Vanaways attended the Commercial Vehicle Show 2026 at the NEC Birmingham this week, joining leading figures from across the road freight, transport, and logistics sectors.

Widely regarded as the UK’s flagship event for commercial vehicles, the show brought together manufacturers, converters, fleet operators, and technology providers. The event offered a comprehensive view of how the industry is evolving and the direction it is expected to take in the coming years.

A strong emphasis was placed on innovation and sustainability throughout this year’s exhibition. Electric and alternative fuel vehicles, advanced fleet management solutions, and intelligent vehicle design were among the key themes, while a series of speaker sessions provided insight into the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of commercial transport.

One of the highlights for the Vanaways team was the opportunity to see the all-new MAXUS eTERRON 9 up close. The vehicle reflects the rapid progress being made in electric commercial vehicle capability and design, offering a glimpse into the future of the sector.

For Vanaways, attendance at the show is not only about staying informed on industry developments, but also about strengthening partnerships, exploring new ideas, and ensuring its van conversion solutions continue to meet the evolving needs of customers. The event also provided valuable opportunities to connect with peers and engage in meaningful industry discussions.

The team described the visit as a productive and insightful experience and we look forward to returning to the show next year.

"First time using Vansaway! I was in a bit of a panic as my van broke down and I was unable to fix it. My van is my livihood, so I looked into leasing and contract. I wish I done it sooner. I spoke to Jonathan as my first point of contact. I couldn't have got any luckier having him as my support. He was absolutely fantastic, he went above and beyond to help me. He was easy to contact and would always reply when I had any concerns or questions. His knowledge on all vehicles was impeccable, which made things easier. He listened to what I wanted and needed and explained everything thoroughly help me making the right choice in plan and kept in touch throughout the entire process! He knew I was in desperate need of a van and he did not disappoint and kept his word and I was able to get my new van delivered as soon as possible. Enjoying the drive. Its great about the perks involved in having a contract hire as well! Thank you so much for everything! Highly recommend, vans are just not how they use to be, so its great to have a brand new van along with the support of any engine faults things like that. A huge stress off my shoulders being sole trader."

"Vanaways is really great, from contacting them up to the delivery can't be smoother than it was. These guys are professionals and I believe the best in the industry. Thanks to Philip Jones, Ross Davies, Jihad Khan and one or two individuals I had contact with throughout the process. I recommend Vanaways and will use them again."
