Ford E-Transit Full Specification

Our Rating

We’ve heard a lot about the production side of the new all battery electric E-Transit but specification information has been a little vague- to say the least but that’s all changed now. The new vehicle spearheads the European introduction of branding that the manufacturer is calling ‘Ford Pro’ the business to business aspect of their transactions and new worldwide sales and servicing business centred around improving commercial vehicle customers’ productivity with world-class vehicles and cutting-edge products and services.

Ford E-Transit specification

The Ford E-Transit has one battery rated at a gross of 75kWh and a usable of 68kWh capacity pitching it in and around the standard for most electric vans of its size although the e-Vivaro is seen as a medium van and its battery is the same size. As far as range is concerned Ford Pro are quoting up to 317 km or 197 miles to the WLTP standards. The batteries are attached to a single motor offering 430 Nm of torque with a choice of 135 kW or 198 kW maximum outputs. Payload is up to 1,758 kg on the van model obviously dependent on the specification, and the comprehensive range totals 25 variants of van, double-cab-in-van and chassis cab body styles with multiple lengths and roof heights, as well as GVW’s from 3.5 to 4.25 tonnes.

Similar to its diesel ‘cousin’ the E-Transit is available in two trim levels – Base and Trend – but they offer higher specifications than the equivalent diesel model. For instance, the Base series includes Electronic Air Temperature Control, Keyless Start, heated seats, Quickclear windscreen and heated power mirrors.

The Trend adds features such as the Ford Connected Navigation System which can plan the most efficient route and update drivers on charging, traffic, live parking availability, as well as Intelligent Range to display a more accurate distance-to-empty. Available enhanced voice control and embedded Amazon Alexa help drivers receive the information they need without taking their eyes from the road.

Ford E-Transit Unique features

Perhaps one of the most interesting features for the E-Transit is Ford’s unique ProPower Onboard feature, delivering up to 2.3 Kw in the cab and load area to power conversions and equipment while out at work.

This battery electric van also introduces the SYNC 4 communications and information system to Ford’s commercial vehicle range in Europe, offering twice the computing power of SYNC 3 and controlled via an intuitive 12-inch wipe-clean, glare-resistant touchscreen.

In addition, they all feature a standard FordPass Connect modem enabling always-on connectivity with the Ford Pro ecosystem and Ford Power-Up software updates to deliver additional features and benefits. Customers also benefit from a lifetime subscription to FordPass Pro or Ford Pro Telematics Essentials and access to the Blue Oval Charging Network for a year. Fleet customers also receive a year of complimentary access to Ford Pro E‑Telematics.

Driver Assistance and Safety

E-Transit has already been awarded Gold standard from independent vehicle safety authority Euro NCAP for its comprehensive suite of driver assistance systems. The available technologies include Pre‑Collision Assist with Pedestrian Detection, intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Traffic Sign Recognition, Blind Spot Information System with Lane Change Warning & Aid, Lane Departure Warning, Lane-Keeping Aid, and Junction Assist.

Key new driver assistance systems include Reverse Brake Assist, which uses a camera and sensors to detect pedestrians, cyclists and static obstacles when reversing and can deliver a warning before automatically stopping the vehicle if the driver does not react. Drivers also benefit from a new 360-degree camera,on the 12‑inch dashboard screen to help avoid obstacles when manoeuvring in tight spaces with a limited view.

Ford Pro offers a class-leading, one‑year, unlimited mileage service interval and eight-year, 160,000 km warranty for all high-voltage electric components, including cover for excessive degradation, as well as a one-year electric vehicle roadside assistance package including rescue charging.
