Peugeot e-Expert van offers up to 356 km WLTP range with 75 kWh battery and 11 kW three phase onboard charger

By Eve

In a sponsored feature (commercial collaboration with Peugeot) tied to the October 2026 price list update, the 136 hp (100 kW) e-Expert is offered with a 49 kWh battery for 226 km or a 75 kWh battery for 356 km WLTP, at 23.2 to 24.7 kWh per 100 km. It has an 11 kW three phase bidirectional onboard charger with V2L readiness, and up to 31 minutes to recover 80% of charge. It comes in M (4.98 m) and XL (5.33 m) lengths with roughly 1,000 kg payload, and includes the e-ROUTES app for 10 years via Connect ONE to plan charging stops.

Why it matters

A mid-size van with a 75 kWh pack and a three phase 11 kW onboard charger points to depot and overnight charging as the main use case for tradespeople and fleets, so site specifications should assume AC provision at that level. Bidirectional capability with V2L readiness and built-in charge stop planning are also worth noting when scoping fleet charging contracts.

Volvo opens UK orders for XC90 T8 Long Range PHEV at £75,765

Volvo has opened UK orders for the XC90 T8 Long Range Plug-in Hybrid at £75,765, positioned above the £66,270 B5 Mild Hybrid. It offers 101 miles of electric range, more than double the previous T8 PHEV, from a 41kWh battery paired with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 461PS. Total range is 1,096 miles, the official rating is 941.6mpg, and 0 to 62mph takes 5.2 seconds.

Why it matters

A 41kWh battery and 101 miles of electric range could shift more PHEV driver journeys onto electric running, which matters for workplace and home charging demand and for fleet charging policy. Buyers and CPOs weighing PHEV uptake in premium fleets should note the larger battery when planning charger provision.

Mercedes-Benz adds 310 kW all-wheel-drive VLE 400 4MATIC to its electric luxury van range

Mercedes-Benz is expanding the configuration options for its all-electric VLE Grand Limousine, with a new VLE 400 4MATIC, extra equipment packages and more affordable entry-level versions. The dual-motor 4MATIC produces a combined 310 kW, uses a battery with 115 kWh of usable capacity and offers a WLTP range of up to 654 km (406 miles). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.5 seconds, and the van can be configured with up to eight seats.

Why it matters

A large premium electric van with a 115 kWh battery and over 650 km of WLTP range adds to the pool of high-capacity vehicles that chauffeur, shuttle and family users will bring to charging sites. Operators planning hubs and fleet depots should consider how bigger batteries and multi-seat vehicles shape bay size, dwell time and power needs.

Piyush Goyal meets Škoda Auto Volkswagen India chief to discuss auto exports and EV manufacturing

India's Union Minister of Commerce and Industry, Piyush Goyal, met a delegation led by Piyush Arora, managing director and chief executive officer of Škoda Auto Volkswagen India Private Limited. In a post on X, Goyal said talks covered expanding automobile exports, strengthening India's position as a global automotive manufacturing hub and advancing electric vehicle manufacturing, as well as deepening localisation and integration into global automotive value chains. The company's India 2.0 strategy, built around the MQB-A0-IN platform, produced models including the Škoda Slavia, Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun, and the group is looking to use its Indian manufacturing base to serve neighbouring and overseas markets.

Why it matters

A stated government and OEM focus on EV production and localisation points to a growing domestic EV supply, which would feed future demand for charging infrastructure in India. No specific EV models, volumes or timelines were announced, so CPOs and procurement teams should treat this as a directional signal rather than a firm pipeline.
