Final mile electric light van centre stage of the CV show 2016

Commercial Vehicle show, 3 halls of the NEC, stands sold out for 15th birthday. The CV show has become the go-to place for van, whilst Scania trucks stood tall this was van land in a sector taking a new focus on the exploding home delivery, e-retail final mile.

Double diary clash with the EDX 2016 e-retail show in Hall 9, this was a date not to be missed as IoC fellows met to talk final mile, next generation workforce and consolidation solutions to final mile.

SMMT figures reported an 18% increase in light van sales for 2015. IoC fellows had vehicles in the halls. Sam Clarke Gnewt was in the spotlight, centre stage of the Renault stand, showcasing the very latest electric light van. LDV launched a 250 mile range electric mid-size van. APC took centre stage of the LDV stand with a full livery panel van  adorned with the smartest APC number plate in the show.

New RHA boss Richard Burnett commented,

The increase in online sales has resulted in an increase in van sales, this is clearly reflected in the number of van manufacturers at this year's CV show.
