PEACE OF MIND
To ensure a hassle-free ownership experience with no unforeseen repair costs, all non-wearing components – from motors to ball joints to bushes – are covered against manufacturing defects by our fully comprehensive mechanical warranty.
VN5 offers the longest standard warranty in terms of vehicle and battery in the industry.
For those looking for that extra reassurance, the whole vehicle warranty can be extended for a small additional cost.

MAXIMUM ELIGIBILITY FOR PLUG-IN VAN GRANT
The Department for Transport (DfT) announced changes to the Plug-in Grant schemes for light commercial vehicles and trucks, which came into effect 18th March 2021.
Unlike competitors vehicles which have been adversely affected by this change, VN5 remains eligible for the maximum Plug-In Van Grant – worth £6,000.
LOWER OPERATING COSTS
Reduce business expenditure daily with the fuel savings you expect from an electric vehicle, and drive in any urban zero-emissions zone without incurring emission penalties.
Enjoy the long-term benefits of the vehicle’s robustness and durability, which leads to a longer lifespan, better residuals and minimal repair costs.
The numbers add up: VN5 can deliver a significantly lower total cost of ownership.
SAVE ON FUEL
Diesel fuel costs per mile are potentially four times those of electric charging costs.
The cost of electricity varies widely between electricity provider, charging location and device, supplier tariffs and also fluctuates over time.
At the time of publication* Octopus Go’s overnight tariff for electric vehicles cost only 5p/kWh, which equates to a cost of less than 2p/mile for a VN5 running purely on electricity supplied by this tariff and a total charge cost of less than £2.

SAVE ON COMPONENT WEAR
To further optimise the use of electrical energy, regenerative braking has been adopted, converting unwanted momentum into energy to charge the battery as the vehicle slows.
So effective in its operation, the initial braking effort is provided entirely by the regeneration system, with the mechanical wheel brakes only engaging during heavier braking periods. This both improves the range and reduces wear on brake pads, extending their lifespan.
SAVE ON ROUTINE MAINTENANCE
With its exemplary durability, longevity and corrosion resistance, the VN5 can reduce any business’s vehicle repair bill. Additionally, the electric powertrain has fewer moving parts than a conventional engine and reduced component wear compared to a conventional van.
As a result, the VN5 benefits from service intervals of 25,000 miles – meaning less expenditure on maintenance, and more time in active service.
ZERO EMISSION CHARGES
When operating in Pure EV mode (electric only), emissions in the city are zero, meaning VN5 benefits from exemption from emissions penalties.
Geofencing capabilities also give the driver one less thing to worry about, as the vehicle can automatically switch to zero-emissions operation upon entering a Clean Air Zone, meaning no emissions charges.
HELP IF YOU NEED IT
For even greater peace of mind, LEVC have partnered with the RAC to give VN5 drivers access to 1,500 patrols, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. So wherever you are in the UK, if you need help, it’s never far away.
VN5 is covered by RAC Roadside Assistance for 12 months from the date of purchase and includes:
- Standard assistance in the UK
- Home start
- Flat tyres
- Recovery to the nearest LEVC dealer.
