Best Medium Vans To Lease

Alongside small and large vans, medium vans sit squarely in the middle of the light commercial vehicle marketplace. Big names like the Ford Transit Custom and Vauxhall Vivaro are the epitome of medium vans offering spacious and hard-wearing cabins, weight carrying ability, decent load spaces and attractive aesthetics. The medium van market offers a lot of choice, which is why we’ve put together this list of three of the best medium vans to lease right now.

Medium vans usually offer a good blend of comfort, style, practicality and a smooth driving experience. They are a popular light commercial vehicle type, able to carry decent-sized loads while still being compact enough to park in normal parking spaces. Fleets of all sizes operate medium vans in a variety of roles carrying everything from cargo to crew. The choice of drivetrain is also becoming more important with diesel, petrol, electric and hybrid medium vans all vying for attention.
The Ford Transit Custom, the UK’s best selling medium van, is a good example of what makes a medium van such a useful vehicle. Firstly, it’s a good looking vehicle. Secondly, its cabin is comfortable and made from hard-wearing materials. And depending on the drivetrain, it can carry somewhere between 700-1400kg of payload. These are the main reasons why medium vans tick so many boxes for so many businesses.

Leasing a medium van offers many advantages, particularly if you need to transport larger loads over long distances in a comfortable vehicle without breaking the bank. When you lease a van, you simply pay for what you use and then hand it back at the end. Head to the leasing section of the site and you’ll find van lease deals on light commercial vehicles of all sizes.

The Ford Transit Custom really should need to introduction, it’s the UK’s best-selling van and has been for nearly a decade. It’s often seen as the benchmark for medium vans because of its competitive price, excellent cabin and all-round practicality thanks to those 1400kg payloads and diesel, electric and hybrid drivetrains. If this isn’t on your list of vans to compare, it should be, and it’s even more competitive on price when you lease.

One of the most popular medium vans alongside Ford’s is the Vauxhall Vivaro, a true cornerstone of the British van market. It is a platform-sharing van from the Stellantis stable, which means it is either diesel or electric powered, offering payloads of up to 1400kg. The latest updates to the Stellantis vans has made them even more good looking, too.

It’s not hard to see why the Renault Trafic continues to be a popular medium van to lease. It’s tough, bold looking, can carry payloads of up to 1200kg and comes with a volumetric alarm system fitted as standard. Yes, it can’t carry quite as much as other medium vans, but it’s such an attractive van and its cabin is still one of the best on the market.
