Stellantis has unveiled a comprehensive lineup of updated electric commercial vans equipped with advanced features ensuring safety and meeting the needs of business professionals and specialists. The range includes 12 vehicles under the Citroën, Peugeot, Opel, and Vauxhall commercial brands as part of Stellantis' "Pro One" strategy focused on commercial vehicle innovation.
The company leveraged cutting-edge electric propulsion technologies, advanced safety systems, modern driver assistance features, and full connectivity functions to deliver a comfortable driving experience and a reliable business partner for commercial owners.
Javier Peugeot, Vice President of Stellantis' Commercial Vehicles division, stated: "The second generation of zero-emission vans, designed to meet customer demands, enhances electric and fuel cell vehicle autonomy, featuring 18 advanced driver assistance and connectivity systems. Innovative capabilities such as electric-only launch will strengthen our leadership in manufacturing electric vans across all segments."
Stellantis is a leader in achieving zero emissions for commercial vehicles in Europe, offering both battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell options. The updated commercial vans feature the second-generation zero-emission technology, including enhanced internal batteries that maintain vehicle performance while extending driving range.
The new compact second-generation electric van models offer extended ranges up to 330 kilometers (205 miles) without recharging. Medium-sized electric vans come with batteries of 50 or 75 kWh capacity, enabling travel up to 350 km (224 miles) between charges. In the large van segment, a 110 kWh battery delivers the longest range in its class—up to 420 km (261 miles)—without charging. Large vans can charge from 0% to 80% in under an hour thanks to 150 kW fast-charging technology.
These improvements reinforce Stellantis' position as a pioneer in zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell powertrains. The second-generation hydrogen fuel cell system for medium-sized vans, launching mid-2024, uses Stellantis’ exclusive medium-power energy architecture, delivering a standard range of 400 km (249 miles) without refueling. Large vans equipped with hydrogen fuel cell technology will be available in 2024, using the same medium-power design to achieve a range of 500 km (311 miles), with full battery recharge completed in just five minutes.
The e-Power Take Off system provides 400-volt electrical power for commercial vehicles without compromising cargo capacity, drawing energy directly from the integrated traction battery rather than relying on an external source.
Commercial vehicles under the Ram brand in North America will be upgraded through electric vans and trucks, including the all-electric Ram ProMaster by year-end and the Ram 1500 REV by late 2024. Future technologies include hydrogen fuel cells, with further details to be announced later.
