The '''Ford Transit''' is a family of [[light commercial vehicle]]s manufactured by the [[Ford Motor Company]] since 1965, primarily as a [[panel van|cargo van]], but also available in other configurations including a large passenger van (marketed as the '''Ford Tourneo''' in some markets since 1995), [[cutaway van chassis]], and a [[pickup truck]]. The vehicle is also known as the '''Ford T-Series''' (T-150, T-250, T-350), a nomenclature shared with Ford's other light commercial vehicles, the [[Ford F-Series]] trucks, and the [[Ford E-Series]] chassis. {{As of|2015}}, 8 million Transit vans have been sold, making it the third best-selling van of all time<ref>{{cite web |title=Top 20 best-selling vans of all time |url=http://parkers.co.uk/vans/news-and-advice/2015/august/top-20-best-selling-vans-of-all-time/ |work=Parkers Van News |publisher=Bauer Media |access-date=August 12, 2015}}</ref> and has been produced across four basic platform generations (debuting in 1965, 1986, 2000, and 2013 respectively), with various "facelift" versions of each.

The first product of the merged [[Ford of Europe]], the Transit was originally marketed in Western Europe and Australia. By the end of the twentieth century, it was marketed nearly globally with the exception of North America until 2015 when it replaced the [[Ford E-Series]] van. Upon its introduction in North America, the Transit quickly became the best-selling van of any type in the United States, minivan sales included.<ref>{{cite web |last=Cain |first=Timothy |date=April 29, 2016 |url=http://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2016/04/ford-transit-americas-best-selling-van-minivans-included/ |title=Ford Transit Is America's Best-Selling Van, Minivans Included |work=[[The Truth About Cars]] |access-date=May 1, 2016}}</ref>

That mirrors the success the Transit has achieved in Europe, where it has been the best-selling light commercial vehicle for forty years, and in some countries the term "Transit" has passed into common usage as a [[generic trademark]] applying to any light commercial van in the Transit's size bracket.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/transit |title=Meaning of "transit" in the English Dictionary |website=Cambridge Dictionaries Online |publisher=[[Cambridge University Press]] |access-date=May 27, 2016}}</ref><ref name="topgear"/>

[[File:Ford Taunus Transit 1964 2.JPG|thumb|left|Ford Taunus Transit]]
Predecessor of the British and German-built Transit, the first production Ford to wear the "Transit" badge was a van built in Ford's [[Cologne]] plant in Germany. It was introduced in 1953 as '''FK 1000''' (carrying 1,000&nbsp;kg) with the 1.2-litre [[Ford sidevalve engine]] from the contemporary Taunus. In 1955 the engine capacity was enlarged to 1.5 litres. From 1961, this vehicle was called the '''Ford Taunus Transit'''. Production of this model ceased in 1965.

=== Brief historical view ===

On May 9, 1945, the day after the [[unconditional surrender]] of the [[German Wehrmacht]] in the [[Second World War]], production at [[Ford Germany]] in [[Cologne]] resumed. Because the production of civilian cars in the British [[occupied zone]] was restricted, Ford-Werke AG was limited to the production of trucks until 1948.<ref name=ergebnisse>{{citation | url = https://www.nonstopsystems.com/radio/pdf-hell/article-hell-wages-frd-ww2.pdf | title = Ergebnisse der Untersuchungen über die Ford-Werke unter dem Nationalsozialismus | trans-title = Results of the investigations into the Ford works under National Socialism | language = de | pages = 10–11 | publisher = Ford Motor Company Archives }}</ref> Those trucks based on the slightly modified war models V 3000 S, B 3000 S and V 3000 A as they were already produced before and during the Second World War in the Ford production facilities in the [[Third Reich]]. Those trucks were now called "Rhein" (V8-engined) and "Ruhr" (four-cylinder).

At that time neither Ford of Britain nor Ford Werke AG were 100% subsidiaries of [[Ford Motor Company]] in [[Detroit]]; before the Second World War each company had its own more or less protected market. After the war, several economical boundaries were abolished and local markets did not exist anymore in the same way that they existed before. With this, Ford of Britain and Ford-Werke AG suddenly became more competitive on the whole European Continent than local market subsidiaries of their parent company in Detroit.

Production of light commercial vehicles began in late 1948, when 148 half-ton delivery vehicles were built.<ref name=ergebnisse/> In 1951 Ford Werke AG launched the commercial vehicle series '''FK''', standing for Ford Köln, with different-sized vehicles (FK2000 with 2 tons payload, FK3000 with 3 tons payload, FK3500 with 3.5 tons payload, etc.). The FK series was successor of the "Rhein" and "Ruhr" trucks. In 1953, the FK series were rounded off with the light delivery van FK1000/FK1250 (1ton/1.25tons payload), in competition to the [[Volkswagen]] Type 2 [[VW Type 2|VW Bus]], the [[DKW]] Type [[DKW Schnellaster|F89L ''Schnellaster'']] or the [[Tempo (automobile)|Tempo Matador]].

As usual in the [[Anglo-Saxon countries]] in those days, Ford's marketing experts attached more importance to the model/series designation than to the "Ford" label as a brand.{{citation needed|date=June 2021}} Most British Ford products carried no Ford emblem. The commercial vehicles produced at Ford-Werke AG were marketed with the FK logo, while the passenger cars produced from 1948 onwards were offered under the name Taunus referring to the re-produced pre-war model [[Ford Taunus G93A]].

Due to continental European habits, the original series and model designations "FK" and Taunus mutated into real brands, each with its own emblem and different models, comparable with [[Daimler Benz]] [[Mercedes-Benz|Mercedes]] models or [[General Motors]] [[Opel]] models. The FK emblem consists of two slightly overlapping ovals with the "F" from the well-known Ford emblem in the first and a "K" in the same font in the second oval. The Taunus emblem first depicted the [[Cologne Cathedral]]; from 1953 on until its discontinuation in 1967, Cologne's city flag inspired the Taunus emblem.

In 1961, Ford discontinued the entire truck production in Germany and took the FK brand off the market, due to serious defects and therefore strongly decreasing demand.{{citation needed|date=June 2021}} The unrelated FK1000/FK1250 van, unaffected by these defects, continued to sell well and was now offered under the successful Taunus brand with the model name Transit in addition to the cars [[Ford Taunus P1|Taunus 12M/15M]] and the [[Ford Taunus P3|Taunus 17M]]. A comparable program to Volkswagen, that offered its vehicles [[VW Beetle]], [[VW Type 3|VW 1500]] and [[VW Type 2|VW Bus]] the same way on the continental European market. The "new" Transit Taunus van was now labelled with the Transit model name (instead of the FK logo) in big chrome letters and a big "Taunus" emblem as well as a small Taunus lettering which was also mounted on the back of the vehicle. New, however, was a small Ford logo underneath the right B-pillar.

From 1957 onwards, with the launch of the [[Ford Thames 400E]] by Ford of Britain, the situation arose that Ford, together with the FK1000/FK1250 by Ford Werke AG, was now present on the continental European markets with two competing products. For example, the British Ford Thames 400E was also assembled and improved as a left-hand drive version in the Ford assembly plants in [[Copenhagen]], Denmark, as well as the German FK1000 was assembled in [[Azambuja]], Portugal, too. In the French, Spanish, Italian, Swiss, [[Benelux]] and Scandinavian markets, both products were found. This turned out to be disadvantageous and cost-intensive especially after the fall of various trade barriers within the newly founded [[EEC]].

For this reason, such a situation with internal competition and parallel developments was very unsatisfactory for the Ford headquarters in Detroit. The aim was to not only standardize the vehicle production ([[world car]]), but also merge the company structures in Europe.
Under parent's dictate, Ford of Britain and Ford-Werke AG started the "Redcap-Project" in the commercial vehicle sector in 1963, from which the Ford Transit was launched in 1965, based on a new unified [[Car platform|platform]].

Two years later in 1967, Ford of Britain and Ford-Werke AG merged to [[Ford of Europe]] with the headquarters in [[Cologne]], Germany. The brand Taunus was taken off the market. Ford forced the standardization of platforms and even model-names overall European market under the Ford brand and logo. After the Ford Transit in 1965, a second unified platform ([[Ford Escort (Europe)|Ford Escort]]) was launched in 1967. With the discontinuation of the [[Ford Zephyr]] (British) and [[Ford P7]] (German) in 1972 all Ford platforms for the European market are unified. Since 1994 (discontinuation of the [[Ford Scorpio|Ford Granada name]]) even the Ford model-names are the same for the European market.

=== Naming system ===
The German vehicle was not widely exported, and the "Mark 1" tag has commonly been applied, retrospectively, to the 1965 to 1978 pan-European model (see below). Whilst there have only been four basic platforms since 1965, the various facelifts and upgrades over the years have been referred to using a conflicting range of "Mark" numbers, with some sources counting a facelift as a new "Mark", some not. Ford's own historical look back at Transit production, published for the launch of the 1994 model, avoids the issue by referring to generations of Transit by years produced.<ref>"Van World" marketing periodical; in article "1965–1995: 30 years and 3,000,000 Transits later"; pub. Ford Motor Company Ltd., Brentwood, UK; Autumn 1994.</ref> This article attempts to make mention of all the common naming systems.

This generation had the longest production run of any Transit to date, staying largely unaltered for 12 years until the major update of 1977, with only one minor facelift for the 1971 model year, which saw updated front end styling on the V4 engined models (the 'pig snout' diesel/V6 models remained unchanged), and the introduction of a safety padded dashboard.

Overall production of this platform therefore lasted for over 20 years before finally being replaced by the all-new VE6 platform in 1986.

The van was produced initially at Ford's [[Langley, Slough|Langley]] facility in Berkshire, England (a former Second World War aircraft factory which had produced [[Hawker Hurricane]] fighters), but demand outstripped the capability of the plant, and production was moved to [[Ford Southampton plant|Southampton]] until closure in 2013 in favour of the factory at [[İzmit]], Turkey.<ref name=BBC23432322>{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-hampshire-23432322 |title=Last shift at Ford's Transit van factory in Swaythling |publisher=BBC |date=July 26, 2013 |access-date=July 26, 2013}}</ref>

Transits were also produced in Ford's [[Genk Body & Assembly|Genk]] factory in Belgium and also Turkey. Transits were produced in Amsterdam for the local market from the mid-1970s until the end of 1981. This factory had ample capacity, since the [[Ford Transcontinental]] produced there had little success (total production 8000 in 6 years). Although the Transit sold well in the Netherlands, it was not enough to save the factory, which closed in December 1981.

The Transit was introduced to replace the [[Ford Thames 400E]], a small mid-engined [[forward control]] van noted for its narrow track which was in competition with similar-looking but larger vehicles from the [[Morris Commercial J4|BMC J4]] and [[Morris Commercial J2|J2]] vans and [[Rootes Group]]'s [[Commer]] PB ranges. In a UK market segment then dominated by the [[Bedford CA]], Ford's Thames competitor, because of its restricted load area, failed to attract fleet users in sufficient numbers. Ford switched to a front-engined configuration, as did Bedford with their well-regarded CA series vans in the 1950s. [[Henry Ford II]]'s revolutionary step was to combine the engineering efforts of [[Ford of Britain]] and Ford of Germany to create a prototype for the Ford of Europe of today—previously the two subsidiaries had avoided competing in one another's domestic markets but had been direct competitors in other European markets.

The Transit was a departure from the European commercial vehicles of the day with its American-inspired styling—its broad track gave it a huge advantage in carrying capacity over comparable vehicles of the day. Most of the Transit's mechanical components were adapted from Ford's car range of the time. Another key to the Transit's success was the sheer number of different body styles: panel vans in long and short wheelbase forms, pick-up truck, minibuses, crew-cabs to name but a few.

The engines used in the UK were the [[Ford Essex V4 engine|Essex V4]] for the [[petrol]]-engined version in 1.7&nbsp;L and 2.0&nbsp;L capacities. By using relatively short V-4 engines Ford were able to minimise the additional length necessitated to place the engine ahead of the driver.<ref name=Autocar196804>{{Cite journal |journal=Autocar |volume=128 |issue=3766) |editor=Maurice A Smith  |title=The Ford Light Commercials |page=105 |date=April 18, 1968}}</ref> Another popular development under the bonnet was the equipping of the van with an [[Alternator (auto)|alternator]] at time when the UK market competitors expected buyers to be content with a [[dynamo]].<ref name=Autocar196804/> A {{convert|43|bhp|kW|0|abbr=on}} [[diesel engine]] sourced from [[Perkins Engines|Perkins]] was also offered. As this engine was too long to fit under the Transit's stubby nose, the diesel version featured a longer bonnet - which became nicknamed as the "pig snout". The underpowered Perkins proved unpopular, and was replaced by Ford's own [[Ford York engine|York]] unit in 1972. For mainland Europe the Transit had the German [[Ford Taunus V4 engine]] in Cologne 1.3, 1.5, and 1.7- or Essex 2.0-litre versions. The diesel version's long nose front was also used to accommodate the Ford 3.0 L [[Ford Essex V6 engine (UK)]] for high performance applications such as vans supplied to police and ambulance services. In Australia, in 1973, to supplement the two Essex V4 engines that were available the Transit was released with the long-nose diesel front used to accommodate an [[Straight-six engine|inline 6-cylinder]] engine derived from the [[Ford Falcon (Australia)|Ford Falcon]].

The [[Metropolitan Police]] reported on this vehicle in 1972 via a [[Scotland Yard]] spokesman that "Ford Transits are used in 95 per cent of [[Bank robbery|bank raids]]. With the performance of a car, and space for 1.75 tonnes of loot, the Transit is proving to be the perfect getaway vehicle", describing it as "Britain's most wanted van".<ref name="topgear">{{cite episode |title=Series 06, Episode 07 |series=Top Gear |series-link=Top Gear (2002 TV series) |network=BBC |airdate=July 10, 2005 |series-no=6 |number=7}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://media.ford.com/content/dam/fordmedia/Europe/gb/2015/07/Transit%2050%20Wonderful%20Facts%204.pdf|title=Ford Transit: 50 Wonderful Facts|date=July 2015|website=Ford Motor Company|access-date=August 19, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.topgear.com/car-news/british/ford-transit-50-today-so-we-drove-oldest-surviving-example|title=The Ford Transit is 50 today, so we drove the oldest surviving example|date=October 9, 2015|website=Top Gear|language=en|access-date=August 19, 2017}}</ref>

The adoption of a front beam axle in place of a system incorporating independent front suspension that had featured on its [[Ford Thames 400E|UK predecessor]] might have been seen as a backward step by some, but on the road commentators felt that the Transit's wider track and longer wheelbase more than compensated for the apparent step backwards represented by Ford's suspension choices.<ref name=Autocar196804/> Drivers appreciated the elimination of the excessive noise, smell and cabin heat that resulted from placing the driver above or adjacent to the engine compartment in the Thames 400E and other forward control light vans of the 1950s and early 1960s.<ref name=Autocar196804/>

The Transit was also assembled in South Africa between 1967 and 1974, the last Transit to be sold in that country until 2013, when a fully imported model was introduced.<ref name="Wheels24">[http://www.wheels24.co.za/News/Ford-Transit-Long-wait-worth-it-20130424 Ford Transit: Long wait worth it], [[News24 (website)|Wheels24]], April 25, 2013</ref>

[[File:1978 Ford Transit van, ice cream van conversion (22381174286).jpg|thumb|left| Ford Transit [[Ice cream van]] with the restyled longer bonnet]]

In August 1977, a facelifted version—codenamed within Ford as the "Transit {{frac|1978|1|2}}"—but usually referred to as the '''Transit Mark II''',<ref name="mk_1"/> debuted with a restyled, longer nose section which could now properly accommodate an in-line engine in place of the Essex and Cologne V4s - therefore the [[Ford Pinto engine|Pinto]] engine from the [[Ford Cortina|Cortina]] became the Transit's dominant power unit. The new frontal styling brought the Transit back into line with the rest of Ford of Europe's passenger car range of the period with square headlamps and the black louvred grille, although the rear styling remained unaltered. The austere dashboard of the Mk1 with its single instrument binnacle was replaced with a full width plastic fascia with a more comprehensive instrument cluster and switchgear taken from the Taunus/Cortina Mk4. Many fleet owners experienced premature camshaft wear in early Pinto units in the Cortina and for two years the Transit 75 was available with the 1.6&nbsp;L Ford Kent cross-flow engine. High-performance versions intended for police or ambulance service used the 3.0&nbsp;L [[V6]] version of the [[Ford Essex V6 engine (UK)|Essex engine]]; the {{cvt|100|hp|kW PS|0|adj=on}} 3.0 was also available in some heavier duty models like the 3.5-tonne Transit 190.<ref name="inufa82">{{citation | ref = INK82 | title = Internationaler Nutzfahrzeug-Katalog (Inufa) 1982 | trans-title = International Commercial Vehicle Catalog | language = de | volume = 24 | location = Solothurn, Switzerland | publisher = Vogt-Schild AG |year = 1982 | page = 77 | editor-first = Hans U. | editor-last = Rohrbach }}</ref> From September 1978, Australian variants could be had with locally built 4.1&nbsp;L (250&nbsp;cu in) [[Straight-six engine|inline 6-cylinder]] engines.

In 1984, the York diesel engine was redesigned into the 2.5&nbsp;L "DI" (direct injection) unit. At this time this generation received a minor facelift including a grey plastic front grille with integrated headlamp surrounds, wraparound indicators, longer bumper end caps and multifunction rear lights incorporating fog, indicator, reversing and side lights for the panel van. This facelift did not commonly result in a new "Mark" number.

The Mark II was available in 6 body styles: Van, Kombi, Chassis Cab, Parcel Van, Bus, and Crewbus all available in short-wheelbase (2690&nbsp;mm) and long-wheelbase (3000&nbsp;mm) versions. A selection of 5 engines was available: 1.6-litre OHC Petrol, 1.6-litre OHV Petrol (Kent), 2.0-litre OHC Petrol, 2.0-litre OHC Petrol (Economy) and 2.4-litre Diesel. On top of this were 32 door combinations, 6 axle ratios and options for 12 – 17 interior seats. All of these were available in any combination when purchased with Ford's highly customizable custom plan. At the time this gave the business sector an unprecedented amount of flexibility, which was a major factor in the vehicles' ultimate success.<ref>"The New Ford Transit – Confidential for Ford Salesmen Only (Mark II)."{{Clarify|reason=Clarify reference using Citation Style 1 templates|date=September 2012}}</ref>

In 1981, for mainland European market only, the Transit Clubmobil was introduced by the Hymer company. This was fitted with a 1.6 / 2.0 OHC engine, and featured a custom interior – captain style swivel seats in velour, pile carpet, motorsport steering wheel, unique Ronal 14" alloy wheels, unique side windows, folding back seat, luggage box, unique front spoiler, tinted glass, power assisted steering, spare wheel carrier and rear door ladder. In 3 years of production 150 were produced and less than 20 are thought to still exist.

In late 1982, the well-equipped Transit Ghia was introduced to some markets, only as a nine-seater bus. This offered a velour interior, full carpeting, tinted windows, and sunroof. Externally it can be identified by chrome dog-dish hubcaps and extra lamps in the grille.<ref name=TV218255>{{cite magazine | title = Lyxbuss | trans-title = Luxury bus | ref = TVn21 | language = sv | magazine = [[Teknikens Värld]] | publisher = Specialtidningsförlaget AB | location = Stockholm, Sweden | page = 55 | date = October 6, 1982 | issue = 21 | volume = 34 | editor-first = Börje | editor-last = Isakson }}</ref>

In 1982, a four-wheel drive version was added to the German market, called the SIRA-Ford Transit. This was developed together with Rau GmbH, a Ford dealer in [[Stuttgart]].<ref name="Truck9.82">{{ cite journal | journal = TRUCK | date = September 1982 | ref = truck982 | page = 25 | editor-last = Kennett | editor-first = Pat | title = Intertruck: Germany | last = Kacher | first = Georg | location = London, UK | publisher = FF Publishing Ltd }}</ref> "SIRA" combines "[[Sinpar]]" and "Rau" because Rau was the agent for French four-wheel-drive specialist Sinpar in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

Codenamed ''VE6'', the second generation Transit platform appeared in January 1986 and was notable for its all-new bodyshell which was of "one-box" design (''i.e.'' the windscreen and bonnet are at close to the same angle), and the front suspension was changed to a fully independent configuration on SWB versions. Initially fitted with Chubb AVA locks, Tibbe barrels were fitted soon after. The engine range was carried over largely unchanged from the last of the 1978–1985 Mk.1 facelift model, although in 1989 the high-performance 3.0 Essex [[V6]] petrol was replaced by the Cologne 2.9 EFI V6, mainly because of emissions regulations as the Essex V6 design was nearly 25 years old by then and still used a carburettor. The third generation Transit was developed under the "Triton" code name.<ref>{{ cite journal | journal = TRUCK | date = September 1982 | ref = truck982 | page = 37 | editor-last = Kennett | editor-first = Pat | title = The Great European Retreat | first = Alan | last = Walker | location = London, UK | publisher = FF Publishing Ltd }}</ref>

=== Facelift (1992) ===
A subtle facelift in 1992 saw the fully independent front suspension adopted across the range, whilst a redesigned floor plan allowed the use of single, rather than paired, rear wheels on the LWB derivative, further increasing payload—these models are identifiable by the slightly more rounded front headlamps. In Australia, the third generation Transit did not go on sale until March 1994, after a 13-year absence from that market.

[[File:Ford transit 6 v sst.jpg|thumb|left|1994–2000 (in Europe) Ford Transit (second facelift)]]

A major facelift to the Transit in 1994 gave the Transit a new nose and [[dashboard]], along with the [[Ford I4 DOHC engine|2.0&nbsp;L DOHC 8-valve]] engine as found in the 1994 to 1998 Ford Scorpio. It is similar to the earlier Sierra DOHC unit but without the distributor and uses the updated [[OBD II]]-compliant EEC-V level [[engine control unit]]. At the same time [[air conditioning]], electric windows, central locking, electric mirrors and airbags were all made available as optional extras.

In 1994, a [[campervan]] conversion produced by [[Auto-Sleepers]] converted in [[Willersey]], [[Gloucestershire]], known as the '''Auto-Sleepers Duetto''' was available. It was available with the high-top roof.<ref>{{cite web |title=Used 'van buyer - Auto-Sleepers Duetto (1994-2000) |url=https://www.practicalmotorhome.com/advice/used-van-buyer-auto-sleeper-duetto-1994-2000 |website=Practical Motorhome |date=August 10, 2015 |access-date=May 26, 2022}}</ref>

The naturally aspirated diesel engines came in {{convert|70|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{convert|76|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} variants.The turbo diesel version came in {{convert|85|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} or {{convert|100|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} variants, and in 1998 a {{convert|115|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} intercooled version became available; all turbodiesels had an electronic fuel injection pump made by Lucas.

For the 30th anniversary of the Transit in 1995 Ford released a limited edition model called the Transit Hallmark. Six hundred were made and were available in three colours with 200 being made in each.

In Europe the VE83 Transit was available up to 2000, but in Vietnam it was built up to 2003 when it was exchanged in June for the new generation.<ref name="Ford: Facilities"/>

Developed by Ford in the United States, the main innovation is that it is available in either front- or rear-wheel drive. Ford nomenclature makes this the V184 ([[rear-wheel-drive]]) or V185 ([[front-wheel-drive]]) model. This model features the "Puma"-type [[Ford Duratorq|Duratorq]] turbo diesel engine also used in the 2000 [[Ford Mondeo|Mondeo]] and [[Jaguar X-Type]], with the petrol versions moving up to the 2.3&nbsp;L 16-Valve edition of the [[straight-4]] engine.

A demonstration of this model's speed with the smallest panel van body, rear wheel drive, highest output 136PS 2.4 Duratorq turbo-diesel engine and optional 6-speed manual gearbox was shown in [[Top Gear (series 6)|series 6]] of ''[[Top Gear (2002 TV series)|Top Gear]]'' in 2005, where German race driver [[Sabine Schmitz]] attempted to drive it around the [[Nürburgring]] in under ten minutes, matching [[Jeremy Clarkson]]'s time in a turbodiesel [[Jaguar S-Type (1999)|Jaguar S-Type]]; after weight reduction and aerodynamic modifications, she was only just unsuccessful, marking her fastest lap at 10m 8s.

This version won the [[International Van of the Year]] 2001.

[[File:Ford Transit rear 20071231.jpg|left|thumbnail|Ford Transit pre-facelift]]

The [[Durashift]] EST [[automatic transmission]] (optional on all rear-wheel-drive models) features controls mounted on the dashboard, a specially adapted manual mode, tow-haul mode, economy mode and winter mode. This is known as the ASM (automatically shifting manual) system in the Australian market.

2002 saw the introduction of the first [[Common rail|High Pressure Common Rail]] diesel engine in the Transit, with the launch of the {{convert|125|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} HPCR 2.0-litre in the FWD. Production of the van started at the new Ford-Otosan plant in Kocaeli, Turkey which saw the end of all production at the Genk, Belgium plant which had been producing Transits since 1965. This coincided with the introduction of the [[Ford Transit Connect|Transit Connect]] (also produced in Kocaeli), a smaller panel van based on the [[Ford C170 platform|C170]] (Focus) platform and aimed at replacing the older [[Ford Escort (Europe)|Escort]] and [[Ford Courier#Europe (1991–2002)|Fiesta]] based models. Despite the name, the Connect has no engineering commonality with the full-size Transit.

2003 saw a new instrument cluster with a digital odometer.

2004 saw the launch of the first RWD HPCR, the {{convert|135|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} 2.4-litre variant that also introduced the 6-speed MT-82 RWD [[manual gearbox]].

The five millionth Transit rolled off the Southampton line on Monday, July 18, 2005, and was donated to an English charity.

=== Facelift (2006)<span class="anchor" id="2006"></span> ===

[[File:Ford Transit VI 110 T300 20090910 rear.JPG|thumb|left|Ford Transit (facelift)]]

The third-generation Transit received a facelift to the body, introduced in July 2006, including new front and rear lights, a new front end and a new interior featuring the [[gearstick]] on the dashboard and Ford's new corporate radio design. Besides the styling changes, the powertrains were revised. The old petrol engine was replaced with one from the [[Ford Ranger]], the front-wheel-drive diesel went from 2.0 to 2.2 litres capacity, and all diesel engines gained high-pressure common rail ([[TDCi]]) systems. The powertrains were changed to meet new emissions legislation. Additionally, the facelift introduced [[CAN bus]] electronics to the Transit for the first time. The new version (Ford nomenclature V347 for front-wheel drive and V348 for rear-wheel drive) won [[International Van of the Year]] for 2007 despite tough competition from several all-new rivals. This Transit arrived in Mexico to replace the [[Ford Freestar|Freestar]] after the 2007 model year. This was the first Transit with a [[Straight-five engine|five-cylinder engine]] available (in the 3.2L 200PS version).

Mid-2006 saw the launch of the "Sport Van", a production van featuring the {{convert|130|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} engine with additional styling parts, "Le Mans" stripes and 18-inch alloy wheels.

Late-2007 saw the launch of the {{convert|140|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} engine for front-wheel-drives (replacing the 130 PS) complete with the VMT6 6-speed [[Manual transmission|manual]] transaxle to cope with the extra power.

The 6-speed transaxle was introduced on the mid-power FWD in late 2008 when the {{convert|110|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}} engine was upped to {{convert|115|PS|kW|0|abbr=on}}.

In late 2008, the "coated Diesel Particulate Filter" (cDPF)—designed to meet higher emission standards than the current Euro IV requirement—was introduced as an option on all diesel engines. Production ended in 2013, with the Southampton plant closing down making this generation the last of the British built Transits, but returned in China in two modified forms.

The fourth-generation Transit was launched in January 2013 at the [[North American International Auto Show#2013|2013 North American (Detroit) International Auto Show]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.freep.com/article/20130117/BUSINESS03/301170102/2014-Ford-Transit|title=2015 Ford Transit|work=Detroit Free Press|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130619145253/http://www.freep.com/article/20130117/BUSINESS03/301170102/2014-Ford-Transit|archive-date=June 19, 2013|access-date=January 17, 2013}}</ref> In contrast to the previous generation developed in the United States (but never sold there), the fourth-generation Transit was co-designed by [[Ford of Europe]] and Ford in North America. After entering production for worldwide sale in 2013, the Transit entered sale in North America in 2014 as an early 2015 model.
[[File:2014 Ford Transit (VO) 350E van (2015-06-03) 02.jpg|thumb|left|2014 Ford Transit 350E cargo van (Australia), rear view]]

The fourth-generation Transit was the first version to be offered for sale in the United States and Canada, replacing the E-Series passenger cargo and passenger van (the E-Series remains in production as a cutaway/chassis cab).  While produced since 1965 (nearly as long as the Mustang), previous generations of the Transit were excluded from North America to avoid model overlap with the Econoline/E-Series.

The introduction of the fourth generation saw a transition of the Transit nameplate into a commercially oriented sub-brand of Ford.  To supplement its namesake vehicle and the Transit Connect MPV, Ford spun off the previous front-wheel drive Transit into its own model line, the Transit Custom (sized between the [[Ford Transit Connect|Transit Connect]] and Transit), with the Fiesta-based [[Ford Transit Courier|Transit Courier]] introduced in 2014 as the smallest model of the product range. The namesake of the model line, the fourth-generation Transit is marketed against the [[Chevrolet Express|Chevrolet Express/GMC Savana]], [[Mercedes-Benz Sprinter]], [[Fiat Ducato]] (and its variants), and the [[Volkswagen Crafter]] in markets worldwide.       {{clear|left}}

=== Chassis ===
[[File:Ride On Flex Bus 1006D.jpg|left|thumb|[[Public transportation|Public transit]] minibus (based on 350 HD [[Cutaway van chassis|cutaway]] with factory Shuttle Bus Prep Package w/ passenger door delete)]]

[[File:Ford Transit 350 HD School Bus by Trans Tech 5.17.18.jpg|left|thumb|Ford Transit 350HD with [[School bus#Types|type-A]] school bus body]]

The fourth-generation Transit is offered in a rear-wheel drive powertrain layout; the front-wheel drive version of the previous generation has been replaced by the Transit Custom.  The Transit van is offered in two wheelbases (129.9 inches and 147.6 inches<ref name=":4">{{Cite web|title=2019 Ford Transit Cargo Van {{!}} Model Highlights {{!}} Models & Specifications {{!}} Specifications|url=https://www.ford.com/commercial-trucks/transit-cargo-van/2019/models/transit-van/|archive-url=|archive-date=|access-date=|website=Ford.com}}</ref>) while the chassis cab/cutaway van is offered in three wheelbases (138 inches, 155.7, and 178 inches).  As with previous-generation vans, extended-wheelbase vans were produced with either single or dual rear-wheel axles.

In a major change from the E-Series, the Transit uses a unibody chassis design instead of a separate frame; while no longer using a separate chassis, the high use of [[boron steel]] allowed for increase in payload capacity of up to 600 pounds (over a similar-configuration E-Series).<ref name="US_Transit_press_release">{{cite web|title=ALL-NEW FORD TRANSIT: BETTER GAS MILEAGE THAN E-SERIES; BEST-IN-CLASS GAS ENGINE TORQUE, CARGO CAPACITY|url=https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2014/06/04/all-new-ford-transit.html|access-date=August 7, 2018|publisher=Ford Motor Company}}</ref>  The long-running Twin I-Beams of the E-Series were retired, as the fourth-generation Transit uses MacPherson struts for the front suspension; the live rear axle is leaf-sprung.<ref name=":4" /> The model line is fitted with four-wheel disc brakes.<ref name=":4" />

==== Powertrain ====
For its worldwide introduction in 2013, the fourth-generation Transit inherited the [[Ford Duratorq engine|Duratorq]] diesel engines from the previous generation, shared with the Ranger and Mondeo. A 2.0L inline-four was introduced (for China), shared with the 2.2 and 2.4-litre inline-fours (the former, for Europe and Australia; the latter, Europe); the largest engine was a 3.2-liter inline-five (for markets outside South America). Gasoline engines were also offered, including a 2.0-liter EcoBoost inline-four (for China) and a 2.3-liter Duratec inline-four.

For production in the Americas, the Transit was offered with higher-displacement gasoline engines (shared with the F-Series). A 275&nbsp;hp 3.7L V6 was the standard engine in North America, with a 310&nbsp;hp 3.5L twin-turbo EcoBoost V6 offered in both North and South America; the 185&nbsp;hp 3.2L inline-5 was offered beginning in 2015 (renamed as a Power Stroke diesel).<ref name=":4" /> From 2015 to 2019, all engines were paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission, replaced by a [[Ford-GM 10-speed automatic transmission|10-speed automatic]] for 2020.

As an option through Ford, the 3.7L engine can be converted to run on [[compressed natural gas|compressed natural gas (CNG)]] or [[Autogas|liquefied petroleum gas (propane)]].<ref name="US_Transit_Alt_Fuel">{{cite web|title=2014 Transit: Alternative Fuel Capability|url=http://www.ford.com/commercial-trucks/transit/2014/features/#page=Feature13|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130603022724/http://www.ford.com/commercial-trucks/transit/2014/features/#page=Feature13|archive-date=June 3, 2013|access-date=June 1, 2013|publisher=Ford Motor Company}}</ref>

===Body configuration===
In a design shift, the Transit (and Transit Custom) moved from the New Edge styling of the previous generation to the ''[[Kinetic Design|Kinetic]]'' design language; the interior was influenced by the [[Ford Focus (third generation)|third-generation Ford Focus]].{{citation needed|date=November 2020}}  The fourth-generation Transit as both a van and as a chassis cab/cutaway cab; the pickup truck of the previous generation has been discontinued.  The van is offered in three different roof lengths and three different roof heights.

In most worldwide markets, the Transit passenger van is primarily marketed under the Ford Tourneo name, with Ford using the Transit name for both cargo and passenger vans in the United States and Canada. In line with other Ford trucks in North America, the Transit is marketed in XL and XLT trims. In line with the F-Series trucks (and its E-Series predecessor), in North America, the Transit is marketed in 150/250/350 (and 350HD) payload series, determined by wheelbase, body length, and roof height.

As with the E-Series and the previous-generation Transit, the model line serves as the basis for multiple commercial vehicles, including ambulances, buses, and recreational vehicles.

=== Assembly ===
Worldwide production of the fourth-generation Transit is sourced from two Ford facilities. All Transit production for Europe and Asia is sourced from [[Ford Otosan]] in [[Kocaeli Province]], Turkey; this factory provides a percentage of global exports. North American and South American production is primarily sourced from [[Ford Kansas City Assembly Plant|Kansas City Assembly]] in [[Claycomo, Missouri]]; production at the Kansas City Assembly Plant began on April 30, 2014.<ref>{{cite web|title=2,000 New Ford Kansas City Employees Celebrate Start of Production of Game-Changing 2015 Ford Transit Van|url=https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2014/04/30/new-kansas-city-employees-celebrate-start-of-2015-transit-production.html|work=ford.com}}</ref>

In North America, the model line was launched as a 2015 model, adopting the Transit name for both cargo and passenger vans (rather than using the Tourneo name used in other markets for passenger vans).

== China production <span class="anchor" id="China"></span>==

=== Second generation Transit (1997–2016) ===
Introduced in 1997, the Ford Transit VJX6541DK-M is a license-built version of the Transit assembled by [[Jiangling Motors|Jiangling Motors (JMC)]] in [[Nanchang]].  Produced solely for the Chinese domestic market, it was derived from the second-generation VE6/VE83/VE94 platform.  Over its Ford predecessor produced from 1986 to 2000, JMC made 70 major updates to the design.  The exterior was distinguished by revision to the front fascia, including larger front headlamps and a redesigned grille and front bumper. The interior saw several ergonomic improvements, along with the standardization of power windows.  ABS was offered as an option.  The top speed is specified at {{convert|68.35|mph|km/h|0|abbr=on}}.

Sharing its underpinnings with the second-generation Transit, the JMC-built Transit differed substantially in its powertrain configuration. In place of Ford produced engines, the model line used a 92&nbsp;kW Mitsubishi-produced 2.4&nbsp;L inline-4. Two Isuzu-produced 2.8&nbsp;L inline-4 diesels were offered; a naturally aspirated version offering 67.6&nbsp;kW-68&nbsp;kW and a turbocharged, intercooled version, offering 80–85&nbsp;kW.

In 2008, Ford commenced sales of the V347/V348 Transit in China alongside its JMC-produced counterpart, branded the Ford-produced van as the ''New Transit'' and the JMC van as the ''Transit Classic''.<ref name=":0">{{cite web |last=Peskett |first=Karl |date=January 30, 2010 |title=Ford Transit production in China also stopped due to pedal issues |url=http://www.caradvice.com.au/55108/ford-transit-production-in-china-also-stopped-due-to-pedal-issues/ |access-date=July 26, 2010 |publisher=Car Advice}}</ref> Between the two manufacturers, a combined 210,000 examples of both generations were sold in China; in 2012, Ford expanded operations, allowing production capacity to expand to 300,000 vehicles.<ref>{{cite web |date=July 18, 2010 |title=Ford breaks ground on $300 million China plant |url=https://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100718/bs_nm/us_ford_jiangling_china |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100722122441/http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100718/bs_nm/us_ford_jiangling_china |archive-date=July 22, 2010 |access-date=July 26, 2010 |publisher=Yahoo!

{{main|JMC Teshun}}
<!--information taken from: http://www.jmc.com.cn/ -->
Starting from May 2017, Jiangling Motors replaced the license-built Ford Transit with the [[JMC Teshun]] range of vans.  While sharing much of its body with its predecessor, the Teshun underwent a redesign of the front fascia with a larger front bumper and grille.<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Wang |first=Joey |date=May 12, 2017 |title=The JMC Teshun Is A Ford Tansit Turned Storm Trooper |url=https://carnewschina.com/2017/05/12/jmc-teshun-ford-tansit-turned-storm-trooper/ |access-date=April 15, 2019 |website=CarNewsChina.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |last=Ning |first=W.

In August 2021, a facelift of Teshun was unveiled, updates include a redesign of the front fascia, grille, headlamps, and front bumper. The rear of the car has not changed. In terms of power, the 2.4-liter gasoline engine was removed. The original 2.8L turbo-diesel inline-four engine has been upgraded to increase the output to {{cvt|122|PS|kW|0|disp=flip}} and {{cvt|285|Nm|lbft|0}}. <gallery>

====2021 Ford Transit Pro====
The model line received a facelift for 2021 production, unveiled as the Ford Transit Pro at the 2020 Beijing Auto Show.  Distinguished by a restyled front end and restyled taillamps, the revision included an updated powertrain to fulfill the National Standard VI emissions standard in China.  The updated engine is a {{cvt|190|PS|kW|0|disp=flip}} and {{cvt|360|Nm|lbft|0}} 2.2-litre diesel engine paired to a 6-speed manual transmission.<ref>{{Cite web |title=北京车展：福特全顺Pro预售16.88万起 |url=https://www.autohome.com.cn/news/202009/1042117.html#pvareaid=104378 |website=car.autohome.com.cn}}</ref>

===Transit T8 (2023-present)===
In August 2023, the fourth-generation Ford Transit was introduced to the Chinese market for the first time by JMC Ford.  Restyled and named the Transit T8, the vehicle was originally codenamed Transit V363.  Currently, JMC Ford offers the Transit T8 with either an electric motor or two different diesel engines: either the 2.3L turbo fifth generation Ford Puma diesel engine or a 2.0L turbodiesel engine.<ref>{{cite news |date=August 27, 2023 |title=媲美家用车！江铃福特全顺T8首发亮相 |url=https://www.autohome.com.cn/news/202308/1287726.html |access-date=October 7, 2023 |work=autohome.com.cn}}</ref> A 6 speed manual transmission option is available alongside an 8 speed automatic option.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://car.autohome.com.cn/price/series-7482.html#pvareaid100144|title=Ford Transit T8 range}}</ref>{{clear}}

== Variants ==

=== Tourneo ===
[[File:Metropolitan Police Ford Tourneo.JPG|thumb|left|Ford Tourneo with [[Metropolitan Police]], based on the third generation Transit]]
[[File:Ford Tourneo, Mark 5, rear view.jpg|thumb|right|Ford Tourneo based on the second generation Transit]]

Introduced as part of the 1994 redesign of the Transit, the Tourneo is a Transit-based 8 or 9-seat minibus, but over the years has become increasingly better trimmed up to the point where it can almost be classified as a large MPV. Featuring back seats and back windows similar to a [[minivan]], the Tourneo is also considered an [[Executive car|executive]] transport vehicle and is often supplied with alloy wheels. Since its introduction, the Tourneo has followed the same development cycle as the Transit; both versions receive updates at the same time.

A smaller MPV version of the Tourneo was introduced in 2002; branded the [[Ford Transit Connect#Tourneo Connect|Tourneo Connect]], it was based on the Transit Connect [[mini MPV]].

The version based on the fourth generation Transit is marketed as the Ford Tourneo Custom, and from 2019 has a [[plug-in hybrid]] engine option.<ref name="ford-tourneocustom">{{cite web |title=Ford Tourneo Custom |url=https://www.ford.co.uk/cars/tourneo-custom |access-date=August 8, 2020 |publisher=Ford}}</ref><ref name="hj-20190923">{{cite web |date=September 23, 2019 |title=Review: Ford Tourneo Custom (2013) |url=https://vans.honestjohn.co.uk/van-reviews/ford/tourneo-custom-2013/ |access-date=August 8, 2020 |publisher=HonestJohn.co.uk}}</ref>

=== County 4×4 ===
[[File:Ford Transit County 4x4.jpg|thumb|Mk3 County 4×4 Transit]]
A handful of companies offered four-wheel-drive conversions, such as County Tractors of Knighton in Powys, Wales, UK<ref>{{cite web |title=History |url=http://www.transitcounty4x4.co.uk/ |publisher=Ford Transit County 4X4 |access-date=March 17, 2011 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111108002600/http://www.transitcounty4x4.co.uk/ |archive-date=November 8, 2011 }}</ref> who converted vans on behalf of Ford as a [[Special Vehicle Operations]] factory option. The first Transit County models were based on the Mk2 Transit model, both long and short wheelbase. The conversion used a [[Dana Holding Corporation|Dana]] 44F front axle and a NP208 transfer box, both lifted from the [[Ford Bronco#Second generation (1978)|Ford Bronco]], coupled to the regular Transit engine, gearbox and rear axle using three custom propshafts. The Transit rear axle was retained, mounted to a rear subframe or 'lift cradle' to give the extra ride height. Other modifications were 16-inch wheel rims, locking front hubs, a heavy-duty steering box and 305&nbsp;mm diameter front brake discs.

With the introduction of the Mk3 Transit in 1986 came the next generation of the County 4×4. This would prove to be a very popular and successful version of the County Transit 4×4, and the last to use the Dana beam axle layout. Later County 4×4 models switched to using an independent front suspension setup which was inherently more complex in design than the earlier beam axle models. Later panel vans also lost the twin-wheel rear axle that had been fitted on earlier LWB versions.

Mainly used by utility companies such as [[National Grid plc|National Grid]] (UK), the [[Ministry of Defence (United Kingdom)|Ministry of Defence]] (UK), and by mountain rescue teams, the Transit County 4×4 proved to be a capable vehicle both on and off-road, with the ability to carry both crew and equipment just about anywhere.

Design and supply of drivetrain components for County 4×4 models passed to Countytrac, a division of M.J. Allen Ltd, who are still involved in the development of the latest Mk7 AWD Transit and Connect models.{{Clear}}
