DragonSea, an international shipping company with depots in London and Edinburgh, has taken delivery of 37 Farizon SV large vans as it continues its fleet transition to electric vehicles.

The deal for the L1H1 83kWh vans was facilitated by Driveway Vehicle Solutions, which has arranged for the vans to be leased to DragonSea for two years. The vans will be supplied by Pentagon Farizon Derby.

DragonSea specialises in transportation of domestic possessions of people relocating from China to the UK.

The Farizon SV L1H1 83 kWh offers 6.95m3 of load space, a maximum payload of 1,265kg, and a low loading height of 550mm. Combined with a range of up to 234 miles (WLTP Combined), the van’s attributes are ideally suited for moving household belongings and furniture as part of DragonSea’s door-to-door removals service.

Ben Lowe, business development manager at Driveway Vehicle Solutions, said: “DragonSea presented a particularly interesting challenge. The business needed an electric van capable of carrying large, heavy household goods while offering the range and reliability to support its specialist removals service. After assessing the available options, it became clear that the Farizon SV was the right fit, combining impressive payload capacity, generous load space and the range needed to support the business’s daily operations.”

Zoe Tonks, head of sales at Farizon Auto UK, commented: “This deal with DragonSea demonstrates another real-world application of the Farizon SV’s defining characteristics. With one of the largest load capacities for a van of its size, up to 234 miles of range, and all the very latest driver convenience and comfort functions, the SV is ideal for this customer’s needs.”
