Here’s everything we know about the 2022 Ford E-Transit coming soon!
Posted on March 22, 2021
The Ford Transit no longer needs introduction. Produced since 1965, it is a true veteran in the utility vehicle segment. However, it has evolved with the times, offering services and reliability that have continued to improve over the years, to the point where it has established itself as a true benchmark for vans of its size. However, competition has intensified considerably in recent years. Even so, the Transit has used this opportunity to surpass itself even further and solidify its status as king of the class. And the latest addition to widen the gap with its rivals is the all-new 2022 Ford E-Transit, an all-electric version of Ford’s flagship cargo van. Discover all its features today at 440 Ford, your Ford dealer of choice in Laval, on the North Shore of Montreal!
Same solid lines as the regular Transit, except for a few differences
First of all, the design of the 2022 E-Transit. On this first topic, it's quite simple: the features it sports are in every way similar to the regular Transit. Why change a recipe that works? This is how you will find familiar lines that give the Transit the extraordinary capabilities for which it is known! Distinctly cubic volumes and high roof clearance for better loading capacity: the new E-Transit loudly and clearly asserts its vocation as a commercial vehicle!
For all that, contrary to what we regularly see with this type of vehicle, it presents a certain elegance in its lines, particularly in the front and rear fascia. Chrome-ringed grille, tapered headlights and expressive taillights: the E-Transit proves that it’s possible to have both a strong stance and great class! Finally, this new version of the Ford van doesn't forget to visually show its very technological side with horizontal blue bars in the front grille, and a trim of the same color under the model name. So you can make deliveries in style aboard your 2022 Ford E-Transit, anywhere in the Laval region on the North Shore of Montreal!
The all-electric powertrain: THE innovation that changes the game in Montreal
Discreet with its minor exterior aesthetic changes, it's quite a different story when it comes to the E-Transit's powertrain. Indeed: bye-bye combustion engines, make way for the electricity fairy! The Ford mid-size commercial van houses a powertrain with a 67-kWh battery that, according to Ford, will offer a range of 200 kilometres. You'll also be able to charge this battery up to the equivalent of a distance of almost 50 kilometres in just 10 minutes if you plug your E-Transit into a fast-charging station. Besides, with its 266 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of maximum torque available instantly (electric motors for the win!), the E-Transit promises to be responsive, and therefore attractive to drive while also able to move easily on the roads between Laval and the rest of Montreal, even with a full load. Thank you Ford Canada!
Ultra-technological interior in line with its status as the van of the future!
Finally, the best for last: the interior of the Ford E-Transit! What is startling here is that we are far from a traditional commercial vehicle cabin! Indeed, the E-Transit shows a design with similar features to those of a normal car. The steering wheel is rather vertical and lower, the dashboard has sober lines, and the screen is in the center of the dashboard: the interior of the 2022 Ford E-Transit looks surprisingly similar to that of a passenger car, and that's all the better! It's also a van with state-of-the-art equipment, which is surprising for a vehicle of this type. Latest generation SYNC 4 infotainment system with a 12" touchscreen display, various standard driver assistance devices, or Pro Power Onboard technology, which transforms your E-Transit into a generator with enough charge to power various tools: depending on the model you choose, the E-Transit will allow you to handle your hard-working days with absolute serenity and comfort! The 2022 Ford E-Transit should be available at the end of 2021 at prices starting at $58,000. It should normally benefit from an 8-year or 160,000 km warranty. With such coverage, you can leave for work with peace of mind!
