Ford has launched its all-electric E-Transit van at the 2021 Commercial Vehicle Show in Birmingham.

With a wide range of options, and the promise of class-leading performance, Ford hopes it will help make fleets switch to electric power

The company also says the E-Transit will be competitively priced in the UK. Prices start from £42,695 excluding VAT.

More than 25 variants of the E-Transit will be offered. These range from traditional van to double-cab-in-van and chassis cab body styles, along with various roof heights and body lengths.

Powering the E-Transit is a 68kWh battery pack, which offers a potential driving range of 196 miles. Ford will also offer a choice of electric motors, although both produce 310lb ft of torque. 

Buyers can opt for the special ProPower Onboard feature. This delivers 2.3kW of electricity through standard plug sockets throughout the van. It is designed for use with power tools, additional lighting or refrigeration units.  

A similar feature is included with the North America-only Ford F-150 Lightning electric pick-up truck.

Living the luxury van life

Compared to its diesel-powered vans, Ford will offer the E-Transit with a generous level of equipment. Climate control air-con, keyless start, heated seats and a 12-inch multimedia touchscreen will be standard on all models. 

The higher-specification Trend adds cruise control, parking sensors and the Ford Connected navigation system. This includes an Intelligent Range function, adapting to driving style and weather conditions. 

Fast-charging capability will be included on all E-Transits. Using a compatible 115kW DC charger, the E-Transit will charge to 80 percent capacity in 34 minutes. 

A conventional 230-volt home plug socket will charge the E-Transit in eight hours.

Dependability as standard

Each E-Transit comes with an eight-year/100,000-mile warranty for all high-voltage electric components. A one-year electric vehicle roadside assistance package, including rescue charging, is also included. 

Ford is currently undertaking real-world testing of the E-Transit with fleet users across Europe.

Orders for the E-Transit can be placed now, ahead of the first customer deliveries in spring 2022.
