The big one among the little ones. Available immediately for order: the new "e-load up!", "load up!" and "eco load up!"

  • • This small delivery van takes environmental compatibility very seriously: zero emissions, #up to 990 l cargo volume and a 360-kg payload – with a vehicle length of only 3.60 m
  • • Small agile commercial vehicle with efficiency class A+, two seats, four doors and lots of room in the back
  • • Leather steering wheel, electric windows, Climatronic air conditioning system, 15" alloy wheels, halogen headlights and LED daytime running lights are all standard in the e-load up!

It's small, but watch out! The new e-load up! is an environmentally compatible #citycar and a miracle of space all rolled #up into one, as it's got two seats and four doors – and lots of room in the back as well. What's more, all of this is packed into a vehicle with a length of only 3.60 m and a sustainable and environmentally friendly electric drive that allows this city delivery van to gain access to all zero emission zones in major cities.

The new e-load up! is the ideal solution for frequent driving in inner cities, which makes it perfect for courier services, pizza and other food delivery operations, and service technicians. Although it's the smallest of commercial vehicles, the e-load up! has plenty of space for cargo, yet it takes #up only minimal space on the road, making it ideal for anyone who constantly has to drive, park, and load and unload cargo in a city.
Plenty of payload room.
"Small" is surprisingly big in the case of the e-load up!: #up to 990 l of cargo volume is available in the area from the rear hatch to the mesh partition. A high degree of everyday practicality is ensured by a massive level cargo floor with four fastening rings, trim on the sidewalls and a robust steel lattice on the continuous partition. The maximum payload for the e-load up! is 360 kg at a vehicle weight of 1,230 kg. The payload is even higher in the load up! version – 474 kg at a vehicle weight of only 921 kg. The delivery van's small exterior dimensions give it a turning circle of only 9,800 mm, which makes it particularly manoeuvrable and agile.
Low operating costs.
When it comes to economy, the small e-load up! is a true giant: The model's combined electrical energy consumption of 11.7 kWh/100 km and a range of 160 km give it an efficiency class rating of A+. Operating costs are also reduced by the fact that all electrically powered vehicles are currently exempt from the vehicle tax in Germany.
The load up! petrol engine version is also the most efficient vehicle in its class, with fuel consumption of only 4.4 litres per 100 km. If the petrol engine model is registered as a commercial vehicle, its tax currently amounts to only €32 per year.
The eco load up! has an efficient natural gas drive that boasts consumption of only 2.9 kg per 100 km. The use of BlueMotion Technology with this model leads to outstanding economy and environmental compatibility.
Efficient, practical and economical.
With its partially galvanised body, standard "blade" 5 J x 15-inch alloy wheels, four-doors and a load sill protective film for the rear bumper, the e-load up! offers sustainable and cost saving operation with practical benefits every day. On the outside, the load up! stands out through its black painted radiator grille with chrome trim, while the e-load up! stands out with a blue trim strip on the bottom louvre and the rear hatch, integrated turn signals on the sides of the exterior mirrors and an LED license plate light. The rear side windows and the rear window come tinted as standard, with 65% light absorption. 
Standard interior features in the load up! include controls set in chrome for the sound and air conditioning system, a 12-volt socket in the front of the non-smoker version, integrated cup holders in the centre console, a glove box with a lid and a mesh partition and fastening rings for securing cargo. A remote control central locking system, exterior mirrors that can be adjusted from the inside, a rear window wiper with an intermittent setting and electromechanical power steering are all standard in the load up! as well.
Standard equipment in the electric version also includes the "maps + more dock" smartphone integration system, an AC charging socket, storage compartments in the front doors, each with a holder for a 1-litre bottle, a storage compartment for charging cables in the cargo area, ambient lighting in blue and a “Shark Skin” dashpad.
Small outside, sophisticated inside.
The e-load up! comes with a leather steering wheel and a leather gear knob and handbrake lever as standard. Additional standard equipment includes a speedometer and handbrake lever button set in chrome, a multi-function display, an instrument cluster with an electronic speedometer, odometer and trip meter, a height-adjustable steering column, heated front seats and a height adjustment feature for the driver’s seat.
Moreover, because the new e-load up! is an energy efficiency class A+ vehicle, drivers can enjoy all of these comfort features with a clear conscience. The model also includes additional outstanding standard features in the form of the Climatronic air conditioning system, the Composition Phone radio and sound system with two speakers, electric windows, a rain sensor, electrically adjustable and heated exterior mirrors and an automatic headlight control system with daytime running lights and the "Leaving Home" and manual "Coming Home" function.
The safety of drivers and front passengers is ensured by the City Emergency Brake and combined head and side airbags with a front passenger airbag deactivation feature. Standard safety equipment in the load up! includes ESP with Hill Start Assist, ABS, ASR, electronic brake pressure distribution and engine drag torque control. The standard package is rounded out by internally-ventilated front disc brakes, an electronic immobilizer, LED daytime running lights and a tyre pressure monitoring system. In the #event of an emergency, the load up! is ready with a vehicle tool kit and the Tyre Mobility System, which includes a 12-volt compressor and a tyre sealant. The additional standard features in the e-load up! include automatic hazard light flashing during hard braking, as well as a first-aid kit, a warning triangle and a high-visibility waistcoat.
The new load up! with a petrol engine (44 kW / 60 PS), a 5-speed gearbox and standard 14“ wheels is available from €11,050 (incl. VAT). 
The starting price for the eco-load up! with a natural gas drive system is €14,025.00 (incl. VAT). This model has two steel gas tanks with a total capacity of approx. 11 kg that are mounted on the underbody. The instrument cluster in the eco-load up! shows the amount of fuel remaining, the remaining range and the operating mode (natural gas or petrol).
The electrically powered e-load up! (60 kW) is available from €27,495.00 (incl. VAT).
