02.09.2020
The workhorse you know and love, but with zero emissions!
The new zero emission ABT eTransporter, is Volkswagen’s first fully electric commercial vehicle, and it’s an exciting prospect for those looking to reduce their environmental impact, and running costs, whilst maintaining the Volkswagen quality and comfort they have become accustomed to.
Based on the long wheelbase Transporter T6.1 Transporter, the battery is cleverly hidden underneath, meaning no loss of space inside the vehicle.
Available as a panel van, with up to 82 mile range, and kombi van, with up to 80 miles range, in two initial trim levels, even the base model comes with enough features to make your day on the road an easy one. The Base trim arrives similar to the current Startline trim but includes the addition of climatic air-conditioning, heated front seats and rear parking sensors as standard. Move up to the Advance trim and you’ll find yourself in a vehicle similar to the Highline trim, with added LED front lights and high beam assist.
ABT e-line is a premium brand partner, and have built up their electric knowledge working with the wider Volkswagen Group. Their expertise on all things zero-emission make the ABT eTransporter an exciting new option for those looking for something a little different for their next commercial vehicle.
All models feature a 37.3kWh battery capacity and 83kW electric motor, with 200Nm maximum torque. This offers a charge time of 0-80% in just 45 minutes when using a 50kW DC rapid charger (CCS). Opt instead to charge at home at a 7.2kW wall box and you’ll be back up to 100% charge in just 5.5 hours.
