New LEVC light commercial van debuts in Europe

Perry Richardson

The new light commercial van from London EV Company (LEVC) has made its European debut at an exclusive preview event in Frankfurt, Germany.

Designed to meet rapidly increasing European demand for green, electrified commercial transport, the zero-emission capable light commercial van (LCV) draws on more than 70 years of knowledge from the same company that manufactures the world’s only purpose-built range extended electric taxi.

Based on the same architecture and proven e-City range extender technology as LEVC’s TX Taxi, of which 2,500 have now been sold, this second vehicle from LEVC will give European operators and drivers huge amounts of flexibility with an electric range of 80 miles and a combined petrol and EV range of 377 miles.

Targeting those who travel around 100 miles a day, LEVC’s LCV will offer ‘distribution to door’ – not just last mile – providing the link between out of town depots and city centres, capable of collecting goods outside of a major city in range extender mode, before switching to EV mode in an urban ultra-low emissions zone. This is currently a sector of the market dominated by one tonne medium-sized diesel vans.

LEVC’s success with the TX Taxi has proven that taxi drivers have become converts of green logistics, with huge benefits in terms of cost savings, while for commercial vehicle operators the e-City range extender technology takes away range anxiety once and for all.

LEVC CEO Joerg Hofmann said: “Future urban transport is already changing rapidly and we have a golden opportunity to bring something new and disruptive to this market. There is huge demand for a medium-sized zero emissions capable light van and our LCV is the perfect solution to the green logistics trend. This new van is durable, reliable, efficient, cost effective and high quality. Our goal is to be the European leader in green commercial mobility solutions.” 

Full details of the LCV will be revealed closer to its official launch in 2020.
