When VW Commercial asked if I was interested in checking out the new eCrafter, I timed it with needed to move flats. I was nervous about parking, but always managed to find a spot and even parallel parked this behemoth on a busy downtown street here in Berlin. I also lent it to friends who needed to move stuff! It’s surprising how many people I knew needed a work van! On one charge I was able to make 4 trips back and forth to move my flat, only a 5km drive. But two other friends took the car around the city for their moves and I still have 50km left. Of course electric vans are perfect for single trips around the city! But I have to ask does a transporter van like the eCrafter make sense if it’s electric?

Electric vans represent a tiny fraction of overall sale
