This fully electric camper van was built by MTC from Bingen am Rhein. This electric camper uses the Ford Transit platform.

I live in a motorhome full time and travel around Europe in it. I spend most of my time in Poland, Germany and Italy. Vanlife is my life.
In my RU-vid channel, I present reviews of recreational vehicles. Here you will find campervans and motorhomes from the cheapest camper vans to the most expensive luxury liners, from various companies including Hobby, Hymer, Carthago, Westfalia, Wingamm, La Strada, Frankia, Wavecamper, Maurer, Dreamer, Itineo, Rapido, Clever Vans, Pössl, Bürstner, Niesmann Bischoff, Action Mobil, Reisemobil Manufaktur, Robeta, Trigano, Challenger, EuraMobil, Karmann Mobil, Laika, Forster, Mobilvetta Design, Affinity, Globe Traveller, Benimar, Roller Team, Adria, Bocklet, Woelcke,Tourne, Megamobil, VW, Mercedes, CS, Renault, Ford, Fiat, Carado, Sunlight, Baileys, Chausson, Balcamp, Knaus, Weinsberg, Murvi, Bliss, Mitsubishi, Woelcke, Reisemobile Bürow, Holzmobil, Giotti Line, Florium, Fleurette, Ahorn, Westfalia, Space Camper, Orange Work, Concorde, Womondo, Protec, Auto Sleeper, Dethleffs, Ilusion, Gehocab, Malibu, Pilote, Wild Ax, Vantage, Bresler, Tom's Fahrzeugtechnik, Morelo, Swift, Carado and others.
I do this by regularly attending trade events such as CMT Stuttgart, Abenteuer und Allrad, Caravan Salon Dusseldorf, Warsaw Caravan and Camping Show and sometimes others.
I cover equipment, including 12v electrical equipment and talk a lot about lithium batteries.
I also show some of the places I have visited in Europe in my own motorhome, as well as the places you can stay at! I try to give as much coverage as I can to official campsites and free places which I use for overnighting. Therefore you can find here the aire or stellplatz that you are possibly looking for.

Alan, You forgot to answer the two most important questions about an electric Motorhome 1. What’s the range on a fully charged battery. 2. What’s the payload? Usually the weight of the battery wipes out the payload. Remember that probably most of the people who would buy an electric Motorhome will be younger buyers who are limited to an MTOLM of 3500 kg. You also forgot to criticise the small sink and shower drains, or is that only a problem when they are fitted to a Knaus or Weinsberg🤣🤣

I wanted this to be an introduction Jeremy as I planned on taking it out for a test drive but that did not work out due to my time constraints. The range is said to be 300km but I doubt it in this case. I don't know what the payload is However I would point out that whereas the batteries are heavy, so is fuel and an electric motor is lighter than a diesel motor. So the difference is not as bad as is often made out to be. I need to do a video on weight. Small plugs are always a problem, irrespective of the manufacturer.

I work for a company that builds buses. Both electric and diesel. An electric powered engine is heavier than a diesel engine. The electric buses are just for the cities where the charging hubs ( in the bus depot are near ) when you see coaches taking people on distant holidays then you know the range issues have been sorted. Believe me that's quite some years.

I don't agree with pure electric for living. I've done a study and it doesn't make sense. My 3 way fridge uses 3 times the power of a compressor fridge. My 5kWh battery goes to 50% during the night and I recharge from external solar cells in the day time. However, my 2 x 15 kg gas bottles could run the fridge for 2 to 3 months. That's why there's no comparison.
@VanlifewithAlan
@VanlifewithAlan 9 месяцев назад
I also don't think it is possible but there is something you might have overlooked with the fridge. A 3 way fridge uses much more electric power than a dedicated compressor fridge - but the latter makes much more noise.

Is that the only new electric campervan in the Salon this year? I'm a bit disappointed by the lack of offerings especially the ones taking advantage of electric propulsion. This is just an off the shelf transit electric with a normal conversion .

I like the finish and I like the layout which I almost never say about drop down beds. Pity we couldn’t see it with the bed down (although I’m not likely to be a customer so it’s a bit academic).

We love your videos Alan. We’re hoping to buy a motorhome, either A or B class in 3 years time. Do you think or know if more electric models will be available then? We love the Carthago C line, any ideas if they might produce motor homes on an electric base?
@VanlifewithAlan
@VanlifewithAlan 9 месяцев назад
I like to tell viewers good things but in this case I can't. There is no chance that the Carthago C Line will be electric and the chances of anything else are small indeed. There will be increasingly more vehicles like this one but this is really a one off, I doubt they built more than one. Hymer have said that they will build motorhomes once a range of 500km is reached, however they do have the Burstner E-van on the Ford Transit. As much as it pains me to write this, I think the logical choice for you would be diesel, have a look at some classic motorhomes from Carthago from the first decade of this century!

Nice van and a good quality interior, but 300klms for 120K is crazy.. Campervan/motorhomes are built for distance travelling and it will be many years(i woukd say a decade at least before range is suitable. Never mind the Charger anxiety which i have seen in the uk whilst out and about. Sorry, but DieselEcoHybrid is the future. Electy to start and in city built up areas & EcoDiesel for Long journey/fast fill up…weight and temperatures will vastly reduce Electric range too!!!!

@@VanlifewithAlan that's different though you're purposefully stopping check out the sights make camp do whatever. Most giant electric vehicles like that only get 200 or so miles per charge and then you're going to have to sit there and wait to fully charge that thing up probably about another two or so hours being bored to death. You can't turn anything on in the RV while it's being charged cuz you'll drain the battery.... I just feel like it would be a disaster
