The Ford Transit Cargo Van comes standard with a 2-passenger configuration. Speaking of passengers, the Ford Transit offers seating up to 15 riders. These people-movers are perfectly suited to businesses, organizations, charter services, and ride-share companies with a focus on transporting groups of people.
A Tailored Fit
The Ford Transit goes beyond the ability to choose its physical build. You can custom-tailor the interior to fit your specific needs. Heavy-duty tray-style floor mats are standard and help keep the interior clean and undamaged by heavy materials. Plus, an optional sliding passenger-side door makes loading and unloading the cargo area easy, especially when your hands are full of materials.
Whether you need your cargo van to be fitted with extra drawers and storage bins, additional shelving, specialized racks, hooks, or other trade-related options, the Ford Transit is ready to deliver.
CAPABILITY
Buckle up for a ride that defies expectations and where the impossible becomes routine. With the Ford Transit, your high standards are not only met—they’re exceeded.
Built With the Ford Brand
When you think of the Ford brand, you conjure images of durable, high-octane machines that never shy away from a challenge. We’re happy to say legendary Ford capability is infused into every aspect of the Ford Transit, making it just as potent and capable as its cousins.
When properly equipped, the Transit can tow up to 4,500 pounds. Whether pulling a trailer full of landscaping equipment or a portable cement mixer, this model offers precisely what you need.
If you prefer to keep gear stored inside the van, you’ll love that the Transit has a maximum payload capacity of 5,103 pounds.
Nothing Will Hold You Back
Life is full of ups and downs, but with the Ford Transit as your on-road companion, you know every adventure will be smooth sailing. Check out some optional features and specs that ensure you’re always moving forward:
- Fuel tank size: The Transit has a maximum fuel tank of 31 gallons, enabling you to travel farther distances with fewer stops.
