If you’re in the market for a full-size van that’s as versatile as it is dependable, the Ford Transit at Planet Ford Dallas stands out as a smart, professional-grade choice. With multiple roof heights, flexible interior configurations, powerful engine options, and cutting-edge safety and tech features, the Transit is built to adapt to your business or personal needs.
The Ford Transit offers two engine options tailored to different performance requirements. The standard 3.5L V6 engine delivers 275 horsepower and 262 lb-ft of torque, making it a reliable workhorse for everyday hauling. For those who need a bit more muscle, the available 3.5L EcoBoost® turbocharged V6 pumps out an impressive 310 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired with a smooth-shifting 10-speed automatic transmission, offering confident acceleration and consistent performance across all types of road conditions.
With available all-wheel drive and a finely tuned suspension, the Transit provides stable handling and a comfortable ride, even when fully loaded. Its acceleration is noteworthy for a vehicle in its class, reaching 0 to 60 mph in under 7 seconds with the EcoBoost engine.
One of the Transit’s greatest strengths lies in its flexibility. Whether you need a cargo van, crew van, or passenger wagon, the Transit can be customized to fit your lifestyle or profession. Choose from multiple body lengths, three roof heights, and configurations that accommodate up to 15 passengers.
Ford’s trade-specific upfit packages add even more utility. Whether you’re an electrician, HVAC technician, general contractor, or delivery professional, these packages integrate shelving, drawers, and racks directly from the factory.
Despite being built for heavy-duty work, the Ford Transit doesn’t sacrifice comfort. The cabin is quiet and well-insulated, offering a smooth ride and supportive seating. The dashboard features intuitive controls and ample storage, while wide-opening doors make loading and unloading a breeze.
The Crew Van configuration includes a second row of seats, striking a balance between passenger space and cargo capacity. Passenger models can seat up to 15 people, making the Transit an ideal solution for shuttle services or group travel. If you’re considering a camper conversion, the Transit Trail configuration adds features like swiveling front seats and onboard power inverters to make your build-out even easier.
Technology in the Ford Transit is simple but effective. The standard infotainment system includes a 4-inch display, Bluetooth® connectivity, and a Wi-Fi hotspot, keeping you connected even on the go. For drivers who want more, an optional 12-inch touchscreen running Ford’s SYNC® 4 software is available, offering navigation, Apple CarPlay®, and Android Autoâ„¢ compatibility.
Other optional tech features include SiriusXM® satellite radio and an upgraded audio system, giving you all the tools you need to stay informed and entertained during long hauls.
The Ford Transit includes a solid suite of standard and available safety features designed to keep you and your cargo safe. Standard features include:
Optional upgrades include adaptive cruise control and blind-spot monitoring, both of which can add peace of mind during busy highway drives or tight urban routes.
The Transit has earned high marks in crash testing from federal safety agencies, affirming its reputation as a dependable and protective commercial van.
Though full-size vans like the Transit aren’t subject to EPA fuel economy ratings, real-world tests show average highway mileage in the mid-to-high teens, depending on configuration. Maintenance is straightforward, and Ford offers a standard 3-year/36,000-mile limited warranty and a 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty.
