The Challenge
Dalemead Care Home in Richmond, London, sought an environmentally-friendly wheelchair-accessible vehicle (WAV) to meet their specific range requirements and enhance their transportation services. They needed a reliable electric vehicle to provide comfortable and sustainable transport for residents, a necessity for a care home committed to combining quality care with environmental consciousness.
The Solution
WAVs GB approached E-Van Guru for expert advice on the electric WAV market, resulting in the recommendation of the Mercedes e Vito Tourer. This vehicle matched Dalemead’s range criteria and offered the necessary comfort for care home residents. E-Van Guru facilitated the acquisition of a new, metallic Mercedes e Vito Tourer L2 PRO 100kwh from Midlands Truck and Van Mercedes. Working closely with AMF Bruns for the WAV conversion and handling the IVA process, E-Van Guru expedited the entire operation, delivering the vehicle within just 10 weeks of the order.
The Outcome
The collaboration between Dalemead, WAVs GB, and E-Van Guru proved to be seamless, with family members Naheed and Umar involved in every step, from procurement to final delivery. The delivery also opened discussions on future charging infrastructure, indicating a long-term commitment to sustainable practice. Dalemead’s trust in E-Van Guru to deliver the ideal vehicle for their needs was met with a solution that aligned perfectly with their ethos of care and sustainability.
