You will find increasing numbers of new and used battery electric trucks and vans for sale on these pages. As the deadline for finishing the sale of fossil fuel (diesel & petrol) commercial vehicles approaches, increasing numbers of new electric truck and van deals are becoming available and are listed on these pages. The early leader in electric truck sales is Volvo, although DAF, with their dominant market position in the UK is likely to take the lion’s share of the new electric truck market here. Early used examples of the DAF LF started to make their way onto these pages in early 2024 with ex-demonstrators and trial trucks made available.

That’s why leading European truck and bus CEOs have escalated their call to Europe’s policy makers with a Manifesto for getting zero-emission trucks and buses on Europe’s roads, launched ahead of European…
