2018 Ford Transit

Ford Transit gains new enhancements across the lineup for 2018 that are designed to make the vehicle trusted by fleets, small business customers and families more capable than ever.

Available in three lengths, three heights and two wheelbases, the 2018 Ford Transit offers 64 configurations across four basic platforms: van, passenger wagon, cutaway and chassis cab.

An available forged alloy dual rear wheel package is new for van and passenger wagon models, along with a new Stone Gray exterior and charcoal leather-trimmed seat package. A heavy-duty cargo flooring option has been added along with an available heavy-duty rear scuff plate kit and rear-door scuff plate kit for Transit cargo van.

New driver features include a high-mount location for the rearview camera on medium- and high-roof models, and available power-folding short-arm heated mirrors with turn signals.

The 3.7-liter Ti-VCT V6 engine -- standard for Transit van and passenger wagon -- is engineered for optimal performance. A CNG/propane gaseous engine prep package is available.

The available 3.2-liter Power Stroke five-cylinder turbodiesel features advanced fuel, turbo and emissions systems that meet stringent U.S. clean diesel standards.

For maximum capability, the available 3.5-liter EcoBoost is a trusted workhorse. Whether carrying materials to a job site or towing a trailer, EcoBoost-equipped Transit provides maximum gasoline engine torque of 400 lb.-ft.

Each engine is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission with SelectShift for efficient rear-wheel-drive operation.

Thanks to a power rack-and-pinion setup, Transit provides drivers with an exceptionally communicative steering feel. The front suspension consists of subframe-mounted MacPherson struts and a stabilizer bar for smoother, flatter cornering, while progressive rear leaf springs and heavy-duty gas-charged dampers provide for well-controlled ride quality.
