A Customizable Design

With the 2020 Ford Transit, you can choose from a variety of options, including three different roof heights, two wheelbases, and three body lengths. Four trim levels are also available: Cargo Van, Crew Van, Passenger Van XL, and Passenger Van XLT. The Cargo Van seats two people, and the Crew Van seats five. The Passenger Van can carry up to 15 individuals, and many different configurations are available.

You can select a hinged passenger-side door, a sliding side door, or a power-sliding side door, and the hinged rear doors make loading and unloading easy. Power running boards, heated power-folding side mirrors with turn signals, a keypad for keyless entry, and fog lights are optional. Vinyl seats are standard, or you can choose leather or cloth.

Advanced Technology                                                      

The Ford Transit’s advanced features make driving it comfortable and convenient. It comes with automatic high beams, rain-sensing windshield wipers, a 4-inch screen, voice recognition, two USB ports, and a 12-volt outlet. The vehicle maintenance monitor keeps track of the number of hours that workers run the engine.

With the optional swiveling driver and passenger seats, employees can work with equipment in the back of the van without needing to step outside. You can also add a dual-note horn, SiriusXM satellite radio, two USB ports, voice recognition, navigation, an audio input jack, and an 8-inch touch screen. Reclining rear seats, an overhead shelf near the front seats, two 110-volt power outlets, an 8-inch touch screen, remote start, and a Wi-Fi hotspot are available as well.

Great Performance

This vehicle handles more like an agile SUV than a large van, and it can tow up to 4,530 pounds. It comes with power steering, an independent suspension, stability control, a 10-speed automatic transmission, and a manual parking brake. The 3.5-liter V-6 engine gives 275 horsepower, and there’s an optional turbocharged version that produces 310 horsepower.

You can add a tow/haul mode, a trailer brake controller, a programmable battery guard to keep the battery from going dead if an employee leaves the lights on, all-wheel drive, and an engine block heater. Choose a 31-gallon gas tank to help workers spend less time refilling the tank.

Excellent Safety

The 2020 Transit’s outstanding safety features will protect your employees and make driving easier and less stressful. You’ll get automatic emergency braking, post-collision braking to prevent secondary accidents, forward collision warning, hillside assistance, and lane-keeping assistance. Additional options include adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, a front and rear split-view camera, parking assistance, and sensors to make backing up easier.
