The electric

Application, charging & autonomy

Travelling in an electric van is an ecological choice. By renting a 100% electric campervan at The Family Van, you will enjoy nature while respecting it.

Autonomy: With their autonomy of 330km (80km/h) or 250km (110km/h), our electric vans allow you to travel long distances without worry.

Electric refills: Our electric vans are equipped with fast charging (100kW/h or 40mins). You will therefore be able to take advantage of the 300,000 charging stations in France and Spain. In addition, a mains charger will allow you to recharge on camping sites, in a local home or on a remote farm, who knows?

Fuel savings: Whether on the terminals and on the mains, driving electric is cheaper! For example, our co-founder drove more than 4000 km for only... 350€! Who says better?

Silence and Comfort: The electric motors are quiet, offering a pleasant and relaxing driving experience. Enjoy peace and comfort while exploring new horizons.

Very nice discovery of the South-West with the 100% electric van! Everything is well thought out and optimized inside. The autonomy of the van is sufficient for a discovery of the region over a few days. The Family Van team was very attentive. Despite the fairly cool weather we enjoyed it and we recommend it with pleasure!

First experience in an equipped van and first experience in an electric vehicle so a bit of apprehension.
But the team at The Family was very available and very efficient in answering all our questions and put us in the best conditions to make the most of the stay.
The vehicles are in excellent condition and are very easy to handle.
In addition, the fact that it is 1.90m high allows you to park everywhere, which is extremely practical.
I recommend without hesitation!

3 great days spent thanks to the family van, rediscovering the Basque country under a beautiful sun.

“Superb first experience in an electric vehicle with The Family Van! The van is very comfortable, very well thought out, furnished and equipped. Easy to drive, it quickly provides a feeling of freedom. All the information and advice shared by Kevin and Noémie allow you to leave with a light mind. Simple and practical charging ensures peaceful driving... and silent!
On the beach, in the mountains, in the forest or on a campsite, we spent quality moments and comfortable nights thanks to this van, which also fits everywhere.
A big thank you to The Family Van for your quality services, your availability and your passion that you transmit with such kindness! And above all, see you very soon for new adventures!”

Recently rented a campervan from The Family Van for a week of road trip and it was just great! The van was equipped with everything I needed for a super comfortable trip. And the company's service was impeccable and very welcoming. I highly recommend it for all future travelers looking for a great experience. Thanks again and I will not hesitate to repeat that this summer:)!

Our van road trip was great. The van itself is very well thought out, we have space, it is airy and not too busy. Easy to use and really pleasant.

We identified a few points that could be improved, such as the cover, which was a bit small for two, I think that individualizing it can be nice and adding a fixed mirror as well. The electrical side is great in the sense that the level of impact on the environment and the silence is really important for us, we had trouble recharging the van because many terminals in Biarritz did not work, which caused a little stress but I think it's a habit and a habit to get into.

In any case the size of the van allowed us to go everywhere without problems and the layout is really nice.

Thank you again for this beautiful stay which did us the greatest good

First experience in a Van

We took a short tour of Landes and the Basque Country in an electric van from The Family Van this summer. The team that looked after us is great, helpful, welcoming, available throughout our stay if we had any questions or need help, you can trust them with your eyes closed.
The vans are new, well maintained, functional, everything is there for a good stay.
For our first time in a van, we highly recommend The Family Van;)

First experience in a van for my boyfriend and I, we loved it. We visited the Basque country (French and Spanish) at the pace of an electric van.
We took the opportunity to surf thanks to the boards rented with the van.

We tested the ThevanFamily electric van during a 4-day road trip in Landes. We really enjoyed this ecological and economic experience. Indeed, there was no need to fill up with gas (that's the principle) and to recharge, we stopped for the night at campsites or used fast charging stations during our lunch breaks or visits. And what about the layout of the van? Ideal for 1 or 2 people, it offers bed, fridge and kitchen space. A small studio on wheels, super practical. Personally, we fully subscribe to this new concept.

9 days of vacation in an electric campervan. It was fun and fun to drive. If you stay in the same region and don't leave for miles, electricity is not a problem! There is storage and the bed is quite comfortable. The only disadvantage is that you have to cover yourself well if you leave when it is cold, because the insulation is very light.

Very good first experience in an Electric Van. Autonomy and recharging are not really a hindrance. On vacation it allows you to take your time and visit when recharging.

The van is very well appointed and perfectly equipped down to the smallest details (seasonings, dishwashing liquid, tea towel,...).
The team is very friendly and attentive.
We highly recommend The Family Van, and we will repeat the experience soon.

The desire to travel in a van had been itching for some time. After several searches, we came across The Family Van. It was a wonderful experience both in terms of supporting the team in preparing the trip and the experience in an electric van.
We explored the South West for 12 days, from the beaches of Lacanau to Hossegor via the Pyrenees. We loved the freedom that the van offers thanks to its versatile size, its comfort and the tranquility of driving electric.
The region offers charging stations everywhere and at ultra-reasonable prices, magnificent spots and a jovial atmosphere.
Thanks again to The Family Van for such a great experience!

The welcome was nice, the van in great condition and finally the electric experience quite cool. The initial stress is gradually disappearing. You just need to know that it's not made for long stays and long mileages. To be done again...

I rented an electric van to discover the moors with my dog (The Family Van is “Pets Friendly”). My biggest fear was struggling to charge the van. But in fact, there are many stations installed and in addition, easy to locate, with the ChargeMap application. I really enjoyed traveling in silence:) And parking in the only parking space that was left... reserved for electric cars, to plug in. Then, the Landes department, and great! Loved it! The team is very attentive, they help, throughout our trip, if we have a technical question! Very reassuring!

Very well equipped van where everything is there and has been well thought out, very pleasant to drive thanks to its small footprint, you can park everywhere. It is easy to recharge it either at the fast terminals or simply at night on a simple plug in the campsites while you sleep! Noémie and the team are very responsive and friendly, they are there to answer questions at any time. It was our first experience and I was a bit worried but in the end it was very simple! I recommend 😃

Travelling in an electric van is a necessary adjustment, made so enjoyable by the great team at The Family Van!

We had a great stay thanks to thefamilyvan. We went as a couple with our 2 and a half year old daughter, it was our first trip in a van and they helped to make it unforgettable!
I had heard about this company on the networks and I admit that I liked the idea of traveling by electric vehicle from an ecological point of view.
As soon as we booked our questions about the car seat (which was purchased for the occasion, thank you again!) and other details were answered very quickly.
The van was very pleasant to drive and everything needed was available. Camping chairs and a tent + duvet were even provided. Everything is ultra-functional and aesthetic what's more. The 2 seater mattress is very comfortable and suited all 3 of us!
It is very easy to do with electricity. We had a little scare in the Spanish Basque mountains with the battery running out quickly but if we honestly know it we didn't feel slowed down at all by the electricity. It's great to drive and to tell yourself that you can enjoy nature by polluting it a little less.

So we highly recommend the experience and especially with TheFamilyVan. Thanks again to the whole team for the organization and the quality property that you provide.

We went in a van with a young man...

We went in a van with a 14 month old child all weekend. The Family Van team not only gave us names of beautiful campsites to park but also really gave us confidence for this mini road trip on the coast. Driving the electric and automatic van is a real pleasure. Three seats in the front ok for a baby seat. I recommend x1000. Our experience was great from start to finish. Charging or thinking about the consumption of a van is not a problem in itself since I think that it corresponds exactly to the slow and agile lifestyle (prerequisites for traveling in a van). Thanks to The Family Van!

First experience in a van carried out with The Family Van Team last week in the Basque Country.
An extraordinary stay that allowed us to reconnect with nature, to discover new spots every day in a very accessible way and in complete freedom without a real detailed program; a real pleasure!
The attentive, smiling and available team takes care of you from the beginning to the end of your stay. Everything is designed to make the most of your experience. The van is very well laid out, all spaces are optimized with storage, a kitchen area, an outdoor shower, a dry toilet, a sofa that can be transformed into a double bed, an indoor and outdoor table, outdoor chairs. A lot of things are also provided so that you have as few things as possible to bring by yourself: dishes, bed linen, kitchen essentials etc.
In summary it is an experience that we loved, that is turnkey and that we recommend with our eyes closed!
It's up to you to try the adventure:)

Thanks to the team who are always very helpful if we have a question during the trip.
The vehicle is incredibly comfortable in terms of driving! And it's well laid out. Everything is planned in the van.
All utensils, salt, coffee, comforter, pillows everything! You just have to come with your stuff!

For the more cautious, if you go in winter, bring a sleeping bag and warm clothing in addition.

Big plus for us, it's animal friendly, so you can travel with your 4-legged friend!
So we were able to travel with our cat, who didn't want to leave the van!
