To everyone wondering why so low range why not bigger battery, the reason is simple: Most people who drive these vans do so with an EEA B class driving license. This allows a maximum vehicle weight of 3.5 tonnes. So with a bigger battery, the payload will become tiny or people will need the C1 class license, but people would not want that. We should start a petition anyway to raise the weight limit for Evs

Also, I am safe I will put in like a 2-4kW gas generator for emergencies and topping off situations. But, mainly an eco travelers vehicle. Sprinter vans for housing and traveling is ideal and real; tons of videos and KZfaqrs do this. Also, a channel called "Route de Sol" made a DYI bigger truck full solar and batteries. Look them up; they are going from Alaska to the tip of South America on only solar.

It fits flat to the wall so it will only affect the cargo space minimally, by a few inches. Each of those power wall has up to 14 kWh. energy storage, so you can add more battery packs if you want to increase the range even further.

Don't complain about the charging port. This car isn't intended for private use. It's for companies with vehicle fleets that will install their own charging stations at their depots. And your testing procedure is just totally wrong for this kind of car. The usage of vehicles like this is: Drive 10 - 15 km then stop the car (from depot to delivery area). Repeat the following procedure for about 8 hours: Start the car, drive 50-100 meters, stop the car, wait for 2-3 minutes (working in the delivery area). After that you drive about 10 - 15 km (back to the depot). Because that's what postmen do.

haha Helga, nice one. To the size of the transporter its normal for any 3.49t transporter. Driving the ICE things for a long time now. But there are even longer and extra extra high roof at least for the Sprinter types available. But with those you cant get into some "roads" here in germany^^ Sometimes you cant make a left or right turn bc of parking cars. Thats where the fun begins. THX for the vid. PS: DHL has an electric transporter but over 3.49t close to 5t i read somewhere. Would be nice if you have connections there ;)

I would love a long range chassis. I only need a 500kg payload. I fear I will have to retro fit a sprinter/transit with Tesla batteries, plus have a trailer with another 150 kWh

Imagine the consumption with the cargo area at full capacity... Having only the battery of an e-golf is useless...
