The MODEC electric delivery van

While the simple van may not be the most glamorous of vehicles, it’s hard to argue against a practical electric version that could do the same tasks, but without burning fossil fuels. That’s exactly what the MODEC does, an electric van with a 100 mile range that can shift up to 2 tons of goods from supermarket to customer’s doors. UK supermarket company Tesco recently arranged a contract to upgrade its home delivery fleet to the MODEC, which has a top speed of 50 MPH with its 102 horse power electric motor. It ain’t no Tesla, but it’s sure got style.
