There are several types of electric vehicles, but the main options are fully electric and hybrid. Fully electric vehicles, like the Farizon electric van, run entirely on battery power and produce zero tailpipe emissions. They’re charged by plugging into a home, workplace or public charging point. Hybrid vehicles combine an electric motor with a petrol or diesel engine, while plug-in hybrids can also be charged externally. If you’re looking to make the switch to electric for your business, a fully electric van offers a practical way to travel without relying on traditional fuels.

Electric vans are a great option for businesses and drivers who want to reduce running costs and make the switch to more sustainable transport. They’re ideal for local deliveries, tradespeople, service engineers and businesses operating in towns and cities, where regular journeys and access to charging make going electric straightforward. With the Farizon electric van range, you can enjoy the benefits of zero tailpipe emissions while getting on with your working day.

Electric cars can be cheaper to run than petrol or diesel models, particularly if you charge at home using an off peak electricity tariff. Electricity can cost less per mile than fuel, and fully electric cars generally need less routine maintenance because they have fewer moving parts and no engine oil to change. The amount you could save will depend on your mileage, how and where you charge, and the vehicle you choose. Comparing your current running costs with those of a new electric car can help you work out whether making the switch could save you money.

Electric vans generally need less maintenance than petrol or diesel models because they have fewer moving parts. There’s no engine oil to change, and components such as the brakes often experience less wear thanks to regenerative braking. Your Farizon electric van will still need regular servicing, including checks on the tyres, brakes, suspension, battery and other key systems, to keep it running safely and efficiently. Keeping up with scheduled maintenance helps you get the most out of your van and keep your business moving.

Public charging stations are available across the UK, including at motorway service stations, supermarkets, car parks and dedicated charging hubs. You can use apps and online maps, such as Zapmap, to find charging points near you, check connector types and see which chargers are available. With a little planning, it’s easy to fit charging stops around your working day and keep your Farizon electric van ready for the road.

Charging an electric van can be cheaper than refuelling a petrol or diesel vehicle, particularly if you charge at home or at your business using an off peak electricity tariff. Public charging costs vary depending on the charging provider, speed and location, with rapid chargers generally costing more. By planning your charging around your journeys and making the most of lower electricity rates, you could reduce your running costs and keep your business moving for less.
