I had a very good exsperience purchasing an ev van from Electric Van Man and his team. Jaden was the sales person who accompanied me on a test drive. He was able to answer all of my questions and went into great detail about the van and driving /charging a ev. Jaden also provided me with his contact details so i could call and text him, Which enabled us to have a smooth part-exchange of my truck fot the purchase of my Ev van. I would also like to thank Caroline,who provided my payment invoices and replied to my emails very promptly. Great sevice and communication from the team. David Turrell.
Fully recommend Paul and Caroline, while we didn’t buy a vehicle through them Paul’s knowledge of electric vans is outstanding and he was able to talk us through so many options and answer all of our questions, giving us the confidence to choose the most suitable option for us. We would advise anyone looking to buy an electric van to contact Paul and Caroline before doing so.
I recently purchased a van from EVM. The vehicle was my first electric vehicle, Jaden took the time not only to show to me the van but also took time to explain and show me the ins and outs of owning and using an EV. The van is in great condition and came ready for the road. Communication was great and any issues were sorted out quickly. Help was also offered in regards to getting things like a home charger, apps for getting on when out and about, and Info on wider community EV schemes. All in all a great experience. And I do not regret taking the leap into the world of EV vans.

Pauls Comment: This partnership could be brilliant for the electric van world! Ever since Hyundai bought into the ill-fated Arrival I have been expecting some Van output from them. In the shrewd partnership from both companies I expect to see the output bringing the Commercial Vehicle Savvy and experience of Iveco, with the Electric Vehicle experience of Hyundai, who have produced some highly efficient and very competent electric cars over these last few years, and producing a lovechild of epic proportions. I expect it will give the established players something to think about, especially building on the prowess of the eDaily!
Turin, Italy, 1st February 2024/Seoul, South Korea, 1st February. Hyundai Motor Company and Iveco Group (EXM: IVG) today announced signing a supply agreement of an IVECO-badged all-electric light commercial vehicle for Europe, based on Hyundai’s Global eLCV platform. The new vehicle will join Iveco Group’s electric light commercial vehicle lineup, enhancing the Group’s LCV portfolio alongside the iconic IVECO Daily.
The supply agreement signing ceremony, which took place at Hyundai Motor Company’s headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, was attended by Jaehoon Chang, President and CEO of Hyundai Motor Company, Ken Ramírez, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Commercial Vehicle & Hydrogen Business at Hyundai Motor Company, Gerrit Marx, CEO of Iveco Group, and Luca Sra, President, Truck Business Unit, Iveco Group.
Hyundai Motor and Iveco Group initiated their partnership in March 2022 and have since generated concrete results related to hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles, including the co-development of the eDAILY FCEV and the launch of the E-WAY FCEV city bus. The new agreement not only signifies an extension of their partnership to encompass a broader array of eco-friendly lineups, but also underscores the shared commitment of both companies to accelerate the transition toward carbon-neutral mobility and transport.
The IVECO-badged vehicle will be the first export model to apply Hyundai’s new Global all-electric Light Commercial Vehicle (eLCV) platform, a dedicated global EV platform made for commercial vehicles ranging from GVW 2.5 tons to 3.5 tons. The innovative platform features Hyundai’s latest technology for next generation BEVs with a low-floor design that allows enhanced usability for cargo loading and carrying, designed to fit the emerging needs of future electrified Purpose Built Vehicles in the market.
Under the partnership, Hyundai will manufacture and supply the IVECO-badged chassis cab for the European market and Iveco Group will locally customise and distribute the complete vehicles exclusively through its sales channels. Iveco Group’s new product based on Hyundai’s Global eLCV platform will have its launch at this year’s IAA Transportation 2024, planned to be held from September 16 – 22, 2024, in Hannover, Germany.
Luca Sra, President, Truck Business Unit, Iveco Group, said, “The unique partnership between Iveco Group and Hyundai Motor Company is making another significant step forward. The introduction of this new all-electric vehicle is particularly exciting for the European market, where urban and suburban distribution and delivery are crucial missions for logistics operators. We are confident that this agreement will not only strengthen our product offering but will also deepen our relationship with Hyundai, paving the way for continued collaborative projects that advance a more sustainable society.”
“We are delighted to further expand our partnership’s product portfolio by leveraging our new, all-electric light commercial vehicle platform,” said Ken Ramírez, Executive Vice President and Head of Global Commercial Vehicle & Hydrogen Business at Hyundai Motor Company. “We believe our Global eLCV platform, coupled with Iveco Group’s expertise in the European market, will be a transformative force in the LCV market, contributing to the acceleration of a carbon-neutral future in Europe.”
