Ford Transit, The most competitive and practical van among rivals running on roads

Apart from standard features, you can ask for optional features to enhance comfort and reliability

Ford Transit vans are seen everywhere in Europe and America. The closed cargo area of these vehicles is now preferred in the United States rather than trucks. Last year over 150,000 units of Transit sold in America which are more than collectively purchased by Europeans. It is proof of the success of this large van in different parts of the world.

American cars are not very good due to their high fuel consumption and outdated design so Transit catches up with the demands of van buyers and has captured the market. Small engines and large cargo capacity of Ford Transit Vans are quite appealing for commercial drivers.

Some pricey large van options like Mercedes Sprinter does not allow the buyers to shut from cheap trucks to these European vans. Ford Transit on the contrary offer reasonably priced large vans with a wide variety in terms of size to encourage van purchase. These vans have the modern tech, fuel-efficient engines and easy service access.

With these advantages, they are also not as expensive as Mercedes Sprinter so their selling in great number was expected. For routine short distance covering these vans are the most suitable and even long-distance drive is not tiring due to reasonably powered engines. Other vans present in the American market does not come closer to this one of the best commercial vans so buyers feel string temptation.

Apart from standard features, you can ask for optional features to enhance comfort and reliability. It is very much Ford and it becomes evident when you get in. Ford Transit CDI remanufactured engines are good for fuel efficiency and performance. 

The variant of the V6 unit is capable of 310 hp

Workers of different professions find Transit vans flexible enough to serve their needs easily. V6 3.5 litre engine is adequate for this full-size van and pulls nicely either laden or un-laden. A more powerful twin turbo V6 engine is also available. The variant of the V6 unit is capable of 310 hp so you can pull heavier load rather easily.

All wheels drive system is also offered but not really needed for such a low speed heavy vehicle. When tracks are covered with snow all-wheels drive is better than rear wheels drive system so an optional drive system is not altogether futile. There are packages to make your Ford Transit more suitable for specific jobs like delivery and off-road adventures.

Driving dynamics are also good so no one can stop selling if the van in high numbers. With these good drive features Ford Transit an easy to handle van though the size is big. Steering is important and Ford Transit steering wheel precision will make you a fan if it. Ford Transit diesel second hand engines are installed in different old vans so that their tough bodies can be used further.

Brakes also do well to stop the vehicle timely and body roll on corners remains limited so you can drive the van confidently. Finding a parking space is not easy but you can park it easily with help of a parking camera. Auto parallel parking feature in expensive models makes this task even simpler. Slower it surer you will be with this aide. If standard features are not enough to satisfy you then a list of optional specs is long. 

Expensive models are bigger, stronger and easy to travel in

Space at the rear is enough to hold much and to keep the articles or boxes protected you can use lashes. There are Transit vans to haul as much as 523 lbs and space value is also big enough to take bigger items. A turbocharged engine with all wheels drive configuration is also available so small engines, as well as strong muscular power units, can be selected from a wide range of options.

Expensive models are bigger, stronger and easy to travel in so you are given every reason to think of these Transit models. Passenger van model extends seating capacity to 15 and crew van gives you second row so 5 seats in it. Cargo van is available in different combinations of dimensions including roof height and length. The payload capacity of a cargo van is up-to 640 lbs.

Assurance for driver mainly offered through Ford Co-Pilot 360 and spending money on it make sense as you get protection as well means to avoid a collision. Making an investment for such additional aides is justified. Most of the day time of a van is spent on roads and accidents could happen anytime. 

Refinement is also better than old day vans

The van has been priced competitively and with all tech features remains cheaper than the Mercedes Sprinter. Other competitors of the van also richer when the same features are sought. It is a pleasure to drive this large van because the steering is precise and the balance trains well. Refinement is also better than old day vans and comfort has also been focused on.

Good visibility also makes driving easier and it is achieved through a wider windscreen and good driving position. The high roof version of the van restricts the moment of the van in areas where the height limit applies or trees are shading roads. Ford Telematics system is specially designed to offer commanding control over the fleet. Driving habits can also be noted through the system so it is very helpful for fleet managers.
