There is a video on You Tube about a couple of climbers that took the first very basic one of these vans right down to climb in the Sierra Nevada. Nothing like this, theirs was self converted, but totally planned the trip and only got stuck once somewhere remote when they had to use their little generator. Now there are many more charging stations in Europe. I really like this, thanks for the video, lovely to see your baby. Happy New Year from France. And the price is please?

I like the concept of this and don't see any problem touring with it, 200-300 miles a day with a recharge at lunch would be fine. But some of the design is just so disjointed. Over 400AHrs of leisure battery, but no solar? It would be OK if you could fast charge them at the same time as the traction battery, but no you need to plug in to the mains and recharge overnight and as pointed out most campsite electrics wouldn't be sufficient to charge traction battery too. What they need is a system that can provide 12V dc and 230V ac direct from the traction battery. Then you hit a quick charge point before you stop for the night and have plenty of power. Those lever switches and analogue voltmeter came out of the Ark, and whose idea was it to situate them in the easiest place to damage them (as well as physical damage do they not know that water and electrics are a bad idea?).
@austinedwards1918

Instead of using another pitch you could alternate charging and use. If I came onto a camp site I would plug in for my leisure batteries then when I'm out and about i would charge the car battery which should remain fully charged before i leave the campsite thus saving the grief of an extra outlay.

Some people have made a "bridge" to use the passenger seat to extend the bed length. Maybe V2 could have something like this integrated into the design. Also good to know that Cleeverly EVs have partnered with Muxsan to offer the underbody 17.5 KW battery extensions in the UK. This brings a 40kw EVN200 to a very stable 200 miles range and removes rapid gate and improves the charge curve. Stays on 50kw up to 90 plus %.

The battery “mains” is just under 3 kWH. So it will drain very rapidly if you - 1. Cook using it for any length of time, 2. Heat the van for any length of time, 3 boils water too often. So as a wild camper, in colder weather you will not have enough energy. OK for “fair weather” use on a camp site with mains power. If this is how you are generally going to use it, then it is a great solution for a far larger cost. Like all electric vehicles the ownership costs only become lower if you drive t least around 30,000 miles per year. Because of the alrg3 extra cost of the lithium-ion battery energy supply. The only benefit I can see is that you will still ale to sell the vehicle in ten years time when they have tried to pretty much outlaw any fossil fuel.vehicle on the road. If I were in the market - at 60,000 pound plus for a campervan, I would seriously consider this electric one. But probably still buy a larger diesel/gas based hard top panel van based vehicle, with far more space and facilities, to use over the next ten years at least. Interesting - but electric based vehicles and battery technology still has a long way to go - both in improving the technology/range and the cost.

A tremendous set up for the leisure battery. Love the van, great spec and I would absolutely buy one but only as a day van. Not because of the size but the limitation of the range. It’s a great one for the future but we need the infrastructure first. I guess it brings up the age old chicken and egg question. Do we need infrastructure first so people buy electric vehicles, or do we need electric vehicles first to create a demand for the infrastructure? Great review though 👍🏻

Nicely done. My last EV had a range less than this and I travelled the country in it, albeit fairly slowly. But whenever I stopped to charge for 30 mins, I thought, 'Now, if only this were a campervan, I could have a cup of tea and a little power nap!' It would be a lovely relaxed way to travel. Today's electric cars, like my current one, have a range of 250-300 miles and charge very quickly, but I actually think spending more time charging is much less of an issue in a van.

Nissan is doing some interesting work with Vehicle to Grid using the batteries in these vehicles to power buildings. Therefore, as a secondary vehicle, you could potentially charge it up with cheaper power and draw on this during the day when power is more expensive. Islington Council is involved in a scheme where they are powering the town hall off 5 of these vans. Could be an added bonus if you go down the EV camper route.

Nice to see the inclusion of the induction hob. Gas in a small space has always seemed like a bad idea. I have seen at least one upgrade by Nissan to a 65kwh battery for a more realistic 150 to 180 mile range. No one needs to drive for 3 hours without stopping (it's supposed to be a leisure vehicle). Nissan are inefficient, my Zoe goes a lot further than the unladen van for same battery size as Nissan are still using a much older technology without any thermal management. Otherwise nice layout also available in a single berth downstairs More vans are on the way, this is a good start, change has to happen - poor air quality sucks
@chrisgavin

I might be wrong on this, but I think the nv200 battery is different from the Leaf ones and they have thermal management on the vans but not on the cars. That being said, there is a 62kWh Leaf out already but no sign of an env200 van with this bigger pack. I reckon this size pack in the van would give Nissan the lead over anything else available and allow them to 'refresh' this product too. A realistic 200 mile range could be enough to get people touring on electric I reckon.

Why not? You'll need to stop every few hours for a piss/charge, but that's probably not _that_ different from what you do now. Just make a little bit more of the journey in exchange for fucking the planet up rather less. Maybe we should all just decide that towing our houses round with us isn't a very low-carbon way to travel and we should just stop doing that and do something else instead (like go on the train and rent a(n electric) van when you get there...) Things _have_ to change or we are all fucked. You get to choose how you personally will zero your emissions.

Spot on. I'll be switching my current highly efficient, low emissions diesel for an even more efficient and lower emissions new one in about 8 years time. The environment damage that scrapping perfectly good vehicles and extracting the minerals for toxic batteries will be enourmous and then we will still be burning fossils fuels to provide the electricity to charge the batteries.

The dude can do whatever he wants. Maybe he keeps it on because he's in a camping zone next to other campers and he doesn't want to put it on and off everyone he leaves and enters the van. Even if there was no reason, he's free to use it whenever he wants. Better that than not using it outside, which he did when filming outside..

Whilst I have no doubt that, in time, electric camper vans and motorhomes will become a reality, I fear that this model is little more than a gimmick and a marketing exercise. That voltmeter on the panel looks awful (even if this were the 1970’s) and it is showing well over 50 Volts, suggesting the 4 x 105Ah Lithium batteries are being used in series - nothing wrong with that, but by the time the house batteries are at their lower cut off level (assuming there is a BMS) they will still be at around 42V, making over 80% of that meter scale useless - have Sussex Campervans never heard of a Victron BMV700 series power meter? As for the habitation area being all electric, those 4 lithium batteries (105Ah @ 12V) contain around 5KWh of usable power, so that heater (looks around 1KW) will totally deplete the house batteries in 5 hours. Add some induction hob time (or indulging in your hairdryer addiction) and that drops to even less time. That will dictate you using this van only on a camp site in colder climates, or you could deplete the driving/traction battery by discharging it into the house battery as you suggest, but at what efficiency? I fully accept that we are phasing out fossil fuel usage (in our vehicles at least, baseload electricity generation will probably continue well beyond 2030, and some of what gets fed into the power grid will end up in electric vehicles) but until we have practical electric only vans and trucks in larger numbers with ranges that would work beyond the inner cities, and commercially available in the wider marketplace, vans like this will be a “day van” or at best a “camp site only” or “summer festival” special for those looking to virtue signal how “green” they are. I hope, for my kids and your son and any future siblings he has, that these vehicles do evolve and become practical replacements for their fossil fuelled forebears of today, but unless they offer an equivalent or better experience compared to today’s vehicles, I fear that the camper van/motorhome concept (other than as a “day van” ) may be lost over time.
