Every E-Transit Custom is fitted with a 64 kWh (useable) battery for a maximum driving range of up to 337 km. ¹ E-Transit Custom is the first-ever electric vehicle to use vapour-injected heat pump technology to heat and cool the cabin, fitted as standard to all vehicles. This new system is designed to deliver improved energy efficiency for optimum driving range. Regenerative braking enables one-pedal driving for more comfortable urban driving and improved efficiency. ⁸

The drive motor is fitted directly to the rear floor and rotated 90 degrees to maximise loadspace and reduce weight and complexity. Customers can choose from 100 kW or 160 kW (135 PS or 217 PS) power outputs to suit their needs, each offering a class-leading 415 Nm of torque. ⁹ A more powerful 210 kW motor is offered exclusively on the E‑Transit Custom MS‑RT model.

Electric driving range is up to 337 km. ¹ A full charge with an 11 kW Ford Pro Home Charger takes about 6.7 hours. ¹⁰ Customers can also charge from 10-80 per cent in about 39 minutes on a 125 kW DC charger; in lab testing, a 10-minute charge added 82 km of range. ¹⁰

E‑Transit Custom’s electric drivetrain delivers class-leading towing capacity of up to 2,300 kg, ⁵ meaning customers who tow heavier weights in low-emission zones could replace their diesel vehicles in roles that no other all-electric one-tonne van can fill.

The battery is packaged into the load floor above the sill flange to eliminate the need for separate crash structures. For optimum space and weight efficiency, other underbody components are “shrink-wrapped” around the battery.

As on the larger E-Transit, customers can specify the 2.3 kW Pro Power Onboard system to power electric tools and external lights needed on the job. ¹¹

Ford Pro anticipates that E-Transit Custom will deliver lower operating costs compared to an equivalent diesel vehicle; for E-Transit, the reduction in servicing cost of ownership can be as much as 40 per cent. ¹² Maintenance savings come from a two-year, unlimited distance service interval and an eight-year, 160,000 km warranty covers all high-voltage components for complete peace of mind.

Ford developed the E-Transit Custom through deep customer engagement, including with many SMEs, to establish the key features and capabilities the new vehicle had to deliver. The all-new architecture underpins a new level of productivity with features such as:

• A lower load floor, class-leading side door aperture and new side step for easier loading
• Overall height under two metres on most models for improved access to height-restricted areas
• Semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension to enhance traction, handling and steering precision

Innovations designed to make the cab more productive and comfortable on long shifts include:

• Mobile Office option pack with tilting steering wheel
• Time-saving Delivery Assist technology ⁸
• Repositioned front wheels and strut towers to improve space and cross-cab access
• Roof-mounted passenger airbag to create new dashboard storage area large enough to take a laptop or A4 file
• As security of their vehicle, tools and loads is critical to SMEs, Ford Pro is introducing factory-fit TVL lock packs to enhance security without the cost and downtime of aftermarket fitment.

Every E-Transit Custom is fitted with a 13‑inch landscape touchscreen ¹³ angled towards the driver for ease of use, equipped with Ford’s advanced SYNC 4 communication and infotainment system powered by 5G modem ³ for connectivity to the Ford Pro tech stack. Further on-the-go productivity comes from Alexa Built-in, ¹⁴ meaning drivers can use simple voice commands to voice-activate calls and even make purchases directly through Amazon.com

More than 30 separate modules on E-Transit Custom are capable of receiving wireless software updates. These can help improve vehicle performance, deliver quality upgrades, update existing features and add all-new functions and capabilities. Most updates are completed in under two minutes and can be scheduled to avoid downtime.

Many businesses require specialist converted features such as refrigeration units or additional lighting. Ford Pro’s new Vehicle Integration System makes this process faster and simpler, and can result in a more reliable vehicle – ideal for SMEs without the time or in-depth knowledge to manage conversions. A network of around 200 approved Ford Pro Convertors in Europe can deliver conversions from off-the-shelf to fully bespoke, all with factory-level support.

As part of the most comprehensive Transit Custom range ever, E-Transit Custom operators can specify L1 or L2 vehicle lengths and a broadest-yet range of bodystyles to support any business use case:

• Panel van, with load volumes up to 6.8 m3 and payloads up to 1,011 kg ⁴
• Double-cab-in-van, with a three-seat second row and fixed bulkhead
• Kombi, with maximum flexibility between cargo and up to eight passenger seats
• MultiCab, with a two-seat second row, full-length cargo area and solid bulkhead

Operators can choose a series option to suit their specific needs from the four-strong line-up:

• Trend combines functional, hard-working ability with sophisticated technologies
• Limited adds 16-inch alloy wheels, body-colour exterior details and full loadspace trim
• Sport features unique stripe decals, 17-inch alloy wheels and a luxurious cab
• MS-RT with rally-bred style including spoilers, skirts, diffuser and 19-inch alloy wheels

For small businesses keen to electrify but with use cases not suited to full electrification, Ford Pro offers the Transit Custom PHEV, ^{15, 16} with pure-electric driving capability for city centres and petrol power for extended highway trips. The new powertrain is similar to that used by the Ford Kuga Plug-In Hybrid ^{15, 17} – Europe’s top-selling PHEV for the past three years ¹⁸ – and combines a 2.5-litre Atkinson cycle petrol engine with an 11.8 kWh (useable) battery to deliver 233 PS, a pure-electric driving range of up to 56 km and Pro Power Onboard.
