The current model generation of the Ford Transit is a real workhorse and demonstrates this with its impressive load capacity and versatility. Under the hood, there is a choice of various diesel and even petrol engines. One advantage is the optional automatic gearbox and the spacious interior. Ford also offers a version with all-wheel drive. The weak point, however, is the comparatively high susceptibility to theft due to the popularity of the model.

The first generation of the Ford Transit laid the foundation for the success of this commercial vehicle.

A special feature was its durability. Its weaknesses included high fuel consumption and poor noise insulation. From its beginnings to the present day, the Ford Transit has undergone a remarkable development, from a simple commercial vehicle to a versatile and technologically mature van. The distinctive shape and robust design have made the Transit an iconic representative of its class and the choice of engines and exterior variants ensures that there is a version to suit every need. Each generation has its own strengths and weaknesses, but the Transit has never lost its fundamental role as a reliable and efficient companion.
