Maxus is now accepting orders for the eDeliver 7, its new medium-size electric van that's set to rival the Citroen e-Dispatch and Vauxhall Vivaro-e.

The vehicle is available with a 77kWh or 88kWh battery, with the latter providing a range (WLTP) of up to 230 miles.

The eDeliver 7 will bridge the gap between Maxus' current eLCV offerings, the smaller eDeliver 3 and big brother, the eDeliver 9.

It can be specified in three size configurations, with a payload of up to 1200Kg.

The smallest version (L1H1) offers 5.9 cubic metres of load space and the largest payload. A longer wheelbase (L2H1) provides 6.7 cubic meters of space and up to 1,135Kg. The largest model (L2H2) has a higher roof and 8.7 cubic metres of space and 1,025Kg.

A single electric motor powers the front wheels, delivering 204PS and 330Nm.

Maxus says the eDeliver 7 has a 43 minutes charge time for 80% battery charge when using a rapid charger.
