Levertons' electric hearse
Since pioneering the UK's first all-electric eco-hearse in 2013, we've continued to lead with innovation and care. In July 2022, we added the first full-sized electric Nissan Leaf-based hearse to our fleet - demonstrating our commitment to lowering environmental impact without compromising dignity.
A modern alternative with tradition at heart
This hearse is based on the Nissan Leaf, redesigned with a lightweight carbon-fibre body for strength and efficiency. It achieves up to 200 miles on a single charge - with zero emissions, silent operation, and a meaningful way to honour a life in tune with the environment.
The Nissan Leaf saloon car counterpart also carries mourners and bearers in comfort and style - giving families a consistent, respectful experience every step of the way.
Why families choose the eco-hearse
- It reflects a deeper alignment between sustainability values - giving a farewell that lives in honour and thoughtfulness.
- It's quiet, clean journey offers a gentle farewell in cleaner air zones.
- The same attention to detail, respect and personalisation applies - just delivered with a more sustainable vehicle.
