A UK veterinary business is adding electric pick-ups to its fleet through a deal with KGM Motors UK.
Inspiring Vet Care’s network comprises more than 900 veterinary practices alongside hospital, referral, farm and equine operations, supported by approximately 15,000 colleagues. The group combines locally delivered veterinary care with continued investment in clinical standards, professional development, facilities and innovation.
The fleet will be funded by Novuna Vehicle Solutions and converted by West Midlands-based specialist Gearmate to meet Inspiring Vet Care’s operational requirements, with the first vehicles delivered during October.
The Musso EV uses an 80.6kWh battery that delivers up to 240 miles of WLTP range. It has full-time all-wheel drive, 207hp and 339 Nm of torque.
There's also a payload of up to 690kg and 2.3-tonne braked towing capacity which will provide a practical solution for that is fleet operating across a wide variety of locations and environments.
The Musso EV's self-levelling rear suspension also helps maintain stability as loads change and vehicle-to-load technology will allow electrical equipment to be powered directly from the truck.
The Musso EV fleet also supports Inspiring Vet Care’s wider sustainability strategy. Through its Positive Pawprint programme, the group is working towards net zero, with the transition to hybrid and electric fleet vehicles forming part of its approach to reducing emissions from its operations.
Each vehicle will undergo specialist conversion by Gearmate before entering service, providing modular and bespoke storage solutions for commercial fleets and pick-ups, allowing the vehicles to be configured around Inspiring Vet Care’s specific operational requirements.
Alongside the Musso EV fleet, Inspiring Vet Care has also ordered the KGM Rexton Commercial, which will undergo specialist conversion by Gearmate. The two-seat car-derived van offers a 2,200-litre load area, a payload of more than 700kg, selectable four-wheel drive with low range and up to 3.5 tonnes of towing capacity, providing an additional option for duties requiring greater load space or heavier towing capability.
The Musso EV is priced from £39,995 including VAT and the £5,000 Plug-in Van Grant. It also benefits from a 4% Benefit-in-Kind rate for 2026/27, with personal tax costs from approximately £30 per month for a 20% taxpayer.
