Whether you’re a novice or a seasoned van traveler, traveling in an electric camper van may still seem quite futuristic to you. The Family Van, a specialist in 100% electric camper van rentals, gives you 10 excellent reasons to travel in an electric van.
1. Enjoying an environmentally friendly adventure
Every year it’s the same, with your crew Louise, Gabin, and Théo, you explore beautiful landscapes by van. You are completely in awe of this nature. What spoils the scenery a bit is the smell of gasoline from vehicles like yours… but not this year! You have decided to travel in an electric van, and now you are driving without emitting any emissions, you can take a deep breath at the top of this mountain and just feel… nature. Congratulations to you!
2. Being in total harmony with nature
Traveling in an electric van allows you to be as discreet as a chameleon and in harmony with the nature around you. Arriving at a spot and hearing the sound of the ocean waves, admiring the wildlife on the edge of a forest without disturbing them, or even hearing Gabin snoring between two trips… All of this is part of the adventure thanks to your wonderful electric van.
3. Traveling in an electric camper van is finally taking the time
In everyday life, you barely have time to take a bite out of your sandwich when your phone vibrates to remind you of the 2 PM meeting. Traveling in an electric van is saying hello to slow travel. Here, we organize our trip a bit and take our time. During a recharge, we have a coffee, we play UNO and chat, we drive at a pace that allows us to take in the views… We rediscover that days have 24 hours and savor each one of them.

4. Saving on fuel costs and being able to enjoy other activities
Going on an electric van trip also means your wallet thanks you. This fuel savings allowed you to treat yourself to a surf lesson on the Basque coast. Louise and Théo loved it and Gabin took unforgettable photos of their falls… For you three, it’s for sure that next summer you will go on a surf trip with The Family Van!
5. Optimized charging at night and without a charging card
You are all three sitting facing the sunset at the campsite where you will spend the night. You discuss tomorrow’s itinerary and consider a route, but you can’t decide. Gabin winks at you and takes out the domestic plug of the van. He plugs in your electric van. It’s as simple as that, you sleep, it recharges, and tomorrow you can improvise freely.
6. Your VIP parking spot for electric vehicles!
In the middle of the afternoon, you arrive at a square near Collioure. You can already smell the waffles and spot an Italian ice cream stand. Théo lights up like a Christmas morning. You spot the parking lot, it’s full. Before Gabin can even sigh, Louise cuts him off. She parks on the square’s parking lot, but on one of the spots exclusively reserved for electric vehicles. A few minutes later, you’re enjoying your ice cream cone and toasting to your VIP spot. Your van is charging, and you’re savoring the moment.
7. Traveling in an electric camper van is like taking a trip in a van from the future
