Why choose a van? Some opt for a van because they need one for their business, while others upgrade to a bigger vehicle to accommodate their growing family. And some people just love the van life! Here are five of the best vans in our opinion and who they’re best suited to.
Panel Vans
Possibly the most popular type of van, the panel van is a great choice for tradespeople with lots of equipment to drive from site to site or for people like delivery drivers, due to their secure cargo areas. These come in varying sizes from the Ford Transit to the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter.
Small Vans
Small vans like the Citroen Berlingo are great for smaller-scale businesses. Couriers, sole traders, florists… these vans can still hold a decent load in the cargo area, but they are more comfortable and economical due to their size. Plus, they tend to fit in a garage or on a driveway.
Luton Vans
Luton vans are traditionally used by removal companies, as they are the tallest by far of all the van types and can fit in almost all large furniture items. With their large box-shaped rears, they are often considered small lorries.
Crew Vans
Crew vans are a bit like a mix of a panel van and car, leaving you just enough space in the cargo area to transport medium-sized items but with more seating in the rear, making them great for multiple occupants. Taxi drivers, for instance, might opt for this type of van for airport runs given that there is plenty of seating plus space for luggage.
Camper Vans
Camper vans need no introduction – they do exactly what they say on the tin! What better way to travel the country than in your very own home on wheels?
