LEVC VN5 van supports chilled deliveries for London butchers

Clerkenwell-based artisan butcher Turner & George is offering zero emission deliveries of its fresh meat & delicatessen goods during National Butchers’ Week (March 8-14th) in a refrigerated LEVC VN5.

Recently launching a ‘Click & Collect’ service, Turner & George’s London-based clients can now choose a local delivery option too – and for this week, a refrigerated LEVC VN5 will bring those online orders directly to customers’ doors, cleanly and quietly.

Joerg Hofmann, LEVC CEO, commented: “LEVC offers high quality, flexible and bespoke VN5 conversions and, thanks to our unique eCity range extender technology, VN5 has the ability to keep goods cool, operate with zero emissions and eliminate any range or charging anxiety. It is the perfect solution for companies in the food and medical specialist sectors looking to switch to an electric van while also needing the reliability of a consistent temperature-controlled environment.​”

With a pure EV range of over 60 miles (98 km) and a total flexible range of 304 miles (489 km) VN5 is ideally suited to urban deliveries in zero emission mode, as well as longer journeys outside of town.

LEVC is currently offering its customers free charging for one year upon purchase of any new VN5 electric van, after partnering with the nationwide charge point provider, bp pulse. The bp pulse charging network features more than 8,000 pulse point charge points across the United Kingdom. New customers can claim the offer with proof of their VN5 purchase and will receive an access card that activates any charge point on bp pulse’s extensive network.

Manufacture of LEVC’s new VN5 electric van is now fully underway at the British company’s production facility in Ansty, Coventry.
