Default Electric Delivery Van

Here comes the future.... an electric delivery van.

https://newatlas.com/chanje-v8070-electric-van/52217/

The range is only 65 miles, but I'm wondering how far it can be extended with a gas generator and solar.

You can bet the UPS wouldn't get ones with a rollout like that. Too much time at stops. They sure do keep track of that kind of stuff.

I guess they are getting into electric as the UK have banned Diesels completely and they will all be scrapped by 2040 (not sure about the rest of Europe) and Tesler have announced their electric trucks coming in 2019. Oh well my driving time will probably be over prior an affordable electric B RV becoming available so I will stick to what I have.

You very likely won't need to drive it.
