Specialist commercial window contractor Solar Windows has taken delivery of 20 new Farizon SV large vans that will replace diesel-powered vehicles in its fleet.
The EVs will support the Caerphilly, South Wales-based company’s fitters as they transport windows, doors, and equipment to locations across the country.
Supplied by Waterton Motor Group, Farizon’s authorised dealership in Bridgend, the order is made up of 14 L1H1 vans, three L2H2 variants, and three L3H3 models.
Solar Windows will base the vans across its three sites in Caerphilly, Devon and Nottingham.
With bespoke racking being fitted to the largest L3H3 vans, and on-site charging already installed at the three locations, the Farizon SVs will be put straight to work.
The Farizon SV line-up is available with 67kWh, 83kWh or 106kWh battery options, offering a WLTP combined range between 177 miles and 247 miles, depending on the model.
Its all-electric powertrain produces 170kW (231PS) of power and 336Nm of torque.
Carl Lewis, Managing Director and Company Owner at Solar Windows, said, “Being sustainable is an extremely important part of our business.
“I wanted to grow our green credentials when bidding for tenders, and electric vans are a crucial way to do this.
“The Farizon SV meets all of our requirements. While payload is important for our operation, the look and feel of the products are great.
“I was really impressed when I first looked around the vans at the Installer Show, and following the loan of a demonstrator and a highly competitive deal, I knew I had found the right vans for our fleet.”
