What is a used commercial van?
It’s a light commercial vehicle (LCV) designed for transporting goods or equipment, with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) under 3.5 tons. Ideal for tradespeople, delivery drivers, and local businesses.

What are the different types of used commercial vehicles?
Used commercial vehicles are mainly differentiated by their GVWR:

2.8 tons
3.5 tons (drivable with a standard car license)
Over 3.5 tons (requires a special license)

But more importantly, it's the body type that defines the job-specific use of a used commercial vehicle:

Panel vans, refrigerated vans (single or dual temperature), flatbeds, tippers, toolbox tippers, crew-cab tippers, passenger transport vans, cab chassis for custom builds, insulated or tarp-covered boxes, etc.

A good used commercial vehicle typically has between 50,000 and 100,000 km, which often offers the best value in terms of price and maintenance costs. Of course, this also depends on the body type. Beyond that, rigorous maintenance and a good mechanical condition are essential.
