Ford Transit is there on British roads 50 years now and due to potential in the field, it will remain in for a long time. There is a cluster of rivals in the category in which Transit is placed. But as the competition has increased so are the choices with this Ford van. Transit Courier and Transit Connect vans come under the section of compacts also including a mid-sized Transit Compact van. The story does not end here and you get a very wealthy number of configurations that can make your vehicle the way your need is. It is claimed by Ford that there can be 450 ways to order only one of the line-up. Panel vans, tipper trucks, crew cabs, minibuses and chassis cabs.
There is still more and you can also customize the wheel base and roof heights according to your need. And then comes the Ford Transit Diesel Engines that completes the package as desired by a customer. With its 2016 update there is a good list added to keep it environment and pocket friendly.
The diesel powering system
Engines promise a reliable ride and a powerful one too. There are three engines that Ford offer and all of the three stem from a basic 2.0-litre Eco Blue. It offers 104 bhp, 128 bhp and a 168 bhp. Of all these three the 168 is a range topper and has a lot of performance to offer. The torque of 405 Nm can be triggered from 1,750 rpm. Its super refinement and flexibility really present a smart deal which you surely cannot miss. 128 is also a good seller it is just a little short in the speed and some refinement is missing but adequate for those who are not conscious of getting every thing.
For the last option 104 is not desirable one for most but still if you cannot go up the ladder then it will serve its purpose well for you. And if you cannot afford a new one then there are Transit reconditioned engines that work in the best way for your purpose.
Load space has become better
The rear if this upgraded version is so shaped so as to facilitate the loading and unloading better than before. The doors open 180 degree wide and there should be no problem in the task. There is a slight problem in this area that it is short of space than its rivals. Other in this category offers more in this area.
But they fail to provide many of rest of the things. The comfort of driving and a clean dash with a nice display and not a cluster of buttons make the cabin neat and clear. May be in the next face lift the problem of space will be solved as with a hard working team the old Transit is already transformed into a much better choice.
Reliability and safety is up to standard
Even in the van like a load carrier may it be for passengers or for other purpose there is a really good list of safety features which are essential for such a commercial use transport. Reliability is one of the highs for this van as there are no reports of any dislike from the customers after using it on day to day bases. There is the advanced ECS stability control system with add-ons which is never fitted in a van before. Side Wind Stabilization and curve control technology which is there to keep the vehicle in control when there are unusual conditions. Trailer sway control is another very useful check for the nearby trailers. Even more is present in the optional side you can utilize them if spending some more is not a problem.
