The Volkswagen ABT e-Transporter was Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles’ first all-electric van – an aftermarket conversion of its evergreen Transporter model. It offers all the versatility of the popular mid-sized van but with 82 miles of all-electric range for life in the city. Volkswagen isn’t making it any more but there are some still available to lease from the original production run.
Key highlights
The ABT e-Transporter takes everything that’s good about the Transporter and adds electric power. There’s little to no compromise in terms of space with the batteries tucked under the floor – that means you get 6.7m3 in the cargo bay while the payload is still a competitive 996kg and you can tow up to 1,500kg. It’s also available as a standard panel van or kombi, with a second row of seats for passengers. Inside, it’s just like any other VW: modern, practical and well-equipped as standard.
Performance and range
Replacing the diesel engine is a 37.3kWh battery that will give you 82 miles of range – enough for life around towns and cities while the 50kW-capable charging means you can keep it topped up whenever you stop off. Just like the regular Transporter, the ABT conversion is a joy to drive with an ergonomic driving position and agile handling that helps to make easy work of narrow, busy streets.

Similar models
While there is limited stock available of the ABT e-Transporter, there are plenty of alternatives in the medium-sized sector. Newer vans like the Vauxhall Vivaro Electric, Peugeot e-Expert and Citroen e-Dispatch all offer much greater range, while the Mercedes-Benz eVito may appeal to those wanting a more premium van.

There are numerous reasons to think about opting for a lease deal on the VW e-Transporter electric van. The cost-effectiveness of leasing stands out when compared to outright purchase or alternative buying methods. Additionally, leasing provides the advantage of staying up-to-date with the latest technology, offering the flexibility to upgrade your van hassle-free every few years.
Embrace sustainability by selecting a GRIDSERVE lease and transition towards a more electric future. As an added incentive, enjoy three months of free charging on the extensive GRIDSERVE Electric Highway network.
What the e-Transporter lacks in range it more than makes up for in other areas. It has a spacious cargo area that has a payload capacity of up to 996kg, along with an efficient electric powertrain and well-equipped cabin.聽
On the whole, the e-Transporter is a really practical, efficient and versatile electric van that鈥檚 great for individuals or businesses that operate in urban areas on a consistent basis.
Though 82 miles is more than enough for inner-city driving, you may want to think about how to maximise the range you鈥檒l get on a daily basis. For example, if you drive less aggressively and make the most of regenerative braking, you can look after the range. It鈥檚 also worth keeping your tyre pressures on point to avoid a reduction in range, along with going easy on the use of heating and air-con.
With GRIDSERVE, you can lease the e-Transporter for either 24, 36, 48 or 60 months, so between two and five years. Simply pick the option that best suits your needs and build your bespoke deal from the options above to find out how much your payments would be.
