More businesses are moving to electric vans and utes. Running costs are lower than diesel. Fewer moving parts also means less time off the road for servicing. As more platforms arrive with genuine payload and range, electric is becoming a practical fleet choice.
Electric vehicles need a different fit-out approach. Weight costs an electric vehicle payload and range at the same time. Battery placement adds a further constraint. Batteries often sit under the floor, so standard screw-into-floor fixing isn’t always appropriate. We design every fit-out around payload, range and battery layout from the start.
Fit-outs are installed to OE mounts and bonded tracking, not permanent modification. On an electric vehicle, that’s a safety consideration as much as a design one — bonded tracking means no drilling near the battery underneath
