2024 E-TRANSIT™ VAN

Why is E-Transit built with Rear Wheel Drive?

E-Transit has been engineered with a heavy-duty independent rear-wheel drive suspension system specifically created to help improve traction and help provide a smoother ride when payload is at its max.

What is the E-Transit Motor Capability?

E-Transit offers a powerful rear-wheel-drive motor with 266 horsepower (198kW) and 317 lb.-ft. or torque,* making it capable for many jobs.

_{*Calculated via peak performance of the electric motor(s) at peak battery power. Your results may vary. Horsepower and torque are independent attributes and may not be achieved simultaneously.}  

Does the E-Transit receive over-the-air software updates?¹¹²

Yes. It will have Ford Power-Up over-the-air software updates for the SYNC^® 4 system.

Can any Ford Dealer service E-Transit?

The E-Transit can be serviced at over 123 Ford EV-certified dedicated Commercial Vehicle Centre dealers along with the 430 Ford EV-certified dealers who would be ready to provide parts and service as needed.

Is E-Transit eligible for the federal/provincial rebates?

Federal and provincial electric vehicle incentives (each an “Incentive”) are provided separately by select provincial governments, and the Canadian federal government (“Transport Canada”). The Incentives are subject to cancellation or change by Transport Canada or any participating province without notice. Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited is not responsible for any changes to or cancellation of the Incentives and makes no representations about eligibility. For more information about each Incentive, please consult Transport Canada, your provincial government or a Ford dealer. Rebate amount varies by eligible vehicle and purchase option. The Incentives provided by Transport Canada and the participating provinces are applied after applicable taxes are calculated. Certain conditions apply.

Which size battery does the E-Transit have?

The E-Transit has usable capacity of 68kWh from its 400V lithium-ion battery. 

Can E-Transit customers access telematics data without subscribing to Ford Telematics^™?

Yes. The battery electric vehicle energy monitoring and vehicle management tools can be accessed as a stand-alone. Additionally, OEM-grade battery electric data will be available through Ford Data Services^™ for integration with proprietary software or will be accessible through existing telematics service provider networks – eliminating the need for third-party plug-in devices (PIDs).

How does in-cab coaching work?

Real-time in-vehicle driver coaching can help to improve driver performance using the SYNC^® voice assistant. Should a driver exceed a speed limit or not wear their safety belt, for example, the SYNC voice assistant will provide a verbal caution.

What is the benefit of preconditioning the cabin by the fleet manager?

Preconditioning of the vehicle cabin can be done by the driver or remotely by the fleet manager to help improve cabin comfort and preserve range by conditioning while the vehicle is still plugged into the charger, using electricity from the grid, not the battery.

Is the E-Transit also be able to charge in public at non-Ford networked chargers?

Access to North America’s largest public charging network* eliminates the need to register with multiple charging networks or to download multiple apps. E-Transit drivers can use the non-Ford networked chargers as well and will need to pay for charging through direct coordination with those providers.

*Based on original equipment manufacturers (OEM)/automotive manufacturers that sell all-electric vehicles and have publicly announced charging networks and using Natural Resources Canada Electric Charging and Alternative Fueling Stations Locator website (https://www.nrcan.gc.ca). FordPass, compatible with select smartphone platforms, is available via a download. Message and data rates may apply.

Does Ford offer its Ford Connected Charge Station for the E-Transit for fleet purchase?

Yes. For fleet operations requiring a faster charge at home for their employees, Ford will offer a 240V – 48A Ford Connected Charge Station. The available Ford Connected Charge Station is Wi-Fi-enabled and can fully power your vehicle overnight. * Vehicle charge events can be tracked and summarized for employee reimbursement.

*Standard = 120V. Ford Connect Charge Station = 240V. Range and charge time based on manufacturer computer engineering simulations and EPA-estimated range calculation methodology. The charging rate decreases as battery reaches full capacity. Your results may vary based on peak charging times and battery state of charge. Actual vehicle range varies with conditions such as external elements, driving behaviours, vehicle maintenance, lithium-ion battery age and state of health.

Why should employees charge at home?
Charging overnight reduces vehicle and driver downtime and ensures the battery is fully charged to start the workday, with the available 240V – 48A Ford Connect Charge Station. * Ford fleet-wide energy monitoring and vehicle management tools can provide fleet managers with reporting to support reimbursement for employees who charge at home.
