Today, Stellantis is the undisputed leader in zero-emission systems for commercial vehicles in Europe, offering both BEV and fuel cell electric (FCEV) options. The improved commercial vehicle lineup brings the second generation of zero-emission technology, including proprietary EV battery systems that provide greater range without compromising capacity.

The second generation of the BEV gives the new vans a better range of over 340 kilometers (211 miles). In the new mid-size BEVs, the batteries provide 50 or 75 kilowatts (kWh) of power and up to 350 kilometers (217 miles) of range. In most of the car, the 110 kWh battery provides an excellent range of up to 420 km (261 miles). In addition, fast charging with 150 kW power will take the supercar’s battery from 0 to 80% in less than an hour.
