Pricing for the new Mercedes-Benz eVito electric van will start from under £40,000, the manufacturer has announced.

The pure electric van offers 85 (70) kW of power, 300 Nm of torque, a 92-mile average range and a six-hour charging time, based on three-phase charging.

It is available in two lengths and priced from £39,895 ex VAT for the eVito Van Pure L2, and £40,415 ex VAT for the eVito Van Pure L3. The vehicle is also eligible for the plug-in van grant, giving customers a 20% reduction on the vehicle purchase price, up to a maximum of £8,000.

The front-wheel drive eVito has been aligned with the current Vito range and offers a standard specification that mirrors the Pure model line, including a height and rake adjustable steering wheel, hill start assist, electrically adjustable heated mirrors, sliding doors on both sides of the vehicle, wood flooring and an adaptive brake light.

In addition to the Pure specification, customers will also get Mercedes PRO connect, heated drivers’ seat, air conditioning, a four-metre charging cable and a CanTrack vehicle tracker as standard.

The L2 model offers 6.0 m3 cargo volume, 2,277 kg kerb weight, 3,200 kg GVW, and a payload of 923 kg.

The L3 offers 6.6 m3 cargo volume, 2,302 kg kerb weight, 3,200 kg GVW, and a payload of 898 kg.

In addition to the Pure, the eVito Progressive will also be available and includes colour coded bumpers, full wheel covers, front fog lights, headlight assist, 75mph speed limiter, lumbar support and electrically foldable mirrors, all as standard.

The eVito Progressive van L2 will be available from £41,600 ex VAT and £42,120 ex VAT for the L3 variant.

For both specification levels, Mercedes PRO connect comes as standard and is free for the first three years. Customers will also receive remote access, digital drivers’ log, drive style monitoring, real-time variable servicing monitoring, parking time monitor and geo-fence options.

The eVito is available to order from the nationwide Mercedes-Benz Vans dealer network from today.
