The Farizon SV is coming to the UK. Note that ‘SV’ stands for the attention-catching ‘SuperVan’. No, this isn't another one of Ford's wildly overpowered wonders.

Farizon is an emergent Chinese-built commercial vehicle maker, and this Supervan is for production, unlike those mad Transits.

There are notable little quirks to the Farizon version, like the design which does away with the B-pillar (apparently making it more versatile for customer configurations) and a front end which appears to draws inspiration from industry underdog, the Fiat Multipla.

The modular platform will initially feature a choice of two battery packs – 67kWh or 83kWh – with a 106kWh option to follow. We've been told there could be as many as 342 miles of city range (WLTP), but whether it's a comparatively wildly overpowered Transit rival is yet to be understood – we suspect it's highly unlikely to compete with the 2023 Pikes Peak record-setter.
