I know this isn't what you asked, but IMO covers are a bad idea. They trap dirt which then gets ground into the paint by the wind. Modern paints don't need sun protection. Just block the windows to protect the interior.

Pretty much agree, plus condensation, mold, mildew.........

But maybe not? Heck if I know, so so many variables Offhand I don't recall any real evidence...... But maybe there is some

I think some of it depends on where you live.

Wind flapping a cover, bad, rubs through paint even.

Wide swings in temp and humidity, bad, condensation and mildew.

Hot sun on the van all day, cover is good.

Lots of rain, hail, acorns, cover is good.

If a carport is legal, and you have room, it may be a better overall solution, though, and it would be a lot easier to take on and off
