BLK Auto welcomes new EV cargo van to fleet

  • 18 March
Specialist vehicle importer and distributor BLK Auto is pleased to advise it has further expanded its Zero Emission fleet with the addition of a new battery electric cargo van.

The van has been built to support a ‘back-to-base’ operation, whereby vans are charged at a depot before their daily journeys are undertaken and then returned to the same depot for overnight charging, making it an ideal option for customers that are looking for easy pathways to decarbonise their vehicle fleets.

The new van complements the existing JAC N55EV Battery Electric light truck which is currently out to market throughout Australia, following successful trials in 2021.

BLK Auto Managing Director Jason Pecotic said:

“This new battery electric cargo van gives our customers another easy pathway for fleet decarbonisation as the world continues to push harder against carbon emissions.

“We are seeing consumers being gouged at the bowser across the globe right now. The transition to EVs is now an incredibly efficient money-saver and environmentally friendly alternative at the same time, without having to compromise on quality or capability.”
