Ford Unveils 2025 E-Transit: The Future of Cargo Vans

The 2025 Ford E-Transit has been launched, presenting a significant advancement in the electric cargo van market. This all-electric vehicle is designed to meet the daily demands of businesses, boasting a range of 256 kilometres on a full charge, making it ideal for urban work scenarios. It is particularly well-suited for tradespeople and logistics operations, allowing for efficient transportation and delivery without the noise pollution associated with traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles.
The E-Transit is available in various configurations, including long lengths with different roof heights. It is powered by a single 89-kWh lithium-ion battery that delivers 198 kW (approximately 266 horsepower) and 317 lb-ft of torque. This combination provides robust performance essential for carrying heavy loads. The vehicle features a rear-mounted electric motor and a one-speed transmission, which contributes to a smooth driving experience.
Charging and Versatility
Charging capabilities have improved significantly with the 2025 model. Equipped with dual onboard chargers, the E-Transit can achieve a peak fast-charging rate of 176 kWh. According to Ford, just 15 minutes of charging can add up to 107 km of range. Though real-world charging times may vary, the vehicle is designed for overnight charging, achieving a full charge in approximately six hours when connected to a Ford Pro Series 2 80A charging station.
The inclusion of the Pro Power Onboard feature allows users to plug in tools and equipment directly from the van’s battery. This eliminates the need for external generators and enhances the vehicle’s utility for tradespeople. The system can be easily activated and is designed to conserve battery life by shutting down when the charge reaches a specified low level.
Driving Experience and Market Position
In terms of driving experience, the E-Transit feels much like a traditional cargo van, with no unusual electric vehicle characteristics in its controls or displays. The vehicle maintains a familiar fuel gauge interface, indicating energy levels in a straightforward manner. Upon starting the E-Transit, drivers can expect immediate acceleration, characteristic of electric vehicles, which can be particularly beneficial in urban settings.
While the E-Transit excels in performance and practicality, its pricing poses a challenge for widespread adoption. The base MSRP is set at $72,695, compared to the ICE version starting at $58,595, creating a notable price gap of $14,100. This difference may deter some potential buyers, despite the long-term savings associated with electric vehicle operation.
In the competitive landscape, the E-Transit faces rivals such as the Ram ProMaster priced at $76,999, the Mercedes-Benz eSprinter starting at $87,498, and GM’s BrightDrop at $102,805. These vehicles highlight a growing interest in the electric commercial van segment, although the market remains relatively small.
Overall, the 2025 Ford E-Transit represents a solid choice for businesses seeking a reliable electric cargo van. Its combination of power, range, and innovative features positions it as a leader in the evolving electric vehicle market. Ford’s commitment to maintaining the E-Transit’s traditional cargo van design while incorporating modern electric technology has proven effective, making it a compelling option for companies looking to transition to sustainable transportation solutions.
