10 Best value Euro 6 vans

The continued post-Brexit negotiations are unlikely to have any impact on the application of Euro 6 to ensure there is a common standard across the continent.
European standards on emissions began in 1992 to ensure vehicle manufacturers keep harmful exhaust pollutants below specific limits. Euro 6 is the sixth iteration of such regulations. An investment in a Euro 6 van is a sensible one. Not only are the vehicles exempt from charges applied to Low Emissions Zones, but they are also less expensive to run and better for the environment than their predecessors. All are Euro 6 compliant but you should always check by entering the details into the emissions look-up tool on the Vehicle Certification Agency (VCA) website or the vehicle’s registration papers.

1. Ford Transit Custom

No longer the white van which built Britain, the Ford Transit is now a range of vehicles rather than the all too familiar panel van. The Custom is the short and medium wheelbase variety in the current family of four Transits. The Custom is offered in two lengths and two heights. It can be configured as a five-seat cab van or the Kombi crew option which can seat nine people. The Custom is the most popular Transit and continues to top the best-selling lists.

The Mercedes-Benz Vito is an excellent mid-size all-rounder, with car-like handling and some excellent technological features on board. Available as a panel van or crew cab, the Vito is available in three lengths. It will carry a max payload of 1200kg and simply because the Vito is also intended as an upmarket people carrier, it drives like a dream and the very presence of a Merc badge upfront will say a lot about the business driving it and the goods within.
