Re: EV Van Drivers, give us an update…

The tories said they would scrap the petrol/diesel  ban due to come into force in 2030 if they got back into power.....let's hope they get back in....
Shame the site doesn't have a dislike button.

Ive got no desire to go electric at all and hopefully the next government will see sense and abolish it.

That comment is nearly as daft as you don’t need a van mounted system and I don’t need an electric reel that we’ve all lived through.
I’m 2 months electric and the running costs are 30% of what I was spending.
I’m happy with that and appreciate things  may change  but see sense, what on earth does that mean?

The whole green agenda is nonsense.

However, we’ve had a brand new Kia EV3 since August and its hands down the best car we’ve ever owned.

I’m a massive, and I mean massive, petrol head, but there is a place for EV’s.

For our type of work, and EV van is pretty much perfect, unless you’re doing loads of motorway miles.

Disclaimer - I absolutely despise the green agenda and owning and ev is purely based on what we wanted rather than ‘saving the planet’

I like using a diesel heater for window cleaning which will be a pain if im forced to lease an electric van. I just can't go back to cold water cleaning

Well there’s nothing stopping you having a diesel heater? Sure, you’ll need a separate tank, but that’s no big deal.

That’s not a reason to dislike EVs.

I agree with you the net zero policies are absolutely ludicrous, we are systematically destroying our own country over it.

That'll soon change when the government charges you per mile for road tax!😄👍
price higher/work harder!

Having a separate diesel tank in the van will have to do but it's much easier/convenient to run a diesel heater in a diesel van.

Pay per mile will eventually apply to all motorists, it won’t end at ev’s. Still cheaper to run an EV even with Pay per mile.

The imbeciles that vote labour need to give there heads a wobble.

Having a seperate diesel tank for your heater means you can run it on red diesel too. Win win.
It's a game of three halves!

Running diesel heaters on red diesel is not recommended at all. It cokes up the burner prematurely...
