Piaggio and Cold Logic have joined
forces to provide a carbon free refrigerated solution to urban food
deliveries. The Porter Electric combined with the expertise of Cold
Logic offers the perfect solution to getting about town and delivering
fresh food to the customer’s requirements.
The Porter Electric is ideal for this
use with very low running costs and outstanding versatility. The
long-life Lead-Gel batteries used in the Porter Electric are
maintenance-free and produce zero emissions, which means that the
vehicle is conveniently exempt from Vehicle Excise Duty as well as
Congestion Charging. Opting for the Porter Electric could result in a
huge saving for businesses that operate vehicles in large towns, or a
city such as London.
The vehicle range is approximately 80
miles between charges, which is just right for making those essential
deliveries. Charging the Porter Electric Chiller could not be easier as
two options are available: the 8 hour standard recharge through a 13 amp
socket or the 2 hour fast charge using a 3-phase supply.
The Porter Electric Chiller is supplied
in left-hand drive which ensures safety for the driver of the vehicle on
busy roads as they will not have to step out into the traffic. The
vehicle is remarkably compact and has impressive manoeuvrability meaning
that deliveries to the narrowest of locations are not compromised. The
Porter Electric Chiller has twin side loading doors and full height
opening rear tailgate therefore giving loading and unloading access from
all sides of the vehicle.
Cold Logic complete the package with
the help of Hubbard Products Ltd who supply the refrigeration unit and
GRP Group who carry out the conversion of the Porter Electric.
Hubbard Products Ltd is one of the UK’s
leading suppliers of refrigeration units. The small, light units are
also designed and manufactured by Hubbard Products and they have earned
a strong reputation. The refrigeration unit itself is powered by its own
battery supply but is conveniently charged at the same time as the
Porter Electric Chiller. The unit will easily maintain the load area
between zero and 5 degrees throughout an average working day.
GRP Group carry out the refrigeration
conversion of the Porter Electric Chiller. They have a wealth of
experience and are the number one choice for completing the conversion
as the UK market leader.
The end result is a green, low
maintenance vehicle with an impressive, high quality conversion perfect
for making deliveries in busy, urban areas.
