Choose the TGE if...
The TGE offers the same body shell and volume options as the Crafter it shares a factory with, but adds a 5.5t rear-wheel-drive derivative not available on the VW, aimed at fleets wanting a heavier payload without a 7.5t truck.
Figures cover front-wheel-drive 3.5t derivatives across Standard, Long and Extra Long wheelbases and roof heights, plus all-wheel-drive 3.5t and rear-wheel-drive 5.0-5.5t derivatives; the 5.0t+ derivatives require a category C1 licence.
Full specifications →Choose the Movano if...
The Movano mirrors the Renault Master's engineering and payload spread, and its Heavy derivatives at 4.25t GVW give UK fleets a way to boost payload past 2 tonnes without a driver needing a C1 licence upgrade beyond the standard 3.5t threshold on the base models.
Figures span L2-L4 lengths, H1-H3 roof heights and 3.5t/4.25t GVW derivatives in both diesel and electric; drivers of the 4.25t derivatives need a category C1 licence as these exceed the standard 3,500 kg car-licence limit.
