Europe’s best-selling van just went all-electric

Earlier this year we announced that four new electric commercial vehicles will be joining our E-Transit in Europe by 2024.
 
Now we’ve revealed the first of those four. Called the E-Transit Custom, it’s the first all-electric version of Europe’s best-selling van ^1,2 and is designed to help businesses across the region to effortlessly make the change to electrified vehicles.

The new van’s batteries will give it a targeted driving range of up to 380 km, ³ and can also be used to power tools, lights and devices while working on building sites or at customers’ homes.

With fast-charging and full towing capability it’s designed to be simple to operate and hugely practical. The smart design also extends to its expressive and sculptural styling, with full LED lighting contributing to looks that companies will be proud to have represent their business.

E-Transit Custom is the latest major step in our electrification transformation, and like all of our vans and pickups is supported by the full Ford Pro ecosystem of productivity-enhancing, value-adding solutions, from fleet management software to charging, service and financing.
 

“This is a watershed moment for commercial vehicle operators in Europe, and another hugely significant realisation of our Ford Pro ambitions. Europe’s best-selling van just went all-electric and – supported by our unique Ford Pro one-stop-shop of productivity-boosting services – the operating benefits this will bring to business across Europe cannot be overstated.”
