Not only is the Ford Transit Custom the best-selling van in Europe, it’s now going to be available with all-electric power. For the first time ever, you and your business can enjoy the popular Ford commercial vehicle with zero emissions.
Whether you’ve already seen the benefit of all-electric vehicles in your business fleet or are only just considering making the change, here is everything you need to know about the all-new all-electric Ford E-Transit Custom.
A commitment to electric
The Ford E-Transit Custom is part of a brand-wide shift to electric and electrified vehicles. Since 2020, Ford’s electrification strategy has seen the manufacturer make a $11 billion investment in its commitment to offering a largely or entirely electric line-up of vehicles. This includes Ford commercial vehicles, and the Ford Transit Custom is the latest Ford van to receive an electric facelift as part of this move. It follows in the footsteps of the Ford E-Transit, which was the first Ford van to be available with fully electric power, the Ford E-Transit Courier and the Ford E-Tourneo Custom.
Reduced emissions, reduced costs
As with any fully electric vehicle, the all-new Ford E-Transit Custom offers zero emission drives no matter how far you go. Not only is this an easy way for your business to proactively reduce its environmental impact on an ongoing basis, but it will also reduce the running costs associated with vehicle use since you’ll never need to refuel.
Fast charging, long lasting battery power
The all-new, all-electric Ford E-Transit Custom comes equipped with the kind of powerful battery you would expect in a vehicle that is built to perform. With a targeted range of up to 236 miles between recharges, you won’t have to worry about having your workflow interrupted by inconvenient stops during business hours. With a Ford Pro Charging wallbox, you can even take your E-Transit Custom home to charge overnight and, should you find yourself needing a recharge during the day, a public charger will be able to give the van an extra 23 km in as little as five minutes.
Designed for efficiency
Even though the Ford Transit Custom is a van that many businesses across the UK and Europe are familiar with and depend on, the all-electric Ford Transit Custom was designed in every way to be an electric vehicle. The new E-Transit Custom integrates with Ford’s leading EV technologies, and works with the Ford Pro charging, servicing and management software to make operations as easy and efficient as possible - even if it will be your company’s first fully electric vehicle.
A mobile office
The all-new Ford E-Transit Custom isn’t just designed to help you get around as efficiently as possible. It can also act as your office on the go, with the possibility to have a tilting steering wheel that doubles as a makeshift laptop stand when you need a desk away while you’re out on deliveries, moving between meetings or running errands. The new van also comes with all the technology you’d expect for a leading business vehicle, including built-in Ford SYNC 4 which provides a powerful 5G modem and smartphone integration to make every drive as seamless as can be.
