicle fleet.
As technology becomes more advanced, a growing number of vehicles are being built with intelligent systems to help motorists. Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, or ADAS, is a term used to describe these smart features.

Over time tyres naturally leak air so regular checks are important. Consult your handbook for the correct pressures (and increase pressures for heavy loads as recommended).
