How to Find the Best Commercial Van For City Driving

 

For many business owners, city driving makes up a large part of their operations and for that, you need a commercial fleet that’s suited to these kinds of journeys. So, what should you look for?

In this blog, we explain some of the top features to look out for when selecting a van for city driving. 

Consider an electric van

Entering the city is likely to become more and more restricted for particular vehicles. Cities such as Bath and London have already introduced clean air zones to limit the amount of emission within the area - this means that vehicles not meeting the entry requirements will be charged. However, by going electric you can avoid this and prevent high charges every time you enter the zone!

Choose a smaller model

Of course, every business owner will need a different size van depending on their needs but when it comes to city driving, small and nippy is often best! Opting for a compact design means you can park much more easily and navigating tight roads will be a breeze!

Select the most fuel efficient option

If an electric van is not for you then you still need to think about the whether diesel or petrol vans are better. Choosing a petrol van could be the most fuel efficient if the majority of yoru journeys are in the city whereas diesel vehicles tend to operate better during long journeys. 

Think about going automatic

Since city driving involves a lot of stopping and starting, an automatic transmission could be more enjoyable to drive. Getting from A to B will be a smoother ride especially if you’re doing several stops.

Smart features

Why not invest in a van with smart features? There are many features that can improve city journeys such as hill start assist, auto start/stop systems and more. Be sure to thoroughly check out the spec of each van so you can find the best match to your needs.
