Modec Electric Van Hits the Road

 
 

 

IN A WORLD GONE MAD, AT LAST THERE’S A COMMERCIAL VEHICLE THAT MAKES SOUND ECONOMIC AND ENVIRONMENTAL SENSE.
Everyone is right to be concerned about the environment, but the reality is that you still have a business to run and customers to supply.

The Modec range is possibly the greatest leap forward in commercial vehicles since the internal combustion engine. Quiet, pollution free and with a carrying capacity to put most others in the shade, the Modec range is the future of urban delivery. Developing an impressive 102bhp and 300Nm of torque, Modec vans can carry two tonnes up to one hundred miles at fifty miles an hour with zero emissions... all from a single charge.

Modec is a sound business choice with zero congestion charges, zero road tax and zero operator licence requirements. All those zeros add up to big savings over the life of the vehicle - with close to zero effect on our environment.

The newly unveiled all-electric Modec delivery van has a 100 miles range, a top speed of 50 mph, and over two tons of carrying capacity. The Modec’s 70kW Zytec electric motor is powered by twin 288-volt sodium-nickel-chloride batteries (Li-Ion coming next year) which are partially replenished by the van’s regenerative breaking system. The battery pack sits behind the cab and can be swapped out for its eight-hour charge time. The Modec dodges London’s congestion tax as well as the road tax, goes 20,000 miles between services, and has a motor with only three moving parts. Currently only available in Britain.
