Oxford 43TX5003 1/43 Lev C Royal Mail TX5 Taxi Protype VN5 Van

 

The London EV Company is based in Coventry where it specialises in the development of vehicles capable of true zero emissions to comply with the strictest clean air zone regulations particularly pertinent in London now. The LEVC boasts that their VN5 van variant offers the benefits of an electric commercial vehicle with none of the downsides. It has an initial range of 309 miles with an on-board range extender to remove range anxiety completely.  The VN 5 Van has three intuitive drive modes to enhance operational efficiency each with its own performance benefits for all day long flexible operating.  With up to 5.5 cubic metres of load space, it is an ideal vehicle for corporations like Royal Mail who used a prototype taxi initially.

 

Our third 1:43 scale release replicates the  signature Royal Mail red livery which is enhanced with a bright green masked upper rear panel above a red and yellow chevron scheme.  White graphics depict its zero emission electric vehicle status with its social media search details #VN5#TheElectricVan. These graphics also appear on the side doors whilst the winged logo of LEVC is printed on the front wings above the wheel arch.  The interior is black, including the seats, with grey dashboard front and interior door panels. The van is registered LM20 WFD from the first half of 2020.
