Design, Practicality and Boot Space
The e-Vito is currently in its third generation and has always been among the best-looking electric vans on the market. Its exterior features sleek lines and a classic Mercedes-Benz front grille that some business owners will find hard to resist.
The e-Vito's interior is the same as the normal van, so it will fit the bill for most businesses. However, if work requires you to rack up the miles on the road, the e-Vito might not be the choice. Its low roof makes it feel cramped inside, which is worsened if there are three people in the front.
Mercedes have got rid of the compact L1 version, so only L2 (Long) and L3 (Extra-Long) are available. The entry-level L2 has a maximum payload of 882kg and a load volume of 6.0m3. Go for L3, and you get an extra 230mm in length which increases load volume to 6.6m3. However, the payload decreases to 847kg.
Interior and Trims
The e-Vito's interior is what you'd traditionally expect from a van; it's no-frills and is built to last. Even so, it does include a few nice touches, such as black fabric seats, an eight-way adjustable driver's seat, and turbine-style air vents. It will serve you well for the entirety of your lease, but if you want a premium edge to the interior, look towards the Vauxhall Vivaro-e.
On the dashboard is a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system that includes a DAB radio, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, Bluetooth, and two USB sockets. The system is decent and easy to read, but the screen is relatively small and not as high-tech as other systems found in the Vivaro-e or Ford Transit Custom PHEV.
Two trims are available for the e-Vito: Progressive and Premium.
Progressive comes with 17-inch steel wheels, halogen lights, electrical steering, a twin co-driver seat, semi-automatic air conditioning, a heated driver's seat, twin side loading doors, 180-degree opening rear doors, a reverse camera, active brake assist, attention assist, and cruise control.
Premium adds to this with 17-inch light alloy wheels, a chrome grille, adaptive brake lights, 4-way lumbar support for the driver's seat, a leather steering wheel, front and rear parking sensors, and front fog lights.
Power and Performance
The e-Vito comes with an 85kW electric motor powered by a 66kWh lithium-ion battery. The motor powers the front wheels to propel the van forward and is paired with a single-speed automatic transmission.
The electric motor comes with 116bhp and a top speed of 75mph. However, what will interest you most is its range of up to 162 miles, a huge increase from the previous e-Vito. This is extremely competitive and is on par with rivals like the Vivaro-e.
Charging for the e-Vito is also very good. Using a 7kW home charger, it can charge from 0-100% in around eight hours and has rapid-charging capabilities, so it can charge from 10-80% using an 80kW charger in just 35 minutes.
On the road, the e-Vito is a pleasant drive. The electric motor is responsive and picks up from a standstill very quickly, which is handy if you often rush from one job to another. It also easily makes its way up to motorway speeds; however, once it gets there, it feels slightly strained. It's best to stay around 55-60mph rather than 70+.
The main thing to consider when driving the e-Vito is the three modes that alter the system to cut power and save battery. At the same time, you'll also need to consider the different brake recuperation levels, which vary how hard you brake when you take your foot off the throttle. The top 'D-' brakes so much that you hardly need to use your left foot, making motorway driving a breeze.
