The van will be offered in L1 and L2 body lengths with panel van, double cab and Kombi interior layouts, as well as the plush Ford E-Tourneo passenger model. Four trim levels will be offered – Trend, Limited, Sport and MS-RT.
Prices and full UK specifications will be announced closer to the Ford E-Transit’s UK launch in late 2024.
