Top features for your van interior to look out for

Whether you’re looking to expand your business’s fleet of vehicles, or just need a new model to increase efficiency, it can be a hard job to find a van that is perfect for you. Engine type, brand and a hundred other little factors can help to influence your decision, but one of the most important to look out for is the interior.

Here are some of the top features to look out for when you’re choosing a new van.

Storage Options

One of the most important features, if you’re a business on the go, is the storage options available in your van. First, you want a large payload, perfect for carrying any cargo or equipment you may need. This can vary from brand to brand, so make sure you have a good look around and compare the payload capacity. Also think about the loading options, as vans with a side door or wide doors are much preferred for individuals trying to load large or irregularly shaped cargo.

Next up is the storage in the cab. If you spend a lot of time in your van or even work out of it, you want plenty of storage space for contracts, your laptop or anything else you may need. Check if there’s any smart storage, such as fold-down seats with storage built-in, or space beneath the seats to put things.

Car Upholstery

One thing that might slip under the radar when choosing a new van is the upholstery. Some carmakers will give you a choice, but some will just be fitted with a standard option that you might be left with, even if it isn’t the most suitable. The main types normally found in cars are leather, vinyl and fabric. Leather is perfect for a premium feel, as well as being easy to maintain. But it can be expensive and difficult to repair.

Vinyl is cheaper than leather, but with modern versions, it can look just as good as leather. It is also simple to clean and environmentally friendly, often made from recycled plastics. But it does get very hot in the summer, as well as having a cheaper feel. Finally, fabric upholstery is comfortable in any weather and durable, but is also prone to stains and feels less premium than other material types.

"Found these guys online and was a little bit wary to buy a new van from someone I hadn't heard of. From the off, the first phone call was professional and gave me all the information that I needed, Theo was great, helpful and I proceeded to order my new van, Paige sorted the paperwork quickly and efficiently and within 10 days I had my new van delivered! The price was very competitive and all parts of the transaction were easy and hassle free, wouldn't hesitate to recommend these guys, Thank you so much for a really good experience."

"I was looking for a good deal on a van online and then came across Van away, at first I was a bit sceptical but later went ahead and bought a Peugeot boxer on an unbeatable price online. The sell team were fantastic all the way and very helpful to say the least. I will highly recommend Van away to anybody that's looking for a van of any kind. Thanks Van Away for your first class service and I will be looking forward to a future deal."

"Just purchased a 2nd van through Vanaways to add to our company fleet. Steve Catley was helpful, communicative and informative all the way through the process. We would definitely use Vanaways again, and would not hesitate to recommend them."

"Paige was outstanding in her responsiveness to what presented as a serious problem for our company. The finance company used by her company caused unnecessary and significant delays in the delivery of our van - the pain of which was mitigated somewhat by Paige's proactive communication, informative and realistic communication and very professional demeanour. I'd recommend her and she meant our view of Vanaways was overall positive."
