    450 Fleet Customers Line Up for Ford's E-Transit Vans

      Ford is proud to open registration for the new E-Transit Vans supported by 645 Commercial Vehicle Center Dealers across the U.S. E-Transit joins America's best-selling commercial van, the Ford Transit family.

    E-Transit registration opened today, Wednesday 5th of May 2021 for commercial customers highlighted by the fact that they have over 450 commercial customers showing purchase intentions. Pricing for all configurations start at $43,295 and go up to $52,690. Expanded details are available on Fleet Home Page (ford.com)

    Ford used more than 30 million miles of Ford Telematics data in confirming that the average commercial vans in North America only drive 74 miles a day. Ford also understands that there are days with long and shorter range as well as hot and cold weather. This allowed Ford to target the E-Transit with a starting point of 126 miles of range for the Cargo Van Low-roof models with larger battery packs available as needed.

    E-Transit is built without compromise according to Ford as the maximum payload is 3,800 lbs. of cargo for the van low-roof model on a regular wheelbase, 4,250 lbs. on a chassis cab and 4,290 lbs on cutaway. Ford also offers Pro Power onboard which provides a 2.4kW of power for recharging tools and powering tools like drills, saws, jackhammers, laptops and more. Keeping you powered to get the job done is the goal of Pro Power by Ford. 

    Ford offers a very functional and accommodating interior. Ford redesigned the center console with a new rotary shifter and e-brake on the panel. improved walk-through, and a rear shelf delete giving even more head room when moving around the van.

    The E-Transit is build to be driven and helps by having Ford Co-Pilot360 technology and Smart Acceleration Control. Ford has you covered with an 8 years or 100,000 miles (whichever comes first).

    According to Ford, demand is growing for electric vans based on Ford data, shows 70 percent of the full size bus and van business is going electric by 2030 representing over 300,000 BEVs annually in the commercial space. Demand for the wide range of configurations options is based on the history of Ford selling into the commercial space where Ford data shows 40 percent lean towards high-roof vans with the remaining 60 percent going with medium and low roof vans.

    The Ford E-Transit joins the growing family of electric auto's including the F-150e and Mach-E

    • GOP is in for a major reconning imho. Enough people are educated enough to understand that others should not be dictating how another lives especially when you do not pay for their life style, etc. We are coming up on one of the biggest money exchanges ever as the Boomers die off. Yes those that inherit billions are never really going to change their ways, but the bulk of society is not happy with what is going on and I think outside of meddling by Musk and others for the attempted control by Billionaires, U.S. society will stop this. Sadly it will be too late for leadership of this country as that ship sailed and has been sunk by imbeciles. I fear there is going to be major reconning for various industries. Steel, Aluminum, etc. are not going to come back in the droves that current lemmings think they will. Manufacturing of various kinds will also not come back, just to much to setup up and have covered that are already in places with much cheaper labor. BIGGEST area is the American Auto Industry where I believe it will truly be reduced to a fraction of what it is today and just be more of a foot note in history in a couple decades. Very sad due to poor leadership at many levels that cannot seem to see the future. Was waiting to hear if @Drew Dowdell was going to post a story on this or not, but here is the press release of the Cadillac Velocity Concept that channels the essence of the Cadillac V-Series of autos.

    • True that..I ignore much of modern American culture and people...I really have no interest in what the generican masses are into, F them...a nation full of lobotomized imbeciles.   All my stuff is here, my dogs, my house, my cars, my sister, a few friends.   Not interested in moving again--I've moved 5 times in the last 30 years, 4 states.  That's enough..
    • Yep. I am positioning myself financially to leave. And I saw this way before Trump.
