More and more businesses are making efforts to reduce their environmental impact and keep in line with the UK government’s Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate. Choosing the right vehicle is imperative to meeting these goals, which is why we recommend Renault electric vans.
In this post, we’re going to talk about the Renault Trafic E-Tech, a 100% electric vehicle that combines practicality, reliability, and eco-consciousness. Whether you’re a small business owner with a single van or a fleet manager looking to expand or upgrade, the Trafic E-Tech is the perfect solution to power your business sustainably.
A look at the Renault Trafic E-Tech
The Trafic has long been a trusted partner for businesses across the UK, and now it’s gone electric. The E-Tech retains all the practicality and versatility of its diesel counterpart while delivering all the benefits of electric power.
- Reliable battery power: The Trafic E-Tech features a 52kWh battery, giving drivers a range of up to 186 miles on a single charge. This makes it ideal for both daily urban commutes and longer regional routes.
- Large load capacity: The Trafic E-Tech is ready to handle a wide variety of tasks. This impressive van has a load volume ranging from 5.8m³ to 8.9m³ and a payload capacity of up to 1,222kg.
- Various sizes to choose from: When buying your van from Norwich Truck and Van, you can choose from different body lengths and roof heights to suit your specific requirements while still offering a compact design.
Benefits for all business sizes
Whether you’re a one-person band, running a small business, or managing a large fleet of vehicles, the Renault Trafic E-Tech has something to offer everyone.
For small businesses
- Cost-effective: With lower running costs than traditional diesel vans, such as reduced fuel and maintenance expenses, the Trafic E-Tech helps keep money in your accounts.
- No congestion charges: Thanks to its zero-emission status, you can drive freely in low-emission zones without worrying about additional charges.
- Sustainable selection: If you’re serious about sustainability, then integrating an electric vehicle into your operations is a great step forward.
For larger businesses
- Green fleet expansion: The electric Trafic is a smart addition to any fleet, helping you meet corporate sustainability goals and show your customers and clients that you’re serious about a greener future.
- Compliance with regulations: As the government continues and strengthens its environmental policies, the Trafic E-Tech ensures your business stays ahead of the curve.
The Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate
The UK government’s Zero-Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate is already altering the vehicle landscape. By 2030, 70% of new van sales must be electric, and 2035 that percentage hits 100%. For businesses large and small, this means adopting cleaner, greener vehicles. The Renault Trafic E-Tech is a smart and simple route to compliance and avoiding potential penalties.
A greener future
The goal shouldn’t just be to meet regulations; it should also be about contributing towards a better environment for future generations by making choices that support sustainability. Choosing vehicles like the Trafic E-Tech means you and your business will be a part of the bigger picture, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and helping the UK reach its net-zero carbon emission targets.
Financial incentives
There are financial perks when investing in an electric vehicle. The government’s Plug-in Van Grant offers various discounts towards the cost of your new electric van, which you can read more about on the government’s Plug-in Van and Truck grant page.
