I reject reality and substitute my own !!!!!!
The van is a Mega van from Mega or Axiam (the same company basically) they make Quadricycles and are supposed to be making the NICE but it's yet to be seen on the roads the van is available in either electric or diesel and the UK office is based in Coventry

If you only saw two electric vehicles in Central London, you must have been walking around with your eyes closed!
Electric bikes, scooters, cars and vans are pretty much everywhere in London now: especially in Westminster and Camden.
There are well over 800 G-Wiz's on London's roads now and that figure will be over 1,000 by the end of the year. The Axiam Mega vans have been taken up by a few prominent businesses in London and the Lexola electric mopeds/scooters are starting to pop up all over the place!
Add to that the NICE and the Maranello 4, of which there are a few starting to appear, and suddenly London being the electric car capital of the world starts to ring true.

Hi guys
I'm new here today - yay!
The van is the MEGA, there is a company, 'Hiremech' on teh trading estate next to me who have the rights to sell them in London. They do look very smart. Retail at about £10,000
The company is mainly a forklift repair centre, and they have been very helpful in the supply of parts for my EV conversions (I have stripped 4 motors off their scrapped forklifts for my car, and various other bits)
If you would like a contact, just let me know and I'll get their details for you.
Best regards
Christopher
