@66hayles The team are on it and will come back to you asap. Sorry about this Hayley.

@LewisStanding1 Yup, happy Be.EV birthday! 🎂

@ctrlaltrefuel All the best things start up north 😉

@eV_Newt @BeEV_Charging Love to see the new green wraps too. Looking smart! 💚

[James @_james_gee_]

@eV_Newt @BeEV_Charging Love to see it! Super glad to bring great things like this to the Mer network as it comes across! 💚

@graeme_cobb @eV_Newt @TheZiesel The (huge) under-floor storage and frunk more than make up for it.

I’ve found it an awesome road tripper for any travel with as much stuff as I need – AND doggo who loves the roof 😅

@graeme_cobb @eV_Newt @TheZiesel I thought it would be more annoying to me than it has been.

IRL it’s been a pretty good van, but more than one times the tailgate has been headbutted 🙃

@electricfelix Don’t get me started on the KWh / kWh

[James @_james_gee_]

Great to see more affordable options!

However, from the fleets we speak to often, the barrier isn’t purchase price – it’s daily downtime.

If there were any class of vehicle crying out for 400 mile range and 400kW charging, it’s not suburb-crawling SUVs, it’s hard-working commercial vehicles that rely on being back on the road – doing jobs and making money.

It feels like this might be the right answer to the wrong question Ford. Hopefully there’s a next gen transit in the works too…

@mozzaev @BeEV_Charging Repeated cable theft and vandalism so we’ve powered up 4 bays of the 8 to see how things go first…

It’s a very expensive day when all bays get hit, so we’re taking it in stages ⚡️

[James @_james_gee_]

@eV_Newt @alexlowe30 Now now 😅

[James @_james_gee_]

Silly? Yes
Do I want one? Also yes 🏎️

[James @_james_gee_]

@mozzaev The only other one i’ve seen in the wild was in Copenhagen. It looked the business 😎

[James @_james_gee_]

@STittayz @eV_Newt @modernheroestv @BeEV_Charging Well, CHAdeMO doesn’t communicate MAC address anyway so we wouldn’t be able identify the model as normal anyway. I meant more anecdotally 😅

[James @_james_gee_]

@eV_Newt @modernheroestv @BeEV_Charging Funnily enough I’ve never seen single one charge on our network. Happy to try though, i presume kempower will ⚡️

[James @_james_gee_]

@eV_Newt @TheEvEngineer @BeEV_Charging 25% of the network now done, picking up serious pace. It’s not really done by region but i’ll check!

[James @_james_gee_]

@tc_thrane Thanks! Weather has been incredible, and the transport space extremely eye opening 🔋☀️

[James @_james_gee_]

A week in Norway and Denmark has reminded me that no matter all the policy noise and press negativity – the electric transition picks up *fast*.

There’s a really bright (near) future for EVs in the UK 🇳🇴🇩🇰⚡️

@Makro_no Government policies used to incentivise the right behaviour. Crazy, right?!
