Ford: Emission-free 8-seater

ONE FOR ALL The new Ford E-Tourneo Custom is a people carrier with all-electric drive and superior space. The body design and the equipment with variable seating positions are also attractive.

Ford E-Tourneo
Ford's E-Tourneo Custom is a versatile, high-performance electric van.

The new generation of the Tourneo Custom is driven purely electrically. Ford Pro presents the E-Tourneo Custom, the top model in the successful series that enjoys great popularity among families and commercial customers. The locally emission-free multifunction vehicle in the 1-ton payload segment is based on a new platform and offers space for up to eight people. It combines high suspension and noise comfort with a powerful e-drive with a range of up to 370 kilometers.

Variable interior
Features include a flexible mounting system for the rear seats, sliding doors that slide open and closed without contact, a powerful sound system from B&O, digital key cards and a large glass roof. The innovative tilt steering wheel converts into a handy holder for a laptop or serves as a small table when the vehicle is stationary. The market launch of the new E-Transit Custom in Switzerland is scheduled for mid-2023. Ford will announce sales prices and equipment details a little later.

Freedom and adventure electric
The E-Tourneo Custom uses the same battery cell technology as the all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup model. The battery provides a net 74 kWh and enables the electric motor to deliver 160 kW (218 hp) of power. Single-pedal driving is possible with the E-Tourneo in most traffic situations. At a 125-kW fast-charging station, the battery can be filled from 15 to 80 percent in just over 41 minutes. Ford's Pro Power onboard system supplies up to 2.3 kW of power to the socket in the passenger compartment.

Also a towing vehicle
The newcomer hooks up trailers weighing up to two tons and combines this with a considerable payload. The model is available with two wheelbases and three rows of seats. A seating package with a double passenger seat for as many as nine people is available on request. Among the striking interior details is the rail system for the seat mounts in the second and third rows, which offers versatile arrangement options.
