Why electric vans are gaining popularity

From the newsletter
The Fiat E-Ulysse, an electric minivan designed for passenger transport or commercial use, has been introduced in Egypt for the first time. The van was launched by Dynamics Auto, Fiat’s distributor in the North African country, and is priced at EGP 2.79 million ($58,600). With three rows of seats, the van carries eight passengers and has spacious storage.
Electric minivans like the Fiat E-Ulysse are becoming popular, and hope to mirror the success of popular fuel minivans like the Toyota Noah and Voxy. They can be used to carry both passengers and goods, attractive for large families.
Most of the electric minivan and van adoption is concentrated in South Africa, where they are mostly fleet- or business-oriented vehicles for cargo, delivery or taxi. Outside of South Africa, electric-van penetration remains very limited.
