THRIVE verdict
Fast-charging large electric van, but payload, volume and towing all trail the class median.
The Farizon SV L1 H2 is a large electric panel van with a list price of £48,000, which sits above the median for large vans, though it qualifies for the zero emission van grant. Its payload of 1,230kg is below the median of 1,260kg for the class, and its load volume of 7.92m³ falls in the lowest quarter of large vans, so buyers moving bulky or heavy loads should check it against their actual cargo needs.
Range is 234 miles WLTP, just below the class median of 235 miles, but DC charging peaks at 140kW, above the median of 130kW, giving a 20-80% charge in 36 minutes. That combination suits operations built around multiple short charging stops rather than one long range, and the 8-year/120,000-mile battery warranty backs up longer-term ownership.
Against the Ford Transit DCiV Trend 350L LWB diesel, the Farizon is cheaper at £48,000 versus £53,685, but the Transit carries more payload at 1,239kg, more volume at 7.59m³... actually the Transit has less volume, and the Transit tows more at 2,600kg versus the Farizon's 2,000kg, which is itself in the lowest quarter for the class.
Best for
- Multi-drop operations needing rapid DC top-ups
- Fleets wanting zero emission grant eligibility
- Buyers prioritising long battery warranty cover
Think twice
- Payload below the class median
- Load volume in the lowest quarter for large vans
- Towing capacity in the lowest quarter, and price above median

Electric or diesel?
How the Farizon SV L1 H2 compares with Ford Transit DCiV Trend 350L LWB / L3 H2 2.0L EcoBlue 130PS 6-speed manual FWD, the closest alternative across the electric line, for a typical working day.
Electric could work: check the points below
- Range. 100 miles a day sits comfortably inside a planning range of about 164 miles, so an overnight charge covers the day.
- Payload. Payload is about the same: 1,230kg electric, 1,239kg diesel.
- Towing. Braked towing: 2,000kg electric, 2,600kg diesel.
- Energy. Charging at a small-business depot costs about 10p a mile against 23.4p for diesel: roughly £3,350 a year less at 25,000 miles.
- Price. The electric version lists for no more than the diesel after the £5,000 zero emission van and truck grant.
When the diesel is the more practical choice
- Towing more than 2,000kg.
How this is worked out
- Planning range is 70% of the official 234-mile WLTP figure, allowing for winter weather and a full load.
- Energy use 0.35 kWh a mile: THRIVE's typical figure for an electric van (this van's usable battery is not verified).
- Diesel 165.48p a litre excluding VAT (DESNZ, week of 2 November 2026); the Ford Transit DCiV Trend 350L LWB / L3 H2 2.0L EcoBlue 130PS 6-speed manual FWD's official 32.1mpg.
- Electricity: 28.59p/kWh at a small-business depot (DESNZ, excluding VAT), 26.32p at home as the driver pays (Ofgem price cap), 65.83p on public rapid chargers (Zapmap, excluding VAT).
- 250 working days a year. List prices exclude VAT and options; running costs exclude servicing, insurance, tax and residual values.

Supports: overall length, overall height, official range, test cycle, gross vehicle weight, towing capacity (braked), ac charging (max), dc rapid charging (peak), rapid charge time. Farizon SV brochure (electric-only model; the brochure linked as 'Download brochure' for the SV on farizonauto.co.uk/our-range/sv-range, file dated Nov 2025 by its metadata, no printed date), page 10 'L1 H2 DIMENSIONS & WEIGHTS', DIMENSIONS table (one value spans the battery columns); agrees with the 'L4990 x H2180 mm' version card on the SV range page
- Farizon UK (Jameel Motors UK), retrieved 21 September 2026. Supports: list price (excluding vat), warranty. Site's product-detail page mislabels this card's load capacity as 9.39 m3 (duplicated from the L2 H2 card); the price figure itself is unaffected and matches the +£1,000 OTR-vs-base pattern seen across the range.
- GOV.UK (Zero emission vehicles eligible for a grant: Vans), retrieved 21 September 2026. Supports: zero emission van grant.
- Farizon UK, published 14 November 2025, retrieved 5 October 2026. Supports: payload. Farizon SV brochure (electric-only model), page 10 'L1 H2 DIMENSIONS & WEIGHTS', WEIGHTS table, single 83 kWh column (L1 H2 is offered only with 83 kWh). The same page's headline panel says 'MAX PAYLOAD 1,230 KG' and kerb 2,270 + payload 1,230 = the stated 3,500 kg GVW, so the page is self-consistent. Date is the PDF creation date (no printed date); this is still the brochure linked from farizonauto.co.uk/our-range/sv-range and /product-detail on 5 Oct 2026. Farizon's 21 Apr 2026 '2026 SV' press release says 'payload of up to 1,365 kg' (range-wide, vs the brochure's 1,350 kg max), so 2026-model payloads may have moved slightly; no newer per-version document exists.
- Farizon UK (Jameel Motors UK), retrieved 21 September 2026. Supports: load volume. Used in preference to the product-detail page and brochure infobox (both show 7.92 m3 correctly at the page-9/10 boundary); confirmed consistent across the range listing page.
