Second Generation Ford E-Transit May Be Built In OhioAgree at a personal level that the new Ford Transit Custom would make a great addition to van lineup. It is reported that in Europe it will be offered in BEV, plug-in hybrid, and diesel variants, though diesel would likely not make it to North America in any case. From everything I've read about the FWD Custom with 2.5L PHEV powertrain, it could meet some of Transit Connect demand, yet offer greater room in a package small enough to fit in average home garage. The passenger version may be able to double as a tall minivan for some buyers.
Though Ford hasn't officially announced the Custom high-roof variant yet AFAIK, based on prototype photos and dimensions, I believe it will be too tall for many non-commercial buyers. It looks out of proportion and will likely affect highway fuel economy and handling. The previous Custom high-roof option looked much better to me, and was probably tall enough for many buyers to stand upright.Wed, 06 Dec 2023 13:55:24 +0000
