About the eDaily
The Iveco eDaily is designed to deliver the same extensive range of capabilities operators have come to value in its diesel sibling. Thanks to its strong truck-based chassis, this eLCV is the only vehicle in its class capable of towing 3.5-tonnes. A choice of battery configurations via an modular battery layout allows operators to tailor an eDaily to their individual mission, balancing payload with range. The van’s 80kW rapid charging capacity allows the eDaily to gain 62 miles of range in just 30 minutes with a total range on a full charge of up to 248 miles.
Iveco UK Light Business-line Director, Mike Cutts said “Pod Point has been supplying reliable EV charging since 2009. This vast experience made it an obvious choice for our preferred supplier. Customers will benefit from this and the one-stop-shop solution Pod Point offers – making EV adoption even easier.”
Commenting on the partnership, Erik Fairbairn, Pod Point Founder and CEO, said: “Electrifying the light commercial vehicle fleet is a powerful way to stop travel damaging the earth and the new eDaily will encourage both SMEs and large fleets to go electric. We’re excited to be working with Iveco as their preferred chargepoint supplier.”
