The E-Transit Custom commercial van from Ford Pro has finally been shown off in Europe. A vehicle that helps businesses that use vans do their jobs much better. With the release of the brand-new Ford E-Transit Custom, Europe's best-selling van is now available as an all-electric vehicle.
Ford's global skills in research and development, design, and software development, as well as its cutting-edge EV technology and digital software and service ecosystem for Ford Pro, all came together to make the Ford E-Transit Custom. This helps businesses lower their total cost of ownership and get more done. So, more people will be able to buy electric cars.
Small and medium-sized businesses helped make the new van. It has a lot of digital and cloud-based features that are meant to make customer service better, and with Ford Power-Up software, it can be updated wirelessly.
Next-gen battery technology lets cars have a range of up to 380 km and charge quickly at 125 kW. Ford Pro's all-in-one charge management and optimization solutions help E-Transit Custom deliver high-quality performance for a wide range of customer needs.
The Ford E-Transit Custom van has high-tech improvements for passenger safety, delivering cargo, and getting into the cab. The cockpit can also be used as a mobile office because it has a 5G internet connection and a lot of different ways to use the space. For example, the steering wheel can be folded into a comfortable position so that laptops and tablets can fit.
The electric Ford E-Transit Custom van can carry up to 1,100 kg and pull up to 2,000 kg.
You can get your own Ford E-Transit Custom van at the Ford Otosan factory in Kocaeli, Turkey. In the fall of 2023, the first batch of goods will be made.
Prospective Ford E-Transit Custom owners, especially sole proprietors and small business owners who also use the van for personal and family reasons, don't always take the same route from the depot. E-Transit Custom made a new, more efficient electric powertrain to meet the needs of these customers and to convince those stuck on diesel engines that an all-electric powertrain is a good choice for their company.
The 400-volt battery in the E-Transit Custom can store 74 kWh of energy that can be used. The battery uses high-tech 81.2 Ah pouch cells, which are also used in the Ford F-150 Lightning. When cellular technology is compared to E-Transit, the energy density goes up by 12%. Customers of Ford Pro say that their vans can go up to 380 kilometers on a single charge, which is more than four times the average daily mileage for a ton van. The battery is attached directly to the chassis, which gives it the most range and makes it last longer.
The electric van can have either a 100 kW (135 hp) or 160 kW (217 hp) engine. The torque of both engines together is 415 Nm, which is the most in each of their classes. Since the drive motor is bolted to the back floor of the vehicle, there is no need for a separate subframe. The structure has also been made easier to understand by getting rid of unnecessary parts, saving weight, and turning it 90 degrees to make more space for cargo.
The E-Transit Custom is the only vehicle in its class that can pull up to 2,000 kilograms. The optional foldable towbar is now a lot more convenient.
The E-Transit Custom is Ford's first all-electric car. It uses a heat pump and a steam jet to heat and cool the cabin more efficiently than a regular heat pump. Every car comes with this technology as standard equipment. It improves the car's overall efficiency, making it easier to drive and warmer in cold weather.
The model can be driven with just one pedal, and it has a good way to stop. With a combination of friction braking and regenerative braking, the system can charge the battery whenever the vehicle slows down, effectively increasing its range. With only one pedal, the van can be brought to a stop.
Any business that can't keep track of its downloads won't do well. This is especially important for smaller businesses that might not have their own fleet and property managers or charging garages underground. If a customer parks and charges their Ford at home, Ford Pro can help them set up and maintain the wall charger, make sure it works with their Ford, and use easy-to-use software to keep track of charging sessions and billing.
Because it can work with DC fast charging at up to 125 kW, the Ford E-Transit Custom can be charged from 15% to 80% in 41 minutes. Tests showed that a 125 kW charger could double the system's range to nearly 38 km in less than five minutes. The Blue Oval Charging Network is the largest in Europe and can be used by Ford Pro customers. There are more than 300,000 chargers in the network right now. When you buy an E Transit Custom, you get a free membership to the Ford Blue Oval Charging Network for a year.
The warranty covers all high-voltage parts, including the battery, for eight years or 160,000 kilometers.
Ford Pro has found that tools have been stolen from half of all construction workers. The E-Transit Custom has new security cameras that are built in and an optional connected security system that can warn owners of possible threats ahead of time. This can cut down on downtime and costs related to tool and vehicle theft. The sensors that watch the doors, hood, and ultrasonic waves are linked to the cameras in the interior and cargo area.
Because it is now less than two meters tall, the Ford E-Transit Custom can now go into parking garages with more than one floor, underground loading bays, and other places with height limits. The class's largest side door opening makes it easy to load.
Even though the Ford E-Transit Custom's passenger compartment and cargo area have a surface pattern that keeps dirt and water from sticking, the car is still made to be as stable and safe as possible when driven with wet or muddy boots, with the added benefit of being easy to slide.
Since van drivers often travel alone, the unique Driver Focus Mode has air conditioning that knows when a seat is occupied. The Ford Kuga was the first car to have the Smart Windshield. It works by figuring out what's going on around the car (temperature, humidity, etc.) and adjusting the heating and cooling systems to match. @Panorica.
