The Best Small Vans For Your Business

It’s safe to say that the commercial van market has improved in leaps and bounds over the last few decades.  Gone are the days of rattling cabs and hillside breakdowns; with newer tech, upgraded safety features and a wealth of practical capability, it’s no wonder why a good van is the backbone of many businesses.

That said, if you’re looking to invest in your first van or upgrade an existing fleet, the abundance of choice can feel somewhat overwhelming. There are so many brilliant manufacturers to choose between, not to mention specs, tech and add-ons. When we say we could talk about vans forever, we’re not joking!

In this blog, however, we’ll be focussing on a handful of small but capable vans. Sure, larger vehicles are great for storage, but when it comes to city driving, busy roads and tight parking, nothing compares to the versatility of a small van.

Read on to discover 5 brilliant small vans!

Ford Transit Connect

In no particular order, we thought we’d start with the Ford Transit Courier. As one of the smallest vans on the road, this nifty vehicle benefits from a combination of car-like characteristics and drivability.

Powered by a 1.5-litre EcoBlue engine with 120ps, this small but mighty van is not only fast but incredibly efficient.

Renault Kangoo

Next on our list is the Renault Kangoo. Having earned a reputation for value within the small van market, this capable vehicle is a favourite among small van drivers across the globe. Boasting a comfortable interior and surprisingly large load area, this is an ideal choice for tradespeople across industries.

Volkswagen Caddy

Of course, no discussion of small vans would be complete without mentioning the Volkswagen Caddy. Fans of the newest Volkswagen Golf are sure to love the Caddy owing to the number of shared features and design specifications. Combining the control and comfort of a top-class hatchback with the practical storage of a van, the Caddy is a pleasure to drive.

Peugeot Partner

This brings us to the Peugeot Partner, a comfortable vehicle with plenty of tech features to keep you safe and informed while on the road. With a choice of engine outputs and some serious diesel-based efficiency, this van makes a brilliant business or personal vehicle.

Vauxhall Combo

Last but not least, it would be foolish to forget the Vauxhall Combo. With a range of options regarding engine power and technical specifications, the Combo range epitomises versatility. Those looking for a little extra torque and some seriously sporty handling will certainly be impressed by the Vauxhall Combo Sportive model, with a 1.5-litre turbo diesel engine!

"First class service, I must mention Adrian & Ash on an excellent deal & swift turn around under the short notice I had to buying a new van. Slight delay in the delivery of the van from manufacturers end but Adrian agreed to cover the cost of a hire van until my new van was delivered which allowed me to continue working. its the first time i've purchased a van without physically entering a dealership and i wouldn't hesitate to do it again."
