E-Transit customers have already driven more than 12 million miles in the U.S and Canada since February 2022.

 

With telematics data from the past year, Ford Pro has uncovered some eye-opening sustainability data that will only increase as more E-Transit vans are adopted:

·        To date, E-Transit has saved more than 745,000 gallons of gas and more than 4.3 million kg of CO2 as compared to its gas-powered Transit equivalent

·        Furthermore, driving an E-Transit™ low-roof van could have a 57% reduced CO2 output vs. the internal combustion equivalent over its lifetime.

 

But E-Transit is not just good for the environment, it has proven good for businesses in every corner of the economy:

 

·        The Ford E-Transit van is the best-selling electric van in the United States, Canada, and Europe.

·        In the U.S. 6,500 E-Transit vans were sold through December 2022.

o   Deliveries have occurred in all 50 states.

·        E-Transit represents roughly 61% of the electric van market today.

·        Of the 30 vocations recognized by S&P Global Mobility, E-Transit is the current sales leader in 28 – including construction, retail, and government customers.

 

“Businesses looking to adopt battery electric technology is happening at a global scale, and E-Transit – along with the Ford Pro™ one-stop shop of software, services and charging solutions – is at the forefront of that revolution,” said Ted Cannis, Ford Pro CEO. “In its first year on the road, E-Transit has made an immediate impact, and we are just getting started.”

As demand for the vehicle rises, Ford announced last week it will be boosting E-Transit production at Kansas City Assembly Plant starting next month.
