Charging Strategy for Construction and Trades
Charge overnight at home or the yard using an 11 kW AC charger. An 80 km day uses about 25 kWh when unloaded, more when heavily loaded. The 88.5 kWh battery provides enough buffer that even loaded days rarely need a top-up. For jobs further afield, 155 kW DC charging gives a 10-80% boost in 35 minutes.
Overnight AC charging (recommended)
Plugging in at a depot or home charger (7-22 kW) overnight fully replenishes the battery. At 11 kW, the Maxus eDeliver 7 charges from empty in approximately 8 hours, easily done overnight. For faster turnaround, a 22 kW charger is recommended.
Mid-day DC top-up
If overnight charging is not available, a DC fast charge during a break can add enough range. At 155 kW peak, the Maxus eDeliver 7 charges from 10% to 80% in roughly 40 minutes.

Practical Tips
- The 2,500 kg towing capacity makes this one of the few electric vans that can tow heavy trailers to job sites
- Track consumption on loaded versus unloaded days to get accurate range expectations for different job types
- A 22 kW charger reduces overnight charge time for the large 88.5 kWh battery
- In winter with a full load, plan for 200 km effective range to stay conservative
Operational Notes
The eDeliver 7 exceeds the 80 km daily requirement with its 280 km range. The 1,200 kg payload and class-leading 2,500 kg towing capacity make it suitable for heavy construction and trades work. The competitive price point is a strong factor for cost-conscious trades businesses.
