Electric Car Rankings & The Newest Data
Following the recent release of new data from Nextgreencar.com, it is clear that the electric vehicle market is a strong and progressive one. The statistics revealed that the number of electric vehicles on our UK roads has increased considerably, from 3,500 in 2013 to approximately 85,000 by the end of 2016. Not only that, but there are 5,000 electric vans on our roads.
As a result of the growing market, there is now more choice available to those looking to add an electric van to their fleet. With so many characteristics to consider, used van specialists Van Monster has ranked some of the most popular electric vans on our roads against characteristics such as battery range, speed and power to help you make an informed decision when choosing the next addition to your fleet.
