- Comments Off on Electric Conversion Vans: When Can You Order One?
Electric vehicles are all the rage, and if you drive a conversion van, you may be wondering when you can order an electric conversion van. The short answer is very soon, at least if you know where to look. But there are a few things you will want to know to make sure you understand when and where to get your electric conversion van.
Current State of Electric Conversion Vans
To start, the selection of electric conversion vans is still currently limited. While you can typically find traditionally powered conversion vans from Ram, GMC, Ford, and Chevrolet, not all of these already have electric vans available.
The Ram electric conversion van is slated to be among the most popular, and it will be available very soon. It should hit dealerships during the second half of this year, and Paul Sherry Conversion Vans can give you more specific information. Meanwhile, Ford already offers the E-Transit Van, its electric version of the van that is used for most of the brand’s conversions.
You will still have to wait for a Chevrolet electric conversion van as the brand is starting its electric lineup with other models, not vans. GMC doesn’t have any set plans for an electric conversion either. The closest thing is GM’s BrightDrop EV600, which began production this year.
Keep in mind that just because a van is available as an electric vehicle, that doesn’t mean that converters are working on it. Some models, like the Ram electric conversion van, are more likely to have more conversions because of their popularity.
There may also be delays due to supply chain issues or production capacity. The best way to stay up-to-date with the state of electric conversion vans is to talk to your conversion van dealership. They will have the latest information.
Future Availability of Electric Conversion Vans
As mentioned, you should expect Ram electric conversion vans to be hitting dealerships in the very near future. The BrightDrop EV600 will also be arriving soon, but it is still to be seen whether that is a popular option for conversions.
Overall, you should start to see an increase in the availability of electric conversion vans later this year, with a more solid increase in the next year or two. Within a few years, expect them to be very widely available. That being said, you can always expect Paul Sherry Conversion Vans to be at the forefront of the trend, being one of the first dealerships to offer electric conversion vans.
Factors to Consider When Ordering an Electric Conversion Van
In many ways, buying an electric conversion van is very similar to buying any other conversion van. You will need to think about the cost and the customization options, as well as features like infotainment, safety, and comfort.
But there are also some considerations that are unique to conversion vans. Most importantly, you want to look at the range and charging time. This is especially true if you plan on taking the van on any long drives, as you want to confirm that it can handle your plans.
As with any other auto you buy, you should always take your time to compare manufacturers and models before you choose an electric conversion van. Look at reliability and compare warranties in addition to all of the features and the electric range.
