I would like to see one as a campervan.

[@paulsmyers203]

With 150kw+ CCS charging ... certainly not their biggest market, but I bet they'd sell thousands.

[@UKZUK]

@@paulsmyers203 100%. I also think if they do truly match diesel van prices you'll see self build campervans of these taking off too.

[@macwilko]

maybe when they are available, it could be converted as a camper van. Nice thing about this option is you could have fully electric appliances, like for cooking, hot water.

[@stevemann6110]

Definitely would be a great camper conversion, especially if it integrates V2G/V2H tech, as the camper could act as your house battery when not in use and when away could act like a mobile power station and allow (like people have mentioned) fully electric appliances onboard. Exciting times!!

[@bushmaster4481]

Would be so good

[@GranVlog]

As a delivery driver myself, here me out on a few things. * Make sure that buttons, knobs, touchscreens etc works well with different types of gloves. Usually using electrical gloves. It should be tested with new and worn gloves, because as they wear down, you are only left with fibre. * Doors should have a camera sensor for opening. this should be placed at knee height, and easily activated with the legs. we often carry things while trying to open the car, and putting that down on the ground isnt ideal when wet outside. * Make sure the steering wheel is as light as possible to operate, and many different positions that it can be locked in. * The screen should display the rear view camera anytime the van is stopped, then fade out after some speed is gained. Really helps when you get to traffic stops, or start riding. often people on scooters that wizz by. * For more details, PAY UP!

This is well designed with everything in mind from the driver to end of life recycling. Hope to see this coming to the US soon.

[@Alx_Mk2]

I read that they are but can't remember where. They have the ability to setup what they call a 'micro-factory'. Can work within existing structures so only takes a matter of months, perhaps weeks. Only perceived issues are material logistics and sourcing batteries.

[@jeremymanson1781]

At present Arrival are headquartered in Charlotte North Carolina.

[@slicktype001]

Would be great to have a version for contractors such as carpenters, plumbers etc.. Love the idea of getting something like this for our company to get rid of our gas-guzzling work van/trucks

[@Kavster92]

No real features compared to Cannoo trucks. I imagine workmen will be better off with a real truck than this thing.

[@mowcius]

@@Kavster92 The real features are it being a compact vehicle, wholly enclosed, and nice to drive - features here in the UK that make the SWB Transit Custom and the Vauxhall Vivaro the most popular trade vehicles. Also there's no confirmation that the Canoo will ever be available in the UK, whereas the Arrival vans are made here.

[@antonsjoberg]

@@mowcius this feels so brittle. Image what this car would look like in 3 years. All these automated and sliding doors. No service networks. Screens a mile away from the driver.

[@Kavster92]

[@Nevakonaza.]

Amazing, I love the modular design of the components making it easier to replace (or upgrade)..the bus is so good looking too, Very clean!

[@heshwar6243]

[@chefomarshah]

Would love one for my Icecream business

[@backacheache]

Good call, idling dirty-diesels' near kids has never been a great idea

[@computerfan1079]

Never thought about that but it makes sense: lot's of short segments in a relatively short distance without the need to keep the engine running

[@melanieenmats]

For you this would be an almost perfect use case for an electric van. Plus the music eliminates the danger of driving a quiet vehicle. Driving an electric scooter for a few years, this was my biggest surprise: I have to concentrate 100% on people not having noticed me because they will not hear me until I'm past them.

[@michaltheb]

you need to bring this to the public too! there must be demand for people like self-employed trade, campers, people carriers, etc. Hope you get there soon!

[@rogerstarkey5390]

Here's an idea. Let's say IKEA dies a deal. Arrival builds a few microfactories at IKEA distribution warehouses. You go to an IKEA store, pick features you want, choose an interior model (by IKEA). 2 weeks later, your van arrives at that store, either fully fitted and built, or with the flat pack interior of your choice ready for you to install?

[@Lemon_Drums_USA]

@@rogerstarkey5390 brilliant

Amazing door opening ! UPS will love this...future is here

[@davidbryan6484]

Be awesome to buy one of these secondhand in 5/10 years and convert it into a campervan

[@xxwookey]

I'm happy to buy one new and convert it if the range is adequate. In 10 years time batteries may have changed enough that I'll fork out for another expensive one and you (or someone) can have this one for a much more reasonable amount of money.

[@melanieenmats]

It won't be like gasoline vehicles though. You'd probably have to buy a new battery which makes it entirely different from buying a used van. Battery lifetime is way shorter than engine lifespan.

[@AWildBard]

@@melanieenmats The opposite is true. Battery lifetimes are about double the life of ICE vehicles. It's one of the main reasons battery electric vehicles are cost effective right now. Because even though the cost is higher, they last longer and have significantly less maintenance as well. So the overall cost of ownership over the life of the vehicle is lower. Once the price of batteries goes low enough, there will be fewer and fewer applications for ICE vehicles.

[@navithefairy]

14m3 cargo space is really good for a vehicle that size! Same class Mercedes Sprinter has around 11m3.

[@maxnewts]

I cannot wait to see what people do to make this a minibus or something as that door configuration at the front passenger side is immensely convenient from the looks of things. I’m impressed!

[@aaronregehr]

Crash testing yet? Will you share crash test videos when you reach that stage?

[@WAITWHUT-wl2uj]

If they reduce the horsepower of the vehicle, crash test will be utterly legoland

[@oingpla]

What a really well explained presentation.

[@Bussellification]

I have a small fleet of vans that deliver fresh food to restaurants. Only upgrade I would like is the ability to kit it out with a refrigeration unit and still able to do 150-200 miles. Once that can be done I won't be buying diesel again

[@rogerhargreaves2272]

[@tigre3droyce771]

I am impressed about the ingenuity of the production process. Look forward to more of the recycling process. If this gain attention, popularity and momentum.. I hope the big automotive companies will follow suit. We need a closed circle product lifecycle. As for any product, to reduce waste and improve our environment. Therefore batteries should have a 2nd life as well when their capacity aren't effective anymore.

[@HawkwardAlaskan]

As an alarm tech, I'm super excited to see this hit mass market. I've actually told my boss to hold off on purchasing my new van (current one broke down) to see if this can be a feasible purchase. Prices pending.

[@polarexpress2316]

[@guringai]

I hope Arrival comes to Australia! Pleased to be an investor & these vids provide reassurance

[@The-Pug-Experience]

I'm curious what will happen if the van drives over a speed bump or anything similar that would hit the underside of the vehicle, would it damage the battery? Would the battery explode?

[@thebrowns5337]

Just a guess but there is probably a protection plate underneath as this will protect the batteries against damage (therefore reduce the risk of fire etc) as well help with the aerodynamics. If you look at most or diesel vans designed for fleet, certainly around 5 years old (not sure about brand new ones) they don't even have the plastic underpans we are acustomed to on modern cars - lift the bonnet and you see the floor through gaps around the engine. I imagine in your scenario, although hopefully not a speedbump but maybe a rock etc, an internal combustion powered vanwould alsk be at risk as something ljke the fuel pump, oil sump etc could get damaged. Again I think we are looking at worst case scenario and normal use these things can drive over speed bumps, kerbs etc without too much bother. Ground clearance this van doesn't looklower than say a merc sprinter and certainly not lower than a car. Don't see many Teslas exploding due to a speed bump!

[@rodc5092]

Range with 500kg and 1000kg load? Anyone? Expected price or delivery time?

[@papiedem]

[@benpaynter]

Looks awesome. It's such an exciting time in transportation at the moment. So much boundary pushing R&D from both the big players but increasingly startups like Arrival. The roads are going to look and sound very different in 10 years time. A big thing for fleets also will be V2G. Delivery vehicles will be able to make money whilst sat at the depot in the evening.

[@marcgoodman4561]

[@noahderrington5156]

[@talktorobi]

Good stuff, I'm sure there's a valid reason for this new design. I hope you haven't got rid of the original Van design. So more iconic.

[@MarkInArizona]

I like it! But no way would those headlights work in a place where it snows. (unless they have some kind of a heating element to melt the snow / ice that would pack within those small sugar scoops)

[@xxwookey]

The low floor is nice for city deliveries and efficiency, but not for some other uses: rural roads, dirt roads, camper vans. How easy will it be to raise the suspension or build a variant with a higher floor? How about an air setup that raises it when needed - that could be best of both worlds. Not sure if the rollerskate setup makes this sort of thing easier or not.

[@factfilenews]

Excellent design.. and R&D Very compelling qualities for a passenger vehicle..

[@jacoblundstrom7451]

Very nice vehicle! In Sweden where I live they pour a large amount of salt and gravel on the road during the vinter to prevent accidents, this leads to cracks in the windshield and some unlucky owners of vehicles have to change their windshield every year or more often. Have you thought about this and is it easy to change the windshield? The glass firms in Sweden are in a golden age, changing all of these windshields!

[@jefwesb]

Awesome black bus in the background

[@danielwhyatt3278]

It is a nicer designed van guys than what we have on the roads now, but this new EV van is sadly not as nice as the Alpha design, that we saw only a few months ago really. It’s a shame that they’ve gone soo far away soo easily from the look that drew a lot of people to ARRIVAL in the first place. I hope that they will consider releasing the first design as well in the end for the rest of the future aesthetic loving customer base. Do also hope that the bus design (which is in production) will remain the same as that had the same kinda look to the Alpha. That modularity look with the smooth simplified shapes really drew people in, and it would be very disappointing if they just went back to the ‘what we already know’ look.

[@DavidKnowles0]

The Alpha design is actually several years old, www.wired.co.uk/article/royal-mail-electric-truck-test-arrival

[@DavidKnowles0]

Most buses are the same as the Arrival design already.

[@UnknownUser.ar1]

@@DavidKnowles0 Yes I don’t see any distinction in Arrival bus design. Even their van design you can many similarities in hobbyist van designs.
