The results are in, and the winner is...the Renault Kangoo Z.E.! Here at Van Compare, one of the UK’s leading van insurance comparison sites, we’re always keen to find out more about the up-and-coming vehicles on the market. The news that the Renault Kangoo Z.E. has stolen the show this year is great for European manufacturing and for the future of electric vehicles.

The accolade of ‘Van of the Year’ is awarded to the vehicle which makes the most positive impact to the transportation of goods by road. This year the Ranault Kangoo Z.E. scooped the prize thanks to its affordability and incredible green credentials. Our van insurance comparison team have been wowed by the Kangoo, just as the Van of the Year judges must have been!

The key reason for the success of the Kangoo is that although it is an eco-friendly, electric van, it does not necessarily behave like one. Our van insurance comparison experts were excited to note that the Kangoo is comparable with diesel vans on:

• Price
• Capacity
• Acceleration
• Speed

Both our van insurance comparison team and the Van of the Year judges are excited by the possibility that the Kangoo could be the future for LCVs, worldwide. The van has been described as a ‘breakthrough’ and is one of the first electric vans to present truly accessible and feasible option for van drivers across Europe. As one of the UK’s leading van insurance comparison websites, keeping up-to-date with all the goings on in the world of vans is important to us here at Van Compare, and the success of the Kangoo Z.E. represents particularly exciting news.
