Nissan Electric Van Leasing for Business Fleets

We’ve put together some more information around the Nissan EV van range, from battery range to key features and more, to help you decide which electric van is most suitable for your business needs.

Nissan Electric Van Models Available for Leasing

Nissan electric vans are seen as strong options when it comes to value, with a balance of good technology and reasonable cost. While not as prestigious as Mercedes or Volkswagen, Nissan EVs are robust and practical and have proven more than capable in a variety of working applications.

Due to a close partnership with Renault, these vehicles are very similar to the Renault Kangoo and Renault Master respectively, sharing engines, powertrains, and cargo capacities.

Nissan EV Van Range and Charging Considerations

The Nissan Townstar has a maximum driving range of 178 miles, while the Nissan Interstar can reach up to 285 miles on one charge.

While there are factors that may reduce the maximum range, modern electric vans have large batteries and can handle the vast majority of jobs as well as any diesel.

How to optimise your electric van:

  • Top-up charging is more efficient when you’re on the road. Don’t wait until the battery is low.
  • Leave full charging for overnight. It’s cheaper and doesn’t interfere with your day.
  • Plan your route. Most vans travel less than 30 miles in a day so a full charge should last quite a while.
  • Drive smoothly. Sharp acceleration wastes power, as does high speed. Steady driving extends your range.

Which Nissan Electric Van Is Right for Your Business

Local Electrician

The small Nissan Townstar electric van is ideal for carrying tools and electrical fittings, while making strong savings on fuel versus a similar diesel van.

Roofing Contractor

Roofing materials and equipment, including ladders, require a large van, so the electric Nissan Interstar would suit here. Most roofers work within a local area, well within any range concerns you might have.

Inner-City Florist

Depending on how many deliveries you complete in a day, you may find a use for either the Nissan Townstar or the Interstar. If you are delivering to a lot of inner-city locations, an electric van helps you avoid Low Emission Zone and Clean Air Zone charges.

Highway Maintenance

As Highway Maintenance vehicles tend towards larger vans, the Nissan Interstar would be suitable here. And with a range of 285 miles, travel distance should not be a concern. Remember to fit your Chapter 8 livery.
