Ford Vietnam has just announced the registration of industrial design protection for the new generation Ford Transit minivan model, expected to be launched in the Vietnamese market. This application was filed on April 12, 2023 and the official announcement was made on December 25.
This new generation minivan is still a version for the Chinese market, not a global version. The Transit minivan continues to be developed and produced by the JMC - Ford joint venture that developed the Territory SUV.
The 2024 Ford Transit promises to bring many choices to Vietnamese consumers with two cargo and passenger variants. Three wheelbase versions, including short (3,000 mm), medium (3,300 mm) and long (3,750 mm), along with two roof height options (medium and high), this model meets diverse usage needs.
In terms of exterior design, the cargo version has the typical features of the Ranger pickup line when equipped with C-shaped headlights along with a horizontal bar on the grille. While the passenger version brings a luxurious appearance with soft chrome details.
In the Chinese market, the 2024 Ford Transit has many significant improvements in the cabin. The large dashboard with dual 12.3-inch screens provides a modern and convenient working space. At the same time, features such as smart keys, voice interaction, heated seats and steering wheel are just a small part of the list of amenities.
The price and engine when this model is launched in Vietnam are unknown, but in the Chinese market, the 2024 Transit is equipped with a 2.3L PUMA diesel engine with a capacity of 175 horsepower and 430 Nm of torque, combined with an optional 8-speed ZF automatic transmission or 6-speed and 7-speed Magna manual transmission.
In addition, the Ford Transit also has a 2.0L diesel engine version, with a capacity of 154 horsepower and 390 Nm of torque, a 6-speed or 7-speed manual transmission. In terms of safety equipment, the new Ford Transit has a level 2.5 advanced driver assistance package (ADAS) and a Bosch body stabilization system. The chassis of the new Transit is reinforced with 68 points of boron steel.
The new Ford Transit also impresses with its RAS air suspension system, which allows the driver to adjust the vehicle's ground clearance via the control screen, creating a comfortable and flexible driving experience. The testing and corrosion standards of the new generation Ford Transit also exceed industry requirements, promising to bring peace of mind to users.
