Overview

The Ford Transit is a family of light commercial vehicles manufactured by the Ford Motor Company since 1965. This generation specifically refers to the model produced from 2015 onwards in North America, replacing the Ford E-Series van. The vehicle is available as a cargo van, passenger van (marketed as the Ford Tourneo), minibus, cutaway chassis, and pickup truck. It has been successful in North America since its introduction, quickly becoming the best-selling van of any type in the United States, including minivans. This generation features advanced technology and improved fuel efficiency compared to previous models.

History & notable variants

The current generation of Ford Transit was introduced in 2015 for the North American market as a replacement for the E-Series vans. It marks a significant shift from the earlier European-focused designs, adapting to meet specific needs of the North American commercial vehicle market. The model has been well-received and continues to dominate sales.

Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
