The all-new Transit Courier introduces a 125 PS variant of Ford’s efficient 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine, offered alongside the 100 PS version of the same engine, which has been optimised to produce less CO2 and improve fuel efficiency in comparison to previous models.
The EcoBoost powertrain is paired with a six-speed manual gearbox, or a new seven-speed dual clutch transmission to support customers who often drive in stop-start traffic. The system’s twin gearsets enable smooth, fast gearshifts with no loss of torque to improve low-speed efficiencyand the driving experience.
A 100 PS 1.5-litre EcoBlue diesel engine is available for customers with higher-mileage use cases. The engine is available on the Transit Courier van and double-cab-in-van models, and teamed with a six-speed manual transmission.
Transit Courier’s high level of built-in technology is headlined by a “digiboard” instrument panel containing a digital instrument cluster and eight-inch centre touchscreen with Ford’s latest SYNC 4 connectivity system.Subscription-based Connected Navigation can boost productivity and reduce driver workload with updates on traffic, parking and local hazards. Wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility is standard.
Bold exterior design
makes Transit Courier a desirable, eye-catching billboard for operators’
businesses. Inside, the all-new load area and cabin design include customer-led
features to boost productivity and comfort while at work. A comprehensive array
of driver assistance technologies has also made Transit Courier the first van
to receive a platinum safety award from Euro NCAP according to their most
recent testing standards.

Courier is fully integrated with Ford Pro’s platform of software
and connected services to drive efficient operation, whether for
owner-operators or large fleets – including uptime-boosting Ford Pro Software management
tools and Ford Pro Service to reduce cost of ownership.
