Geely sub-brand Farizon has confirmed its new V7E electric van will launch in Australia this year.

Few details have been revealed about the van at this stage, but variant specifications and pricing will be announced next month, deliveries beginning in May.

It will join an increasingly busy electric van segment, with the likes of the Kia PV5 launching mid-year, along with the Ford E-Transit Custom, LDV eDeliver 7 and Volkswagen ID. Buzz Cargo, which are already in Australia.

Pricing for these electric vans sits in the $60K-$70K bracket, so expect Farizon’s latest edition to be in a similar range. 

It has a lithium-iron-phosphate (LFP) battery made by CATL, the world’s largest battery manufacturer, with a driving range of 330km. This is more driving range than the rivalling E-Transit Custom at 307km. 

The van will come with a 1300kg payload, which is more than the E-Transit Custom, but similar to the LDV eDeliver 7. It also has a cargo volume of 6.95 cubic metres.

It is said to boast a generous internal load length and a low rear loading height.

Farizon launched in Australia through distributor Jameel Motors in 2025, with its SuperVan electric van, which comes in short-wheel and long-wheel base variants, starting from $71,490 (before on-roads).

It is powered by a single electric motor, producing 170kW and 336Nm, with its 83kWh battery offering 376km of driving range. 

There have been more electric vans launching in Australia over the past few years as the segment begins to move away from diesel alternatives. 

Diesel vans remain the popular choice for buyers, with the Toyota HiAce the dominant option, with more than 11,000 sales in 2025.
