As your van may well cover a high mileage every year, servicing, maintenance and repair costs are an important issue. With that in mind, Transit is designed and built to minimise the 'cost of ownership'.
In business you rarely get a second chance to make a great first impression and there’s no better way to achieve this than to arrive in style in a multi-award winning Ford Transit. In fact, its name has become so well known that the Ford Transit has become synonymous for van in many languages.
The design, style, features and overall driving experience all combine to make the Ford Transit outstanding. From the outside, the vans dynamic contemporary lines help to convey a professional attitude. Inside, the cabin is spacious, comfortable and full of the latest technology, proving you can mix work with pleasure. And the range of engines and transmissions has been designed to withstand the rigours of working life.
Your choice of commercial vehicle affects the efficiency, productivity and profitability of your business. Making the right choice has never been as important -which is why the new Ford Transit has been further improved and updated: Ford put more new technology in, so you can get more out.
For example, there’s a new, more powerful and highly efficient engine range which meets the stringent Stage V European emissions standards. You also have Smart Regenerative Charging, which only charges the battery when it needs it, plus an option on the ECO Pack of an Auto-Start-Stop system, which saves fuel (and money) whenever you have to stop.
Combined, these and many other innovations make the new Transit more fuel efficient, harder working and better looking than ever before.
Keeping costs to a minimum:
- Strong residual values due to high quality build, durability and specification
- Lower fuel consumption due to a new range of improved engines combined with many other technical innovations
- Enhanced component life, easily replaceable parts extended service intervals
- Competitive insurance ratings due to comprehensive safety and security systems
Improved component life span:
Attention to detail in the design process has increased the durability and life span of components, making them easier to access and repair.
'Smart’ starting system
Standard on all TDCi vehicles, this monitors the engine speed during cranking and disengages the starter motor as soon as the engine is able to run by itself. The system reduces starter motor failure and enhances battery life.
Twin batteries
These are available on all rear-wheel drive vehicles, which improves start performance.
Competitive repair costs
Thoughtful design and careful component selection also means that Transit offers competitive repair costs. Here are some of the key factors:
- Redesigning key areas and components including the bonnet and bumper position as well as the front lights.
- Retaining easily repairable sections: three-piece front bumper and five-piece rear bumper.
- Easy wheel changing
- The Transit comes with an easily accessible spare wheel and vehicle jack, conveniently located in a space-saving carrier below the vehicle.
