What fits in the load area
| Euro pallets (1,200 x 800mm) | 4, in a single row |
|---|---|
| UK standard pallets (1,200 x 1,000mm) | 3, in a single row |
| 8 x 4 sheets (2,440 x 1,220mm) | Lie flat on the floor, between the wheel arches |
| Pipe, timber or ladders | Up to 3.7m on the floor |
Worked out from the verified floor length 3,705mm, 1,422mm between the wheel arches, 1,932mm high. At the full Euro pallet count, the payload allows about 340kg per pallet. Counts use the width between the wheel arches for the whole floor, so they never over-count. Door openings are not in our data: check the rear and side door apertures before relying on a count. Goods stacked on a pallet can stand up to about 1,782mm tall, allowing 150mm for the pallet itself.
Could you go electric?
How this van compares with Fiat Professional E-Ducato Panel Van L3H2 4.25T Electric 270hp Automatic MY26, the same body with the other powertrain, 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 184 miles, so an overnight charge covers the day.
- Payload. The electric version carries 105kg more (1,480kg against 1,375kg).
- Towing. Braked towing: 2,400kg electric, 2,500kg diesel.
- Energy. Charging at a small-business depot costs about 10.6p a mile against 24.7p for diesel: roughly £3,525 a year less at 25,000 miles.
- Price. The electric version lists for £10,690 more after the £5,000 zero emission van and truck grant, which the energy saving covers in about 3 years.
When the diesel is the more practical choice
- Towing more than 2,400kg.
How this is worked out
- Planning range is 70% of the official 263-mile WLTP figure, allowing for winter weather and a full load.
- Energy use 0.372 kWh a mile: the usable battery divided by the official range.
- Diesel 165.48p a litre excluding VAT (DESNZ, week of 2 November 2026); the Fiat Professional Ducato Panel Van L3H2 3.5T Diesel 140hp Manual MY26's official 30.4mpg.
- 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).
