Ten years ago, the Ford Transit rolled off the production line in the United States, marking a new era for commercial vans. Today, the Transit celebrates a decade of success, solidifying its position as America's favorite workhorse.
A Decade of Building America's Van Fleet:
With over 1.2 million Transits assembled in the U.S. and a remarkable 99% retention rate, it's clear the Transit has earned its reputation for durability and reliability. Since becoming the bestselling commercial van in late 2014, it has consistently outsold every other van competitor, including minivans, by the end of 2016.
Innovation Drives the Future:
Ford hasn't rested on its laurels. The company continues to invest in new variants and features, like the segment-first offering of optional all-wheel drive and the groundbreaking E-Transit electric van. The 2024 model year takes the E-Transit even further, boasting an estimated range of up to 159 miles and the ability to add 67 miles of range in just minutes with its impressive 176 kW fast-charging capability.
Powering Up Businesses:
Ford Pro, Ford's dedicated commercial vehicle and services brand, understands the importance of efficient charging solutions. They offer a comprehensive suite of options, including public, home, hybrid, and depot charging, with over 927 commercial charging depots under their management. Additionally, Ford Pro's software helps businesses optimize charging across diverse fleets, maximizing uptime and minimizing costs.
Taking Service on the Road:
Recognizing the critical role of keeping vehicles on the road, Ford takes service directly to its commercial customers, minimizing downtime spent in service bays. Furthermore, Ford Pro Intelligence seamlessly connects with their software suite, including Ford Pro E-Telematics, empowering businesses to optimize vehicle performance and manage multi-faceted fleets effectively.

Their FinSimple™ Financing provides customizable options, including financing for upfits and EV charging infrastructure, alongside access to municipal financing, commercial lines of credit, and dedicated financing experts to navigate the process.
