The Transit Cargo Van is built with lightweight yet strong unibody construction. Front, rear and side rails are welded with the floor pan, crossmembers and torque boxes to form a single body. Unibody construction, while lighter in weight than body-on-frame, yields tremendous strength and durability. It's built with high-strength steel as well as boron steel in select areas.
Severe-duty applications like courier and transport duty call for an engine to run many hours a day under constant idling and stop-and-go conditions. The answer: the available direct-injected 3.2L Power Stroke® I-5 Turbo Diesel that puts out 185 horsepower and 350 lb.-ft. of torque. This B20 biodiesel-capable Transit engine option is designed to help give you the right balance of power and performance, plus proven Ford diesel ruggedness and dependability.
With direct injection and turbocharging, this engine generates 310 horsepower with a best-in-class maximum gas torque rating of 400 lb.-ft.* Direct injection (DI) delivers a precise, fine mist of fuel directly into each cylinder, unlike conventional port fuel injection that sprays into the intake system. DI is designed to extract as much power as possible from every drop of fuel. Turbochargers kick in on demand to provide a surge of responsive power when needed. The 3.5L EcoBoost V6 uses two small turbochargers that spool up to their operating speeds quickly. The turbochargers and direct injection combine to produce impressive torque output early in the rpm range.
*Class is Full-Size Vans based on Ford segmentation, excluding other Ford vehicles.
The standard 3.7L V6 delivers responsive performance with 275 horsepower and 260 lb.-ft. of torque. Intake and exhaust valves typically have to open and close at fixed points, compromising performance. But Ti-VCT virtually eliminates this compromise. With its variable control of valve cam timing, Ti-VCT can optimize performance across the entire range of the power band to match the driving condition of the moment. With the 3.7L engine, Ford offers an available CNG/Propane Gaseous Engine Prep Package* for power conversion to compressed natural gas (CNG) or propane autogas.
*See dealer for details.
Every Transit engine gets a 6-speed SelectShift® transmission designed for low-end acceleration and high-end productivity.
