Although Ford presents the 2024 E-Transit with just one trim package, it’s built in several available configurations: low, medium, and high roof heights and long or extended body length. A single electric motor with an 89-kWh battery propels the rear wheels with up to 266 horsepower and 317 lb.-ft. of torque. The cargo capacity varies by configuration but can reach up to 3,858 pounds.
With a Level 2/240-volt charger, an E-Transit’s battery requires 8 to 12 hours to charge from 15% to 100% (depending on amperage). This translates into 10 to 15 miles per hour of charging. Level 3/DC fast charging can top off the battery from 10% to 80% in about 40 minutes or at a rate of 45 miles per 15 minutes.
With a maximum estimated range of 159 miles, an E-Transit Low Roof can travel the furthest on a single full charge. That will change to 148 miles for the Medium Roof and 143 for the High Roof.
The 2024 Ford E-Transit is focused on the job at hand. Its core features include dual vinyl-covered front bucket seats, single-zone climate control, remote keyless entry, power side mirrors, automatic headlights, a tilt-and-telescopic steering column, a pair of USB ports, and 16-inch steel wheels with covers.
An expansive options list helps business owners outfit the E-Transit for their needs. Pro Power On Board turns the E-Transit into a mobile power source for electric tools, electronics, or accessories and includes proximity keyless entry with push-button start. The long list of exterior upgrades includes enhanced mirrors, all-around windows, running boards, fog lights, a keyless entry keypad, privacy glass, and halogen headlights. Among the many interior options are a bulkhead partition (Medium Roof and High Roof), heavy-duty cargo flooring, full rear compartment lighting, and numerous cargo-handling accessories.
The E-Transit comes standard with forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane departure warning. Upgrades include blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, a surround-view monitor, active park assist (semi-autonomous parking support), a backup alarm, and front and rear parking sensors. There are also head and side airbags for both front-seat occupants, as well as anti-lock brakes, stability control, traction control, and tire pressure monitoring.
Ford’s SYNC 4 system provides infotainment features for the E-Transit’s. It’s built around a 12-inch touchscreen supported by a four-speaker audio system, three years of Connected Navigation access, Bluetooth, and Alexa Built-In. SiriusXM satellite radio is available.
Ford Pro Telematics Essentials is also standard with the 2024 E-Transit and provides remote monitoring of repair codes, odometer information, maintenance notices, and fleet management details. Remote locking and unlocking via this technology is available. Ford Pro E-Telematics is an available expanded service that provides enhanced remote services, such as driver activity monitoring, GPS tracking, service reports, and security alerts. This subscription includes range data, charge status, and departure preconditioning.
