This battery-pack can be filled up using DC fast chargers. The standard 50 kW charger will take the battery from 10 to 80 % in 80 mins. The optional 110 kW will do this in 45 mins.

The new battery is a huge upgrade compared to the model it is replacing. The first eVito Tourer that was released in March has a 41. 4 kWh battery. This pack allows 156-186 km of range (97-116 miles).

The electric eVito Tourer and the EQV, as well as the internal combustion engine-powered Vito and V-Class, are manufactured in Spain.

The eVito Tourer is targeted for a hotel shuttle, a large-capacity taxi or a vehicle for ride-sharing services.

In Germany, the new eVito Tourer passenger vehicle starts at €53,990 (or about N24.4 million. This price excludes destination and clearing charges in Nigeria)
