ALL-ELECTRIC & HYBRID VANS BY BIG V
Fancy an all-electric or hybrid van conversion? We have repaired and modified electric vehicles for years, including Tesla's, Nissan's, and others.
We have conversions for all of the standard vans that are now coming out in electric and hybrid formats and have already converted some.
-
Nissan eNV200 - this is the first proper all-electric van with a decent range which was ready for conversion. We can squeeze a lot into this car-derived format, including a 2-seater bed seat, a full side kitchen, a lithium battery system with induction hobs (so there are no fossil fuels on the van!), and a pop top roof.
-
Volkswagen e-Transporter is coming soon and ready to be converted
-
Mercedes Vito is newly available now and great for converting
-
Vauxhall Vivaro is also out now and is a wider, squarer van
-
..and most manufacturers have vans coming soon!
Check out the other pages under "KAMPER STUFF" above for details on all of the major components of a conversion.

Some example projects
DAY VAN
Volkswagen T6 Shuttles with the original 2nd-row seating are popular daily drivers, to which we often add:
-
HiLo or Skyline Roof
-
High output LED lighting, including colour changing light wash
-
Slatted bed design
-
Embossed VW logo on the sliding hatch
-
Full ply and carpet lining
-
Custom hanging bag system for clothes storage
-
Leisure electrics with preparation for a rear kitchen
-
...and lots of little touches!
RACE VAN
The Ford MS-RT is a great base van but the load area leaves a lot to be desired. We regularly convert the back to look and feel as nice as the cab, and we add a HiLo Sport roof so you can keep your motorbikes, bicycles, or other gear below and sleep above.
Popular options include:
-
HiLo Sport roof with insulation and a thermal wrap for all-weather use.
-
Ply & carpet or vinyl lining
-
Custom LED lighting
-
Leisure battery(s)
-
Inverters, solar, and more!
CAMPER VAN

-
Pop top roof with bed
-
Lift-out pod, rear pull out, or full side kitchen
-
Comfortable bed seat
-
Leisure electrics
-
LED lighting
-
USB and 12v sockets
-
Mains hook-up
-
Solar charging
-
Roof racks, tow bar

...and much more!
